The Original Great Southern Brevet

Saturday, 23 January 2021

And they are off!

A very relaxed atmosphere as riders wait for the start of the 2021 edition of the Great Southern Brevet.

The peloton rolls across Tekapo Control Structure during the neutralised section on State Highway 8

And onto the serious part! The first little hill 😆

The GSB usually begins with a short shakedown section. This is designed to test whether riders have attached their gear well to the bike. It usually results in frequent stops to adjust things and pickup others jettisoned from the rough riding. 

Riders strung out along the shakedown section 😎
