It’s raced in South Australia, with all of the stages starting and finishing within two hours drive of Adelaide.

It also features a criterium classic, which is raced on the Sunday night before the race itself begins.

The 2020 edition runs from Tuesday, January 21 until Sunday, January 26.

South Africa’s Daryl Impey is the current champion and is the first person in race history to win in successive years.
