New beginnings and endings for Baw Baw

For the first time in the event’s six year history, a new start and finish will greet the 112 entrants for the 2006 Baw Baw Classic in Victoria, Australia, on Saturday, April 1, 2006. But the main feature of the 94.5 km race will remain: a final six kilometre surge up an incredibly steep (12% average gradient) sealed road section. Bedfore that, competitors will race 88 km through the Deli Region of Jindivick, Neerim South, Noojee, Icy Creek and Tanjil Bren.

This year's Baw Baw Classic will start at the West Gippsland Arts Centre, located next to the Baw Baw Shire Council offices who are event sponsors. The finish location remains the top of Mt Baw Baw, but will shift from the traditional carpark finish to the new Village Central venue, located opposite the Baw Baw Hotel.
