MURRAY TO MOYNE

Location: VIC
Date: Apr 3 - 4, 2027

The Murray to Moyne Cycle Relay is an iconic team-based road cycling event spanning 520 kilometres across regional Victoria. Starting on the banks of the Murray River in Echuca, participants ride in relay style through country townships, rolling farmland, and coastal corridors, finishing beside the Moyne River at Port Fairy. Riders take turns on the road in coordinated team rotations, tackling long distances over a single weekend while supported by dedicated support vehicles.

Established in 1987 by Hester Woodrup to commemorate her late husband Graham Woodrup, the ride began as a grassroots effort to raise funds for regional healthcare services. Over nearly four decades, the Murray to Moyne has grown into an enduring community institution, bringing together thousands of cyclists and support crews. To date, the event has raised millions of dollars directly benefiting rural hospitals, health services, emergency responders, and healthcare charities across Victoria.

The Murray to Moyne offers a unique team atmosphere where logistical planning and camaraderie match the physical demand of riding hundreds of kilometres. Teams divide the distance into manageable stints, allowing participants to share the workload, manage fatigue, and maintain steady rolling momentum. Beyond the challenge on the tarmac, the event fosters an unforgettable road trip spirit, uniting local health foundations, cycling clubs, and support crews for a shared cause.
