About this event

Come and ride the 18th annual BBTA Warwick Supported Tour, on the weekend of  16 & 17 November 2024 with the start and finish of the ride in Cambooya, about 20 minutes south-west of Toowoomba. This is one of the BBTA's longest running weekend tours on generally quiet country roads, with Saturday's ride being 95km and the ride back on Sunday 80km. And we finish at the pub in Cambooya, so food and drink are available to celebrate the finish!
