Southern Cross Touring Road Event

The inaugural Southern Cross Touring Road Event is planned to start simultaneously from Victoria and Queensland on Friday, 5 September. All overnight stops will be in New South Wales and each day’s run will cover between 300 km and 500 km. The route will include roads – now sealed – used in the long-distance car trials and forest rallies of times past. These sealed roads, plus some delightfully tricky side loops, would also be an attraction for touring bike riders. Those who prefer the challenge of gravel have also not been overlooked; there are diversions here and there to be enjoyed.

The interstate groups converge, rallye-style, at Sydney on Sunday, September 7, for a sunset Harbour Dinner Cruise. At this social gathering they meet the crews who will be travelling the TRE short-course option. The run resumes on Monday morning through inland NSW, taking in some of the State’s most picturesque roads en route to a final overnight stop at Dorrigo on Wednesday 10 September. The touring event will finish in Coffs Harbour on Thursday 11 September, but there will be many more activities to enjoy as the participants join the excitement of the World Rally Championship event.
