Super Vets

The Geelong Super Vets was formed in June 1992 when a group of riders aged 60+ from the GVCC decided that they would like to race during the week. The first race was held at Paraparap with seven starters over 35km on June 23rd 1992. Races are open to fit men and women aged 60+ and 55+ respectively. Members have to be a member of a veteran cycling club to ride with the SuperVets.

The Geelong SuperVets is an affiliated group of the GVCC. Racing is held each Wednesday starting at 10am. Contacts are Bill McConnell (Co-Ordinator) Ph 5261 5041 or 0427 524 517 and Brian Long (Handicapper) Ph 0438 292 605. An annual feature of the SuperVet calendar is the “Melbourne Cup on Wheels” held over 34km on the second Tuesday in November.

The Geelong SuperVets is a unique group of riders with no other AVCC/VVCC affiliated group in existence in Australia.
