Melbourne to Lake entrance race??

[stevendavid75]

Hi all,
I just received some older Australian cyclist magazines and was interested in a race from Melbourne to Lakes Entrance, looks like it first ran in 1948, I have never heard of it, does anyone know much about the race, how long it lasted??

Was also thinking of providing an interesting snippet or 2 as I make my way through the mags so stay tuned if at all interested.

Post those snippits....I'm always interested in cycling history.

That must have been some race. I'd like to read the article too. The Australian Cyclist was a fantastic magazine and is such a great resource for guys wanting to understand that era of cycling.
