Amy’s Gran Fondo Continues In 2024!
The Story Behind The World-Class Event
The inaugural Amy’s Great Ocean Road Gran Fondo was hosted in 2011 following the tragic death of Amy Gillett, an elite cyclist who tragically lost her life while training with the Australian Women’s Cycling Team in Germany.
The annual event features the roads that Amy trained on, including Australia’s most spectacular stretch of coastal road, the Great Ocean Road in Victoria.
The Amy Gillett Foundation’s Mission is to improve the relationship between motorists and cyclists, and cyclists and pedestrians, and to enhance safety by separating road users through law, technology and physical infrastructure.
As part of the UCI World Gran Fondo Series, the 2024 event provides the opportunity for any rider to qualify for the World Championships, which in 2025 will be hosted on the Amy’s Gran Fondo course in October of 2025.
The event organiser, O2 Events, looks forward to seeing you challenge yourself on the 122km course on September 15th, 2024!
