Squadron Energy Grafton to Inverell

The iconic Grafton to Inverell Cycle Classic celebrates it's 65th anniversary. The event has the reputation as the toughest one day cycle race in the country and is again part of the ProVelo Super League PSL series. The men's PSL race attracts the leading male riders in the country as they take on the 229km journey including the formidable 17km climb up the Gibraltar Range. Female PSL riders tackle a shorter distance over the challenging terrain from Mt Mitchell to Inverell (110km). Riders throughout the country can be part of the action competing over the full course distance in the Grafton to Inverell Open race. The Grafton to Inverell event will pass through Glen Innes on its journey from the Clarence Valley along the Gwydir Highway to the New England Highlands. Enjoy the spectacle as the riders contest a 'sprint' point at Standing Stones before traversing Glen Innes via Wentworth Street then Grey Street where there is a 'Feed Station' manned by supporters. The riders then re-join the Gwydir Highway for the ride to Inverell.
