Surf Coast Classic 2026

29.01

The 2026 Men’s Surf Coast Classic was set for Thursday, January 29, a 157km race from Lorne to Torquay built around exposed coastal roads, an inland climb and a fast finish. Instead, it has been cancelled, following heightened bushfire danger and volatile weather conditions in the Great Ocean Road region. Organisers said evacuation routes needed to stay clear and emergency resources focused on public safety after talks with Victoria Police and emergency services. Tobias Lund Andresen’s title defence will have to wait.
