Cycle tourism advisory group established

Last Wednesday’s community forum saw a great turnout to discuss Bendigo’s cycle tourism potential. A small group of volunteers representing mountain bike and road bike riders, the rail trail and Heathcote community now forms the core of a new advisory group.

The group’s task is to assess the potential of various cycle tourism opportunities, advise council and the Bendigo Tourism Board on priorities, and assist in seeking funding opportunities.

The new group will meet within the next fortnight to map out its workplan.
