Rides in Australia's most livable country region.
With a combination of rides, meetings, and locations we offer something
for every rider and passenger.
Rides may be organised to meet on different days and/or
depart at different times from the planned dates and times.
Check the
calendar
for rides and details.
Regardless, you should be ready to roll at the designated
departure time fueled up.
The Ride Leader will usually give a brief description of
the day's ride and this will be an opportunity for you to let the leader
know your riding experience level, ask questions, or inform the leader of
other relevant details.
For groups of more than half-a-dozen riders corner marking
will apply and the Ride Leader will discuss the process to be followed
during the briefing. The Leader and TEC (tail-end charlie) will wear
fluorescent vests/jackets.
Sunday Rides:
These are held on the third Sunday of the month, leaving
McDonald's, 7-11 Horne St, Sunbury at 9:30AM (unless otherwise noted on
calendar). Please arrive early enough to go through the ride briefing and
have a full tank of fuel in your bike and belly.
Ride Leader: Please
note that the ride vests are stored at Coles/Shell Shop.
Wednesday

These rides depart from the Caltex Station, 4 Station
Road, Gisborne at 10AM. The ride destination will be determined on the day
