I'm cookin'
Four days of riding and a 3 night stay away - fantastic riding through South Gippsland, Wilson's Prom and beyond.
Our base will be the township of Meeniyan. I've done a deal with the Motel there and booked out the whole place with a 20% discount off the advertised high season rates for three nights. Meeniyan is a small town promoting itself as a gateway to Wilsons Prom. Apart from our Motel it has a great pub, a number of cafes and restaurants, as well as an IGA supermarket and a petrol station. It ticks all the boxes for a group ride.
Room options have been posted. Scroll below to claim a room. With Julie away, I'll be doing a recce ride / drive this week to cement this in. Stay tuned for more.
Ride details / meeting points / will be posted soon as they are confirmed. The ride wil be led by PX - so get your 2-strokes ready. I have invited David to help plan this ride too... so let's see what happens.
The event picture is of Betty Nyguen. This picture was taken on a ride through South Gippsland 10 years ago. Sadly, Betty passed away earlier this year. This ride is in her memory.
Day 1 - Grand Ridge Road to Meeniyan
Accommodation - The Meeniyan Motel
The Motel has a spacious central outdoor recreation area and BBQ, and we'll have whole place to ourselves. With the room kitchen facilities and a local IGA supermarket, we can easily accommodate local public holiday closures, on-site meals and partying.
"Just across the road from The Great Southern Rail Trail and a short drive to beaches, wineries and other local attractions, Meeniyan Motel features free WiFi, lush gardens, free on-site parking and a variety of room types. Guests enjoy an outdoor kitchen with communal BBQ facilities. Located next to the local pub, Motel Meeniyan is within 5 minutes' walk of shops, cafes and dining options. It is central to all South Gippsland attractions. Meeniyan Motel is 30 minutes' drive from Wilsons Prom National Park. The property is ideally located for exploring the Great Southern Rail Trail Bike Track, which is located next to the property."

Ok Carl - done
Hi Greg
Please put Annette Murphy and myself down for a double room.
Cheers Carl
I did a recce drive yesterday and today and checked out some excellent roads. We'll do The Grand Ridge Road straight up on the first day - beautiful. The road from archies Creek to Loch is also great. The Motel facility is excellent - older style motel but maintained to a very high and clean standard. Beds arer great. Outdoor BBQ and sitting area also really good. If you'd like to reserve aroom, we are open.
Hi Alex, we will bill you in Sept.... no hurry.
