415
416<p>Do you have like-minded cycling friends or colleagues? If so, why not join together with your work-mates, gym buddies or your friends and participate in the Northern Star Community Challenge as a four-person relay team?&nbsp;</p>
417
418<p>The Northern Star Community Challenge is the Menzies Classic course (132km) and is&nbsp;broken up into four approximately equal sections. The first rider completes the section out of Kalgoorlie to Paddington, hands over to their team-mate who then pedals off to Davyhurst. Here number 3 team member is waiting. Number 3 pedals onwards to Comet Vale where the final team member will then cross the finishing line in Menzies or all team members can cross the line together.&nbsp;</p>
419
420<p>Each team will need a vehicle and support person to carry all riders and equipment. Each team is responsible for placing its own rider at each handover point.&nbsp;</p>
