The Perth Coastal Bike Ride is the new look into hosting a safer and community engaging charity bike event along the West Coast of the Perth Metropolitan Region.
Many traditional aspects of routes previously designed by the Perth Integrated Events Team (PIET) some 16 years ago are now deemed to be traffic density intensive and we have therefore examined and explored new routes to ensure that events we produce a not only fresh and engaging but also acceptance progressive challenges for the discerning cyclist.
The event will have these key indices that will drive community engagement and participation:
*Coverage of coastal routes from Hillarys to Two Rocks.
*The same start/finish location for the Event Village.
*Expanding the fundraising for up to six charity groups that will be agreeable with our vision of shared community.
*Working with established partners whom we have vetted for safety and wellbeing.
PIET has been at the helm of event managing cycling based events for the past 25 years with known previous events such as the Ocean Ride, Tour de Gracetown, Tims Ride, Tour of York, Tour of Toodyay and in recent times City of Armadale Gran Fondo, Perth Hills Gran Fondo, Albany Ride, Tour of Cowaramup, Tour of the Jacarandas and the Bridges Night Ride.
