At the start of the Midsem break, we will be enjoying the spine of the Strzlecki Ranges through South Gippsland. The details for this ride are given here: https://www.adventurecyclingvictoria.com/rides/grand-ridge-road. We will either camp (free) or if the group wants we can get a cabin (around $35). This ride does go over some rough gravel so you will need a bike that has at least 35mm tyres and can carry all the required gear. We will catch the VLine there and back.
In order to come on this trip you must be confident that you can ride a loaded bike for 80km per day with over 1000m of elevation gain per day.
What to bring:
- A road worthy bike: Gravel bike or MTB with tires of at least 35mm
- A helmet
- Overnight gear (can be hired from MUMC)
- Sunscreen
- Wet weather gear
- Charged bike lights
- At the very least 1 dinner, 1 breakfast and 2 lunches.
- Snacks: cereal bars, nuts, lollies... Anything sweet to fuel your ride.
- 2L of water + purification method (filter or tablets)
- Toolset and spares that fit your bike (a tubeless fixing kit and CO2 if you are riding tubeless)
