South Coast Cycling Club Junior Tour 2026

On the "beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula", this junior tour is set in the Southern Vales region among the vineyards near McLaren Flat. The South Coast Cycling Club Junior Tour 2026 is a genuine young riders' stage race: U15, U17, and U19 riders compete in four stages over two days. U13 riders participate in a shorter Saturday tour that maintains the weekend's rhythm. The racing covers local roads such as Douglas Gully Rd, Moritz Rd, Schuller Rd, Brookmans Road, and Blewitt Springs Rd, leading up to the challenge of Wickham Hill Rd. The "Hill Climb TT" stands out as a unique feature. A specific "HEADS UP - U13 Riders" note is included because they have a separate Sunday event on the same Wickham Hill climb used by the older juniors. Expect a family-oriented crowd, anxious participants pinning numbers, and many parents managing logistics between stages.
