See elsewhere for description of ride. Note: some dirt, interesting and little used roads, and likely to be very leisurely. Suitable for a pillion. Expect around 320 km for the day.

The route will be fairly straight forward picking up Yarragon and then Moe for morning tea and fuel. Then into the twisties and a visit to the Dam followed by lunch at the scenic and historic Walhalla. Route home depends on time but expect much the same way. Estimate about 400 km for the day.

Dave will be either on his RGV or 748. Either way expect plenty of great motorcycle roads with lots of twists and plenty of spectacular views. We will probably travel through Flowerdale, maybe via Strath Creek and Parrot Creek to Yea for morning tea. On to Molesworth and across to Alexandra, through Fraser National Park to Eildon for lunch. Maybe we’ll score a trip around the Dam Wall. Mt Pinninger is a few kilometres outside of Eildon, up a tight bitumen road with 500 m of good dirt to the summit. You can park right at the top if you are game. Sensational views of the lake system abound. Bring your camera. Home via Marysville and the Black Spur. Expect around 350 km for the day. Short and sharp as Dave has to start work late afternoon.

Tim Walker won this event last year and will be there to defend his title. Bikes will be timed from the bottom of the hill to the top. You usually get a couple of shots. Good fun. This ride requires a fair bit of organising so please make the effort. Expect around 300 km for the day. Did I mention Val’s cooking?
