Join us for one of Cycling Otago’s classics around the Taieri in honour of Bernard and Robert Thomson, who passed away well before their time. Bernard and Robert are relatives of the Thomson family, who are stalwarts in the Otago cycling community, and the club is always grateful for their continued support with this event. This 62km romp starts in Mosgiel and traverses down to and around the Berwick Block and back via Woodside, before finishing on Wairongoa Rd by the North Taieri church. This event always proves to be a hit, with great fields and races panning out in previous years, so don’t miss out!
