As the name suggests, the race starts at Avalon Airport and ends at Warrnambool, approximately 262kms away. The route used for the cycling race has been consistent over the years. Still, amendments to be made annually will require participants to familiarise themselves with the terrain and for spectators to know the best viewing points.

Typically, the race starts with a mass start before cyclists are separated into their respective categories: NRS Riders, Grace B, Grade C and Grade D riders. Note, too, that the NRS riders constitute the Grade A category.
