After almost 20 years of Australia’s best battling it out on Mt Buninyong a new challenge in the heart of Perth will put riders to the test.
The 13.6-kilometre circuit twists and turns through King’s Park before the peloton race alongside spectacular waterfront views beside the Swan River and into the CBD.
The punchy climb up William Street and Malcolm Street tops out just 400 metres before the finish straight. These late pinches, combined with an uphill drag within the park, make for a course that will suit a wide range of riders, making it anyone’s race.
