Slower or smaller capacity scooters or for those who want to enjoy scenery cruising at 75-90 kms/hr will leave 15 mins later.

Both groups will ride via Exford, Glenmore Road, Mount Egerton, Buninyong, Glenelg Hwy, Skipton, Mount William Rd and Moyston.

For members who are staying at the Grampians View Cottages but are riding up independently, rooms have been allocated and keys will be ready for collection. Just give your name to our hosts Fiona and Rob.

Coming home on Sunday will be same route in reverse.  Departure time will be determined once we find out what the program is for the morning!

See you there. :)

    I will be leading the Freeway ride up to the Grampians. 

    It will be a nice cruise on a multi laned freeway almost all the way to Ararat.
