Amy’s Gran Fondo Continues In 2025!
The Story Behind The World-Class Event
The inaugural Amy’s Great Ocean Road Gran Fondo was hosted in 2011 following the tragic death of Amy Gillett, an elite cyclist who tragically lost her life while training with the Australian Women’s Cycling Team in Germany.
The annual event features the roads that Amy trained on, including Australia’s most spectacular stretch of coastal road, the Great Ocean Road in Victoria.
The Amy Gillett Foundation’s Mission is to improve the relationship between motorists and cyclists, and cyclists and pedestrians, and to enhance safety by separating road users through law, technology and physical infrastructure.
The next Amy’s Great Ocean Road Gran Fondo will be a public recreational ride, held on the same morning as the 2025 UCI Gran Fondo World Championships on October 19th, 2025.
