Ends: 12:00pm Sunday 12 February 2023 (duration is 2 days)

Come and join us in Tawonga for two nights from the 10th to the 12th of February.

If you are looking for a pre-peaks tune up or have never ridden in the High Country before, this is the perfect opportunity.

There are 7 twin/double bedrooms, so numbers will currently be capped at 14. We will look at nearby accommodation if there is further interest.

The accommodation is self-catering (there is a huge commercial kitchen) and provides all bedding. It is a very eclectic property, with amazing views of Mt Bogong, fantastic dining and lounge areas, interesting bathrooms and is literally on the corner of the Kiewa Valley Highway and Ryders Lane in Tawonga. Those of you who have ridden the Rosewhite loop will have been past his place.

The details:

The cost for 2 nights is $160 per person.

Catering: We will organise dinner for Saturday night as a shared meal and we can all sit around one of the amazing river gum tables. I suggest that everyone brings their own breakfast and organises their own food for Friday night (as this will depend on what time you leave Melbourne). We can have lunch out (e.g. Beechworth Brewery on the Rosewhite loop) on each day.

We’ll start up a chat in the TeamApp event closer to the date and to work out who is bringing what for Saturday dinner and to see what people’s ride preferences are.

There are many ride options, including the:
- Rosewhite loop (approx 120kms along the Kiewa Valley to Running Creek Road, through the Happy Valley to Ovens then up the Great Alpine Road to Porepunkah and then across the – Tawonga Gap to Buffalo/Hotham/Buckland Valley depending on your appetite for alpine climbing/peaks training!
- Ride into Mt Beauty for coffee!
