AusCycling SA and Port Adelaide Cycling Club acknowledge that we ride and race on the traditional lands of Aboriginal People. We acknowledge that connection to country is an important part of living Aboriginal culture today.
With the Super Series fast approaching, this is your last chance to get out with your teammates and practice your leadouts and sprints. With over $2,200 worth of prizes on the line, medals for place-getters in every grade, and a perpetual trophy for the winner of the Elite Men's and Elite Women's races, you don't want to miss out.
This race will be on fully closed roads, and has an amazing mix of fast straights, technical corners, and the slightest hint of a gradient approaching the last turn. There should be something for everyone on this course.
Thanks to our generous supporters at Century 21 Barossa, TMK Consulting Engineers, and Ciovita Australia we have over $4,200 of prizes and trophies up for grabs across the event.
Men’s and Women’s elite races each feature a total of $400 in prize money, as well as a Perpetual Trophy for the champions. Senior grades will have cash prizes for 1st to 3rd, as well as the 1st woman across the line. (1st woman’s prize is equal to the winner’s prize, and women can claim a place as well as 1st woman).
There will be two Primes in each senior event, with the winners taking home a $100 voucher thanks to Ciovita Australia!
Podium place getters in all grades, including junior grades, will also take home a medal.

Do you want to race with your Super Series team, but you aren’t all in the same grade? Sandbagging will not be permitted, so no rider can race down a grade, but for this event, riders will be permitted to race up to one grade above their usual classification.
Do you want to race twice? You’re crazy! If you want to race in your usual grade, AND in your Super Series team grade, a reduced entry fee of $25 will apply for the second race. Please email president@pacc.org.au and we will invoice you separately for the 2nd race.
Riders signing up for a 2nd race will only be permitted to do so where field sizes allow. Riders wishing to ride up a grade will only be allowed where, in the opinion of the commissaires, the rider is capable of riding in the higher grade.
