Some information about Pedal Prix:

Pedal Prix is a sport available to our dedicated year 6 and 7 students.  There are 3 races attended each year that require student’s commitment to training, as well as their family’s availability to help out.

The race this weekend  will be the 34th running of the Australian International Pedal Prix. This race is the final Round of the UniSA Australian HPV Super Series and is regarded as the premier HPV endurance race in Australia. The 24 hour race is conducted on a 1.7 km circuit around Sturt Reserve situated on the banks of the Murray River and proudly supported by the Rural City of Murray Bridge.

200 teams, 3,000 competitors and thousands of spectators make Sturt Reserve their home for 3 days in September. 40 Houseboat moorings immediately adjacent to the track provide an alternative for those not inclined to camping with ample space inside the fully fenced reserve for teams to establish camp.
