With the news that Glenelg and other western councils have missed out on a TDU event, does that mean that the TDU is reserved for the eastern suburbs and country towns. I understand that there could be some logistical problems but I would have thought a start in Glenelg (?) and going down Military Road, through Port Adelaide and then using Port River Expressway wouldn't have been too difficult to achieve... Just a thought.

Permalink Reply by Dahondude on June 12, 2012 at 17:58 Its not been announced yet Heather. One of the local rags reported that Glenelg has been turned down for a stage. Ditto for Norwood. TDU haven't actually announced the 2013 TDU stages, routes or start/finish towns yet.

So one would assume that the councils that have won a start or finish haven't been told yet otherwise the leaks would be coming fast and furious.
