Peaks Challenge Falls Creek is a 235km mass-participation ride organised by the Bicycle Network. Starting and finishing at Falls Creek, it sends ±2,000 riders down from the ski resort to Mount Beauty and onwards to a stunning loop around Victoria's High Country, via Tawonga Gap, Mount Hotham, Omeo, and then back up the steep road at the 'Back Of Falls' for the finish.
In a few short years, 'Peaks' has earned a strong following from cycling enthusiasts and it has always attracted a big crowd of riders... but the 2023 event had to be cancelled because of road slips near Falls Creek.
The good news for those who missed out this year is that Peaks Challenge is on again in 2024.
Find out more about the most recent edition in a write-up on ridemedia.com.au (full link below) – or a series of videos from my first experience of riding in Victoria's High Country (again, see links below).

This clip is a flashback to the 2022 Peaks Challenge Falls Creek, and a prompter to get people to sign on for the 2024 event.
The early-bird entries – offering a significant saving – are open until 26 November 2023.
