Ultimate Victorian Adventure ride - 
May 4 - 9
Suited to Adventure Bikes

   This is the Ultimate Victorian Adventure Ride aimed at larger Adventure bikes. We’ve had this ride in the pipeline for a couple of years now and its epic.The ride will run from the most easterly point of Victoria in Mallacoota, on the beach, to the most north westerly point of Victoria over near Mildura on the Murray River. Covering the best sections of temperate rainforests, high country, snow fields, iconic valleys, goldfields, open plains, and deserts the state has to offer! This ride has it all in terms of riding terrain and conditions. 

   This ride is suited for adventure bikes with 250 km fuel range or more. The riding will be typical adventure riding with plenty of scenic gravel roads and flowing 4wd tracks to keep riders enthralled. There'll be the odd harder track to put the 'adventure' into the day's ride and get the group to an iconic lookout or 2. This is a point to point ride so riders would have to get themselves to Mallacoota for the start of the ride and home from Mildura. This is a ride for adventurous riders with a keen sense of adventure. Our extremely experienced support riders will safely and confidently get you through all sections.

   So if you are up for a personal, physical and mental challenge that will push your skills over a week long period, this is the ride for you. The riding is all forestry roads, 4wd tracks and in the desert, sandy tracks with a bitumen transit section connecting the mountains to the desert.

​

Trip overview

   The event will kick off Sunday afternoon May 4 at the Mallacoota pub, with registration and dinner. The ride itself will commence in Mallacoota on Monday, May 5. 

   - Day 1 will take us through coastal forests in the morning and and up into the high county for the remainder of the day. We’ll be covering some awesome country including crossing the Snowy River at the stunning Mckillop Bridge with accommodation and dinner at the Karoonda Park lodge in Gelandtpiy that night. 

   - Day 2 will see us cover another big chuck of the high country, starting off with some remote tracks and roads, then on though Benambra, Omeo and and over Mt Hotham and down to our stop for the night at the iconic Dargo Hotel. 

   - Day 3 will see us head through a full day of epic tracks and roads between Dargo and Merrijig including the famous Craig’s hut. We'll pull up for the night at an awesome country pub in Merrijig. These 3 days are a mix of gravel roads and flows 4wd tracks. The riding will be suited to larger adventure bikes.

   - Day 4 is a transit day of riding the road section on mostly highway (400kms) between the high country and the desert edge town of Rainbow where we’ll stay for the night. It’s all part of the adventure. We’ll make a day of it by stopping at a good lunch spot and checking out a few other sights on the way. 

   - Day 5 is a full day in the desert with gravel / clay based roads and some sandy tracks being the flavour of the day. We'll have lunch in Pinnaroo just over the SA border. Then it'll be onto Mildura where the the ride will come to an end on Friday afternoon.
