Is there an Australian 24-hour road race?

I'm seeing info for 24-hour mtn bike races, but not road races.

You got me curious, so I googled around a bit and didn't find one.

I did find the RAAM people have a list of qualifying races, which includes several 24-hour-type races in Europe. I assume if there was something similar in Australia it would be listed:

I also found some stuff about Human Powered Vehicles in 24-hour races in Australia, but it seems those were specifically HPV events.
