Woodrup 5000 Award

Super Randonneur, 1000 km, 1200 km (non-PBP), Fleche Opperman, and 950 km of other road rides within four seasons

Audax Australia's highest award was instigated by Terry Gross, a past Audax Australia President and life member, as Australia's equivalent to Audax Club Parisien's Randonneur 5000 award. The award was named after Graham Woodrup.

Graham was a well known racing cyclist and Audax member who held many Australian long distance records and the world 24 hour tandem record. He also established the Murray to Moyne 24 hour ride to raise funds for local hospitals and charities.

Each recipient receives an individually engraved and numbered plaque.
