Bike-riding - a New Year's 'Resolution'?

A new addition to the Tasmanian Christmas Carnivals, the long-running track racing series currently underway on Australia's 'Apple Isle', is a community ride that will take place at the civilised time of 10am on New Year's Day, perfect for shaking off the effects of over-indulging the previous evening.

The "New Year's Resolution Ride" will feature some of the star riders of the Christmas Carnivals, such as Australian sprinter, Ben Kersten, and American, Jame Carney, as well as Tasmanian and Six Day cycling legend Danny Clarke. The length is in keeping with the likely state of many participants - a gentle 14km - but it is also designed to allow families to get out on their bikes and ride together in a safe, police-supported environment.
