This isn’t a race. It’s not a big commercial tour — it’s small, personal, and run by people who genuinely care about your experience. It’s a thoughtfully created three-day journey along one of Victoria’s most scenic rail trails. You ride at your own pace. The support is there if you need it. You stop when the view calls for it. You meet people who value the quiet of the bush as much as a good chat over dinner.
You’ll be well looked after — all meals are included, with maps, daily briefings, support riders and vehicles, local insight you wouldn’t get otherwise, and a bit of entertainment along the way. This ride is built to be hassle-free, welcoming, and full of small surprises — and it leaves you with that quiet sense of achievement you only get after doing something special.
There’s something magic about sharing the trail with others who are there for the experience, not the speed. While the ride is open to all, most of our riders are over 40 — people who know the value of taking a few days out, slowing down, and doing something for themselves. We’ve even had riders in their 80s, still living life to the fullest. The camaraderie that builds over three days is something pretty special.
The scenery is stunning, the support crew are the real deal, and with thoughtful details all the way through — it’s more than just a bike ride.

Feedback from 2024 participants
I have felt safe and cared for 100% of the time. Wined and dined deliciously, entertained to the max. Attention to detail was flawless. I am in awe of the organisation. I salute thee.
I was so impressed with the team. Very professional, knowledgable, friendly, happy. The ride was very well run. I appreciated team members being stationed at road crossings and the coffee stops with Flat Bickie. Everyone was so welcoming.
How did you find being based for event duration?
It was fabulous! It worked with precision. I loved it! Everyone seemed comfortable and it worked well with having our caravan with us. I liked having the time to relax at the end of each day and participating in all the activities.
How did you find the support team?
Wow!! We did not expect to have so much friendly support. Everyone was so willing to help, knowledgeable and took so much care of both us and our bikes. The ambulance was a comfort whenever we glimpsed it on the trail.
How did you find the meals?
Absolutely perfect! Greatly exceeded any expectations or hopes we might have had. We loved the variety, quantity, quality and the use of small local vendors which gave us a great insight into the area. We brought our own snacks but didn't even open them as there was plenty of food at just the right times.
