Don\u2019t be fooled by the steady start though\u2014the first 25km packs in the biggest climbs of the day. These early ascents are where you\u2019ll do most of the hard work, so pacing is key. Ride within yourself, settle into a comfortable effort, and you\u2019ll set yourself up perfectly for the distance ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-9e507d3058f5f949b787a48c24968c07\">At 25km, you\u2019ll reach the first feed station. It\u2019s a great point to refuel, take stock, and enjoy the sense that the toughest climbing is already behind you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e2ce3ad44faeaef834a6d05a66b34a30\">From here, the route begins to open up into more rolling and flowing terrain. There\u2019s still plenty to keep you engaged, but the gradients are more forgiving, allowing you to find a steady cruising pace and really enjoy the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-a1c64434bd6c44d3c1a12940ec1b9d2a\">The second feed station at around 40km comes at just the right time\u2014top up bottles, grab some fuel, and prepare for the longer second half of the route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-21f195cf9a5e46e50361a1976eedb93d\">Beyond this point, the challenge becomes less about steep climbs and more about endurance. The route continues through a mix of undulating roads and smoother sections where you can settle into a rhythm, manage your effort, and tick off the kilometres. Ride smart here, and you\u2019ll find the distance very manageable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-a113066b300428883c26f841a6e13d45\">As you head into the final stretch, the sense of achievement really builds. The terrain remains rideable, giving you the chance to keep turning the pedals and finish strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-ae20c78637b97c07d0c84e1a5620dcb9\">With mechanical support and first aid available throughout the event, you can ride with confidence knowing help is on hand if you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-ba2c6956126a3308ebdbf7cab5010fe5\">Overall, the 100km route is a rewarding step up\u2014front-loaded with climbing, then opening into a ride that\u2019s all about pacing, resilience, and enjoying the journey. Cross the finish line, and you\u2019ll know you\u2019ve earned it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"gap: 20px;\" class=\"align-button-center ub-buttons orientation-button-row ub-flex-wrap
