What has been called one of the most difficult bike races in the world has begun. The 1200km Croc Trophy Race commenced in CAIRNS Esplanade in Australia and went from Copperlode Dam through the rainforest to Lake Tinaroo, just on opening day.

Last year’s trophy winner, Dutchman and former world champion Bart Brentjens, knows that it will not be an easy task, “You’re going to be riding between five and six hours every day and the circumstances you have to recover in are going to be difficult.”

While the race will be grueling for the riders, it will be a great opportunity to advertise for the region that is being biked.

The Croc Trophy will finish on October 29.
