The 2022 Noosa Classic has been officially launched with the fourth annual event scheduled to take place on Sunday 14 August in the glorious Noosa region north of Brisbane.
Constantly evolving and quickly developing a reputation as Queensland’s finest Gran Fondo, the popular event will cater for all riders – from keen amateurs to top-level pros.
Run as a Queensland-only event in 2021, riders from around Australia will be thrilled to be able to return to Noosa to not only enjoy stunning cycling, but the best the iconic holiday and tourism destination has to offer.
Additionally, as in previous years, riders from places further afield such as New Zealand, Asia and Europe are expected to sign up for the event and enjoy a dream bike break in Noosa.
The August event will feature three courses – the 65km Rouleurs Classics, 120km Challenge Classic and the big one – the 160km Maxi Classic.
All courses have been painstakingly designed to offer the best of the pristine Noosa region. From the subtropical coast to the rich and lush Hinterland, riders will enjoy the best of greater Noosa.
Like many fellow cyclists from the southern states, Classics’ founder James Yaffa can’t wait to enjoy Queensland’s warm winter and again ride the Noosa region.
“We are truly excited to be heading back to Noosa for the fourth Noosa Classic,“ he said.
“And this year’s event will be particularly significant with interstate and overseas riders able to again travel to the Sunshine State. To imagine close to 2000 riders back together – after such a tumultuous period that we’ve all been through over the past few years – the 2022 Noosa Classic will offer riders, sponsors, locals and supporters a real reason to celebrate.“
Early bird pricing is now open on the event website noosaclassic.com.au where riders can find out more information about Noosa Classic pricing and offers.
“A special thank you to Tourism and Events Queensland and Noosa Shire Council,“ Mr Yaffa said.
“We also offer heartfelt thanks to local Noosa and Sunshine Coast event volunteers and supporters along with the Queensland Police for their ongoing support and assistance.
“Without event partners, the Noosa Classic simply would not be possible – we offer our sincere thanks to Volvo Car Australia, BMC, MET helmets, Fizik, Schwalbe Tyres and a host of other cycling industry luminaries.“
