In order to conduct a successful on-road cycling event, there are a number of issues that the organisers of these events need to consider and address. These include:

• The safety of cyclists taking part in the event;
• The safety of spectators;
• The safety of other road users.

It is important to minimise the impact of the event on the operation of the road network and on local residents.

Some types of events require the approval of the Victoria Police, local council and VicRoads.
