Egypt is rich with temples, soaring lotus-bud columns; enormous stone portals laced with delicate carvings, elaborate underground tombs, windswept desert monasteries, and richly decorated mosques. But as extraordinary as these sights are, they will probably not be the things that linger in your memory after you return home. It is exploring them from the back of a motorcycle or a scooter – from the Mediterranean feel of Alexandria to the electric pace of Cairo to the timelessness of desert villages- that is unforgettable.</p><p>Cross Egypt Challenge adventure rally and motorcycle and scooter tour not only gives you the opportunity to explore this magnificent country on two wheels, but it also allows you to experience the Egyptian culture first hand and explore destinations and routes that normal tourists don’t get to explore.

This is not a VCM organised ride, you need to book your own registration, flights etc. but a few of us are thinking of doing this and there is an Early Bird cut off on the fee, so start planning if you are interested and leave a comment below.</p><p>2024 Early Bird Fee is USD 2,650 + the extras below at 2023 prices</p><p>Scooter Hire USD 500</p><p>Accommodation upgrade to Double from triple USD 350</p><p>Upgrade to Single USD 650</p><p>Helmet USD 75</p><p>Read more here <a href="https://www.crossegyptchallenge.com/" target="_blank">Cross Egypt Challenge details</a></p></div>Australian Vespa Days 2025 - Sunshine Coasthttps://vespaclubmelbourne.com.au/event/save-the-date-avd-2025-sunshine-coast-nambour2025-03-27T23:00:00.000Z2025-03-27T23:00:00.000ZJulie Pondhttps://vespaclubmelbourne.com.au/members/JuliePond<p><a href="https://vespaclubmelbourne.com.au/event/list/on/2025-03-28">Mar 28, 2025</a> at 10:00am to <a href="https://vespaclubmelbourne.com.au/event/list/on/2025-03-30">Mar 30, 2025</a> at 10:00am</p><p>Location: Nambour QLD</p><p>Created by: <a href='/members/JuliePond'>Julie Pond</a></p><div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/12313179883?profile=RESIZE_400x&width=400"></div><div><p>Express an interest now</p>

<p>Today we announced the dates for the next Australian Vespa Days 2025 event. It will be held on the Sunshine Coast in the town of Nambour. Please put this exciting event in your diary and start planning. </p>
<p>More details will be provided soon but for now see details below about accommodation. It will be up to you to call and book your room of choice.</p>
<p>VCM has blocked out 6 Queen rooms ($150) and 7 Twin rooms ($160 Single and Double bed) at Motel in Nambour for the period 27 – 30<sup>th</sup> March 2025. <a href="https://motelnambour.com.au">https://motelnambour.com.au</a> This Motel is the closest to the Venue where the AVD – Sunshine Coast will be held.</p>
<p>If you would like one of these rooms, then please call Sonja on 07 5441 5500 and tell her you are a Vespa Club of Melbourne member.</p>
<p>The prices will most likely go up a bit by 2025, but Sonja will try to keep the increase to the minimum.</p>
<p>Of course, if you wish to book a bigger room for Family or somewhere else, then I suggest you do it now.</p>
