Join us for the 9th Edition of Thunderbolts Adventure.
This weekend is a true adventure with nearly 5,000m of vertical climbing over 230km. Riders will enjoy supported transport for their tents to Moonan Flat but must bikepack the rest of their gear and camp overnight. New for 2025 is the revival of the one-day Monument. The Monument will start and finish at Moonan Flat on Saturday 26th April at 6:30am. Moonan Flat is the halfway point & camp spot for the Overnighters who will be able to cheer our Monument Riders as they roll in.

The One Day Monument
In 2017 we started with a group of 40 odd riders to take on the very first Thunderbolts Adventure. It was a big hairy ride covering 230km on mostly gravel roads and 5,000m of vertical climbing.
In 2025 we are bringing back The Monument. We know there are a lot of cyclists in NSW and beyond who are still keen to sign up for this mammoth challenge.
The Monument will start at 6:30am in Moonan Flat on Saturday 26th April. The Overnight Riders will be able to cheer on the Monument Finishers as they roll into camp - hopefully before dark!
