Tour of Gippsland 2023
2023 will see the Tour of Gippsland return as one of the premier races on the National Road Series calendar after a hugely successful 2022 edition which saw racing for the NRS Men and Women in addition to hosting one of only three U19 selection races in the country.
The National Road Series is an Australia-wide competition that features the country’s top individual cyclists and domestic teams.
Held from Friday 25 August 2023 until Sunday 27 August 2023, the Tour of Gippsland provides the perfect opportunity for some of Australia’s up and coming cyclists to race and develop. Past winners have included Olympians and future professionals who would go on to race in some of the biggest events in world cycling.
This year’s Tour of Gippsland will feature some of the iconic and picturesque features of the Bass Coast and racing on the famous Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit.
Don’t miss the opportunity to witness Australia’s next generation of professional cyclists riding on the roads near you!
To finish off the weekend the event will also include an opportunity for all graded cyclists to come and race on the GP track. The Phillip Island Classic will offer racing from U11 through to U17 and A, B, C and D graded racing. For all riders racing in the three day NRS and U19 Tour of Gippsland, entry to the Open will be included in their tour entry fee.
Entries are now open on the EntryBoss platform.
