Guide to the MS Gong Ride - MS Australia

In November 2022, the MS Gong Ride will celebrate its 40th anniversary.

Since 1981, this iconic ride has inspired an incredible community of participants, supporters, donors, and volunteers who together help to fight against multiple sclerosis.

It is Australia’s most respected community bike ride. For 40 years, tens of thousands of cyclists have hit the pavement in this legendary ride in support of people living with multiple sclerosis.

As the name suggests, this ride begins in Sydney and finishes in Wollongong. It starts in Tempe, a suburb in the Inner West of Sydney located 9km south of Sydney central and ends at Thomas Dalton Park in Fairy Meadow, Wollongong.

There are two distances to suit riders of different levels. The full 81km route is from Tempe Recreation Reserve, and the shorter 54km route is from Preston Park in Engadine.

This year our riders will experience the ride of a lifetime.

They’ll start by pedalling along the stunning natural backdrop of the Royal National Park, enjoying the incredible ocean views from Stanwell Tops, riding over the breathtaking Sea Cliff Bridge, before crossing the finish line in Wollongong amongst a backdrop of surf, sun, and sand.

All while committing to make sure over 25,000 Australians are supported on their journey to fight MS.
