2^nd - 5^th 9am West Gate Bridge Shell Service Station

On Day 4 we will return home via back roads including the Grampians. Expect to be home by 5 pm. A total round trip in the vicinity of 2,200 easy kilometres.

Then south into Gippsland and some of the best roads in Australia — designed for milk tankers — wide and well surfaced. Route may include Loch and further south.

Sat. 24^th Café Cruise Nick Prapas leading

11 am Café Racer, 16 Marine Parade St Kilda

A first for the Club (in my time anyway) should appeal to most people looking for a leisurely way to spend a few hours on Saturday. Maybe a walk down St Kilda pier? Could end up in Lygon St for lunch. Be there and find out! I might have to wash my bike.

Sunday 25^th Alexandra Dave Ward leading

9.30 am KBCP, 10.30 am Yarra Glen

Dave may be on the Ducati 748, or Bron’s RGV. Either way expect plenty of corners. You’ll need a decent set of tyres. We could end up down the Torbreck River Road (near Eildon) which includes 37 km of excellent tight twisty road before hitting the dirt. We’ll immediately do a U turn and come back the 37 km of twisty road. Expect about 350 km for the day.

Fri 2^nd to Hotel Accommodation

Mon 5^th 9 am West Gate Bridge Shell Sevo

Same format as last year with pub accommodation on the outskirts of Adelaide (Murray Bridge last year) with day trips around the hills and down to Victor Harbour. Fantastic roads, great accommodation, good company. It was one of the best trips we did last year. See Ben with a $30 deposit to secure a room.
