The Capital Divide is an unsupported cycling route that traverses the ACT. Riders can tackle the route at any time, however there will be a grand depart at 7:00am on the 20th February, for those that want to ride as part of a loosely organised group.

It’s a challenging route, with plenty of climbing, fire trails, some singletrack and the occasional unavoidable road section. This route has been created to take in some of the highlights of the ACT, and add to the rich variety of routes on offer in Canberra.

There’s no official registration, support or assistance associated with the route. It’s purely created for fun and the challenge of riding across the territory from North to South (or South to North if you want to mix it up). However, riders are able to complete a rider profile on the Capital Divide website and submit an official (unofficial) time, if they so desire.
