Prologue in the park
Prologue in the park is the Newcrest Orange Challenge’s dash for cash.
It’s a race around Robertson Park and open to anyone who thinks they’re speedy on two wheels.
There’s $1000 cash up for grabs for both the fastest male and female to complete the technical sprint course, not to mention the bragging rights over your fellow riders. And the best bit, it’s FREE to enter!
Will you be taking home the chocolates in 2021?
