We did this ride exactly 12 months ago. What a year it has been.

The Brisbane Ranges.

Done this one before? Do it again. New to the Club? This is a great first ride and suitable for all bikes. Some excellent Springtime roads and riding - it's time for some good stretches and to get those scooters purring. Calling you all out to ride!

Melb departure Point leaving 9.30 am.
Caltex Service Station, Cnr Little Boundary and Pipe Roads, Laverton North VIC 3026. This is our new western meet spot - a 24 hour Service Station with food and coffee available on site. It's a very quick get away from the city too. MAP > Caltex meeting point

Don't miss this ride - just beautiful with some surprises. 

Arrive in Meredith at approx 11.00 after 110 km. It's time for coffee, look around, and fuel top up.

We'll get away by 2 pm and get back via Werribee to Melbourne at 3 pm, well before any expected rain. Err... do you really want to visit the fairy park? Please let us all know.

We'll finish the ride in Yarraville and say our bye byes.

Ride suitable for all scooters and rider experience. A couple of 100 kph short stretches. Short stretch of dirt road. Back roads - no freeway, just nice. Great first ride out with the Club if you are ready. Click the image below to view / download the route on Plotaroute.

    Hi Tufan ...I suggest the Geelong riders meet at the waterfront Geelong at 9.30am wiht a planned departure at 9.45am. Hope to see you there :)

    Geelong Riders - if people are thinking about this - we'd leave around 9.45 - to be confirmed - names down so we can confirm. If you haven't down this before, it's a nice ride, we'd look at coming back through Maude, stop at the lookout and the back roads, depending on timing

    If GL wants to meet up it would be at the pine trees (Rowsley Ave of Honour) cnr Glenmore and BacchusM - Baillering Rd) at say 10.30 am.

    To meet up would be nice as we are having trouble getting people out on rides post lockdown as they all seem to be 'catching up'.

    Will miss this ride as I am finally catching up with some friends I haven't seen or met in the flesh for almost a year.  I'm so excited.

    Have a great ride everyone, this is a little ripper.
