Labour Day weekend 6 - 8th
“Many chances rate as winners of this years McCaig Airconditioning Bendigo International Madison. Super 6 day riders Franco Marvulli and Leif Lampater bring a quality to the field that has seemed to attract big names from not only Australia but overseas as well. Top British riders Rob Hayles and Pete Kennaugh are keen to knock the big stars off their perch in one of the most attractive fields we have seen in year. We have always attracted great riders but this year the depth is a real feature. Last years winners O’Shea and Howard are back along with The Meyer boys. Olympic Champion Brett Aitken also has a chance of winning an unprecedented sixth madison title with young super star Jack Bobridge. One thing is for sure the winner will be well deserved this year.”
Always a great weekend of racing and beers under the great southern sky.

Must have seen you guys riding…I took in some rays on the new grass terraces instead, the spectator facilities there are fantastic now
Great day (didn’t go sat) great ride from Glen O’Shea in the Maddison.
The Crit on Friday night was great - we used to luge our skateboards down that hill in Rosalind park they rode up.
