This should be a spectacular ride.

The ride departs The Edge Cafe Geelong at 9am on the 24th Feb '24. The first day is a ride on the Great Ocean Road to Port Fairy with stops along the way. We will spend the night in Port Fairy, please book your own accomodation, but Seacombe House looks good. Dinner will be at 'Coffin Sally'.

Breakfast, should you be peckish is at 'Bank Street + Co' where we'll depart from at 10am.

Sunday morning we head to Camperdown  via Portland, Macarthur, Dunkeld and Mortlake. Dinner at the 'Leura Hotel'.

Accomadation options; Manifold Motel, Leura Hotel but I'm sure there's a few others that may suit better.

Breakfast at the 'Farmhouse Cafe' where we depart at 10am and make our way back to Geelong via Birregurra, Deans Marsh and Lorne.

    Thank you organisers so looking forward to this ride.    FYI: Kim & I will meet at BP 7am Sat morning. Ride with the group to Port Fairy on Saturday & Sunday most/or all of the way to Camperdown. Pending weather we may join the camperdown dinner. We'll then return to Port Fairy for a 2nd night accommodation, with a leisurely coastal ride home on Monday via Queenscliff ferry. If anyone wants to join us on the ferry trip back, you are most welcome. Thanks in advance.
