18.01.2022 This year, Tour de Legacy is retracing the path of the original ANZACs throughout battlefields on the Western Front in Belgium and France. We ride in commemoration of all the brave servicemen and women who have sacrificed in the line of duty. In particular, this year's ride is in tribute to Lieutenant Colin Hales, a South Australian soldier who was sadly the only officer within the 1st ANZAC Cyclist Battalion to lose his life during the war. Read more about this year's ride ...in our blog post below: https://tourdelegacy.com.au/2018/05/29/cycling-to-remember/ See more

12.01.2022 What an amazing treat last night the group had, attending a formal reception at Australia House, with Prince Edward the Duke of Kent in attendance. Thanks to Legacy London and Australia House for the warm reception kind words of encouragement.

12.01.2022 Tour de Legacy Day 3 - Ypres to Mons. Including a stop at Tynecot & Hill 62 bunkers. One of our bigger days for kms & thankfully not much elevation relative to yesterday. Perfect warm sun, cool air,blue skies and kms of potato farms. Just what cyclists love!!

09.01.2022 And the 2018 Tour de Legacy is done!! We have been both privileged and honoured to ride through Belgium and France in remembrance of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. To date we have raised close to $300,000 for Legacy while riding through the stunning country side. It has been an amazing trip and one that we will never forget.

07.01.2022 Day 2, Calais to Ypres was our first real taste of French country side and it didnt let us down. Certainly a much easier ride today after a pretty punishing day 1. I think we are still all in awe of what we are taking on and why we are doing it. Stops along the way included Dunkirk and finished in Ypres with the laying of the wreath, the last post and reading of the ode at the night ceremony at Menin Gate. We were privileged to have 3 of our very own lay a wreath in remembrance of the 10s of thousands who made the ultimate sacrifice and remain unto god. A very moving and emotional experience and one we will never forget.

06.01.2022 Were on our way!!
