Tableland Tour to scale new heights
WHEELS are already in motion to make the Tour of the Tableland the drawcard event of the regional cycling calendar after a successful return in 2017.
The Far North may not boast the picturesque castles of France but the stunning scenery of Cairns, Malanda and Atherton was the backdrop for some tight racing over two days.
It sets the tone for cycling fans excited for the start of the Tour de France and for the future of our very own tour, which is set to go to new heights next year.
Matt Driver finished at the front of a field of 55 riders after a combination of terrain and difficult weather made going tougher than some expected.
