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.

Glenelg got rejected for a stage finish, not a start.

Where is a link to the info and which councils got which stages?

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.

Ah thought it was a tad early - newpapers!

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.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere recently that the Glenelg Council voted not to apply for hosting a stage of the TDU because it is too expensive for them. Possibly the same for Norwood Council.
