Bike riders from Victoria and beyond are discovering the great cycling opportunities the Central Goldfields have to offer. With reasonably flat terrain and kilometres of well-maintained bush tracks, there are rides to suit any age or ability.
Cyclists to the area will find a warm welcome at Bendigo’s Goldfields Cycle Sports Club. Located at the old City Family Hotel in High Street Bendigo, the not-for-profit club was created by retired professional cyclist Ross Forster with the aim of giving back to the Central Victorian Cycling Community.
Tammy Johns is the operations manager of the club. She said they have tried to create a welcoming atmosphere for members and visitors alike.
“Patrons can enjoy light meals, snacks and beverages, in a café decorated with an eclectic mix of cycling memorabilia,” Tammy said.
“The club offers a variety of seating areas, from comfy couches, café chairs or alfresco dining with views of the Bendigo CBD.”
The Club intends to help fund resources for the Central Victorian race, recreational and commuter cycling communities, including youth development, promotion and talent identification.
