TAMWORTH FANS HEAD TO TOUR DOWN UNDER

A team of keen local cyclists are off to Adelaide for the Tour Down Under.

While they may not be competing, the fans will cycle around 500-kilometres over the next few days, watching the race from a different perspective.

They say they’re looking forward to riding new tracks through the challenging Adelaide hills.

“An opportunity I guess, to indulge in something we love, being cycling. So we actually get to ride as well as actually watch the best of the best do their thing,” Robert Wright, Tamworth Cycle Club.
