Day 1
Welcome!
Welcome to NSW and the start of your L’Étape Australia by Tour de France experience with Mummu Cycling!
Please arrive to the hotel in Kiama by 12pm, in time to check-in and set up bikes ahead of this afternoon’s spin.
Our mechanic will be on hand to assist with your bike set-up so you’re all set to go!
This afternoon, we’ll be rolling out on an exclusive course recon ride, guided by our experienced team along part of tomorrow’s route. The ride will be at a relaxed pace, approximately 45km, just enough to get the legs into gear and spin out the travel ahead of tomorrow’s BIG day.
On return, enjoy some down time, before we regather for this evening’s group welcome dinner, carbohydrate rich to fuel those engines accordingly!
*Those that are attending the Ambassadors Clinic starring Amanda Spratt and Simon Gerrans, will be transferred to and from the event before dinner.
We’ll be joined by a local expert that will share knowledge on the parts of the route we haven’t reviewed and any additional tips/advice to ensure you have the best day possible out on the bike, and most importantly – enjoy yourself out on the road!

On arrival to the finish, we’ll be waiting with a deserved cold beverage at our Mummu marquee, where you can kick back, toast to your efforts and share your days stories with fellow guests.
