How do I collect my rider pack? 

At the start location there will be a marquee set up to collect your Rider Pack. You will need to present your ticket in exchange for the Rider Pack. 

What's in the rider pack?

If you ride all sectors along the suggested route the course is approximately 40 km. You have until 4.30pm to get to the finish for the prize raffle, which gives you 5 hours if you depart at 10.30am when registration closes. This should allow time time to get lost, find yourself, repeat your favourite sector, take photos, stop for coffee, and make new bike friends.

Completing all sectors of the course is not compulsory. You will be eligible for all raffle prizes except the major prize if you don’t complete all of the sectors. You must be present at the Velodrome to collect your prize. No prizes are awarded for speed or athletic merit. This is not a race. It is a hell of a lot of fun.

If you skip a sector, or get a question wrong you will still be eligible for all the prize raffles except for for the major prize - Winner of Melburn Roobaix. 

I got to the finish first! What do I win? 

Nothing. Not for second, third or any minor placing. You’ll be twiddling your thumbs at the velodrome a long time waiting for those who got lost, stopped for coffee, and made new friends along the way.
