Uriarra | Saturday 28th April 2018

Course Description:
The Tour heads back to the Uriarra hills for the first road stage of 2018 after being left out of the 2017 edition. The revised Uriarra route offers a progressively challenging course for each step up in age group. The 2018 course will go 3km deeper into Uriarra Forest than the 2016 edition, taking in some of the ACT's most scenic terrain on modest climbs, which will decide the King/Queen-of-the-Mountains Classifications. The U9, U11 & the Participation categories will be raced on the purpose-built criterium circuit at Stromlo Forest Park.

*Nb. For U19M, WA, and WB, the Day 1 stage order will be reversed (Stage 1: Criterium, Stage 2: Road Race)

Stage 3: Road Race (flat)
Sunday 29th April 2018

Course Description:
Offering something for every type of rider, the 2nd road stage of 2018 Tour will be a stark contrast to the first. Almost perfectly flat terrain will suit the breakaway specialist / time trialist as well as being the deciding stage in the Sprint Classification (new in 2018).

Stage 4: Individual Time Trial (flat)
Sunday 29th April 2018

Course Description:
Flat time-trial courses are rare in Canberra, and the 2018 ITT course will be a chance for the pure time trialist to shine, and claw back time in the General Classification and Young Rider Classification.
