It's on Sunday 21 April 2024

Great ride had by all involved

Event date Sunday 23 April 2023

To prevent clashing with the Canberra Marathon - still a the same great event

The ever popular Five Peaks Challenge will be run for the 18th year on Sunday 16 April 2023.

200 riders enjoyed a prefect day for the Challenge - 7 to 20 degrees, light wind, some cloud and no rain

The event date have been changed to 24 April 2022 due to a conflict with another event that will be using the roads and paths in central Canberra and around Parliament House and Lake Burley Griffin. But it will be the same great event.

Save the date - Sunday 10 April 2022

This was the 17th successfully running of this classic event on 18 April 2021. It's been run each year since 2004 with the exception of last year when Covid got in the way. This year was a great day for riding - a cool start of about 6 degrees and then no more than 18 degrees during the day and, importantly, very little wind (4 to 15 km/h). There were 272 entrants (241 registered on-line and 31 did so at the start). Of those some 124 were first time rides in the event. Nearly all the riders road the six peaks - Stromlo, Red Hill, Mount Pleasant, Ainslie, Black Mountain and the Arboretum. The Club thanks all the volunteers who assisted with the event on the day including the Auroa Gungahlin Rotary Club members who set up and ran the two food stops that were appreciated by the riders. It will be on again next year on a date to be announced.
