Happy New Year!

Bruce and the team at Bikevents Australia hope all our supporters, entrants and followers have a safe and happy 2013…. hope your training for the Cycle Challenge is coming along well too! There's only just over 2 months to go…

January is a big month for the SCODY High Country Cycle Challenge. Keep an eye out for Bruce and the SHCCC team this month at the Bay Crits, the Herald-Sun Tour, Amy's Ride (and the Australia Road Championships) at Buninyong - Go Gerro! - and the Audax Alpine Classic at Bright. It's going to be a busy month!

To celebrate the start of the new year, we also have the pleasure of announcing two more winners from the next of our monthly prize draws. Congratulations to … interminable pause here to heighten the tension for no apparent reason … just as well this isn't television, this pause might never end … is …

Fiona Chircop of Williamstown and Robyn MacKenzie of Lara, both from Victoria.

Ladies, Bruce will get your details to Continental who will get your tyres, cap and backpack to you shortly. All of us at the SHCCC hope you enjoy riding on your new GP4000s tyres (we think they're the best tyres available!) and thanks for entering the SCODY High Country Cycle Challenge.

The first prize for 2013 is terrific! With many thanks to Garmin, FIVE lucky winners will each receive a Garmin Edge 500 GPS Cycling Computer worth $299 each!

Enter the SHCCC before the end of January to be eligible to win one of these brilliant bike computers.

Finally, don't forget that you can win lots of other prizes simply by 'Liking' the SHCCC Facebook page. There are still Ground Effect vouchers and Aussie Butt Cream (for comfort down under) to be won, just by clicking a button! Just use this link.
