Come ride and celebrate the 20th annual BBTA Warwick Supported Tour with the start and finish of the ride in Cambooya, about 20 minutes south-west of Toowoomba.

This is the BBTA's longest running Members Only weekend tour. The paved country roads are generally quiet, with Saturday's updated ride being 93km and the ride back on Sunday 80km. We finish at the pub in Cambooya, so food and drink are available to celebrate the finish!
