The National Scooter Rally is an event for all scooters and this year will be held in Victoria at The Grampians, over three days from Friday 29th to Sunday 31st of March. There will be great rides organized and meet scooterists from around the country. We are expecting a big club turnout.
We have booked club accommodation for 38 at the lovely Grampians View Cottages. THIS IS NOW FULL, and many more of our members have booked their own accommodation around the town. Try bookings.com or other agencies for excellent deals around the town.
The Club will organize a ride up early Friday morning. It will be off-freeway and we'll convoy up by the scenic route to arrive by lunchtime. Details will be announced shortly.
We need to know:
1. If you are coming - RSVP here
2. Whether you will riding up with the club on Friday morning. We'll group ride home too.

Urgent to members. We have a last minute cancellation at the club's accom at the Grampians View Cottages at Halls Gap for the National Rally. The cost is $200 for two people for two nights - Friday (tomorrow) and Saturday. Double room with kitchenette. If you are interested in the weekend, even if not riding up, please contact us at admin@vespaclubmelbourne.com.au tonight.
Not long now, looks like the weather is going to be a bit wintery so don't forget to pack some wet weather gear just in case and also thermals as it will be very cold at night I am expecting.
All linen is provided, and each cottage and unit has a kitchenette. There seriously is an indoor pool and spa also...:)
If you have time, please have a hearty breakfast before leaving on Friday morning.
When you arrive at the Caltex, please fill your petrol tank immediately.
First group will leave at 8am Sharp.

If you have a club banner please bring it to put on your bike and anyone who has a Club corner marker Hi-Viz Jacket, please bring it with you.
Bring it on. :)
Anyone else leaving from the Geelong area?
I'm thinking of leaving as 12 on Friday
On Saturday morning there'll be a big ride from Halls Gap to the 'Giant Koala'.
After that the Club has organized the option of a plains ride Into The Wimmera where a highlight will be a visit to the Murtoa Stick Shed.
If you choose this ride:
You must have left Halls Gap with a full tank of fuel.
The ride is capped at 30, that's the first 30 out of the Giant Koala Car Park at 10 AM
We'll be leaving from the north 'bus stop' side of the car park.
All details will be in your rally pack or

Hi Stefan, will meet you Friday Brighton Baths at 6.30am. Thanks Raewyn
Everyone who is attending this Rally will receive an email from the Club over the weekend. It will have as much information as we can possibly give you, given that there is yet to be an itinerary for the weekend posted by the Organiser on the Event Facebook page. It is pleasing to see members travelling in the same direction, reaching out to other members to ride up together to the big meeting point in Brooklyn.
Let's hope the weather is kind to us, this ride is going to be a bit of a challenge for some members who haven't been on any of the longer country rides but there will be refresher stops along the way, pack water and a snack, a casual outfit to get out of your riding gear, a jacket for the evenings as it will get cold, and make sure your vespa is in tip top shape for the great ride ahead.
See you in a week.
Cheers Julie
Hi Raewyn, I've sent you a message regarding leaving from the mornington peninsula :-)
