The Ozzy 8 Relay is a race, a group ride, and bike festival all rolled into one. The event is all about riding/hanging out with your friends, family and local riders, while also challenging yourself or team to complete as many laps as possible. The event takes place over a 8 hour time frame on a 7 km loop course which starts and finishes in the field at Kinsmen Park. The object is NOT to finish the course first, but to complete the greatest number of laps before the end of the event either solo or as part of a relay team. This means you are never last and always riding with different people.
