Important Mount Egerton update!

It has just been revealed that we will not be able to use the Mount Egerton Reserve for the event on Sunday 3 June.

The event will still take place in the Whipstick Forest however this development means that the start area will be at the Ballan end of the Whipstick Forest. To get there, head south from Ballan towards Meredith on the Geelong – Ballan Road, and then turn right onto the Ballan – Egerton Road. About three kms along this road is a bridge. From the bridge, just follow the signs.

It also means that no-one will be able to camp at the Mount Egerton Reserve. Unfortunately there are no camping facilities at the revised start area. For those travelling some distance to attend, it might be a good idea to seek accommodation in nearby Ballan or Ballarat.

We apologise for any inconvenience this might cause to entrants.

On a positive note, Drakie is heading out to begin marking the course this week. He is confident that the event will be something that everyone will enjoy.

You will be able to enter on the day. Please try and bring the correct change.

After a few hiccups getting this event to happen, what else could possibly go wrong?!
