Ballarat's long reign as host of Australian Road Championships set to end in 2025

Ballarat and the Buninyong road race course of the Australian National Championships has been home to the battle for the green and gold striped jersey for nearly two decades, but that is likely to change in 2025. AusCycling has announced that while the regional Victorian city will host the event again in 2024 – from January 4 to January 7 – after that it will be looking elsewhere.

"Ballarat has been an incredible host of the Road National Championships for the past 18 years and we value our partnerships with City of Ballarat, Visit Victoria, Federation University and our other great sponsors," Kipp Kaufmann, AusCycling Executive General Manager Sport said in response to an email query from Cyclingnews.
