  • Challenge 2025

    This year’s Challenge may have a slightly different format from past events.

    Staff at Macquarie University in Sydney has proposed running short course speed challenge at the Gosford velodrome later this year under the OzHPV banner.

    This event would be open to competitors utilising either faired or unfaired trikes that are challenging records that would have average speeds that would be safe for the banking at this location.

    The challenge has always aimed to test riders and human powered vehicles in a broad range of events to work out the best overall and races have included time trials, 1 hour circuit races, off road races, criterium races, twin slalom and shopping race with the overall winners the best in the whole range of events.

    In keeping with this philosophy the short course speed challenge could replace the traditional speed events with the practicality tests next day.

    Feedback on this concept is welcome from all interested parties.

    Please let us know if you are interested.
