Cloudride Prologue 2018

The intention of the Cloudride Prologue 2018 is to provide an entry level for first time bikepacking racers to test gear and themselves over two or three days and gain an experience of the terrain and the fatigue levels that they will encounter on the full 1,000km Monaro Cloudride. A secondary option of the  Prologue is for strong but time poor XC racers who want to dig a little deeper without having to commit to the expense of a full multi-day bikepacking rig. These riders will need to meet the navigation challenges, ride light, ride hard and hit the ’sleep/food’ options to make it work. The provisional route is currently at 527km and has 9,980m of elevation gain.
