    In honour of members past I am going to call this the ‘Love Actually’ tour.

    This year’s Love Actually tour is the Christmas ride to Walhalla ‘where the souls of warriors who died in battle are received by the god Odin’ in Norse mythology. 

    Beginning, at the edge of time, at the Butler’s Pantry in Rowville. This ride will take us to through the Erica State forest to the Walhalla Pub where we will dine like god’s for a luncheon fit for kings. Eat , drink and be Merry for the festive season.

    Rider briefing and stands up at 0930. Have your tank full and breakfast coffee consumed by 0930

    Taking in the magnificent scenery of Gippsland’s finest countryside we will literally traverse the same roads on our return because they are that good.

    In  a day that promises to be as memorable as it is God like come and join us for the final ride of 2024 and enjoy a day of twisty after twisty that will leave your wrist and ankle sore of changing gears so often that you will need to wait until 2025 to recover and get your movement back.

    A New Year ride is planned for Thursday, Jan 2. It will leave from Diamond Creek and head for lunch at either Strathbogie's revamped General Store or Euroa depending on numbers. A morning break is planned at Strath Creek's new General Store as well in a case of use 'em or lose 'em.

    The outward leg is via Highlands/Creightons Crk and the return via Yarck/Limestone in an overall day of 340 km. About 4 km is unsealed Shire road. The ride will finish at Kinglake pub in anticipation of somewhat thirstier weather than last year's Kevington ride. Invited guests are welcome.

    Our annual New Year BBQ Meeting is returning to the banks of the Yarra. The location is on Alexandra Avenue, just downstream of the Anderson Street/Morell pedestrian bridge. Arrive anytime from 6pm. The first there grabs the BBQ facilities nearest the toilet block.

    BYO food and drink. Guests welcome. The night will be hot and dry or cold and wet, it always was.

    Note: While the BBQ meet-up is in lieu of a January General Meeting it is scheduled on the second WEDNESDAY of the month so we avoid the Australian Tennis Open and the parking mayhem!

    Summer is here and the beach is a calling. Its time for some Vitamin D on the bones. Departing from Butler's 0900 sharp.

    The plan is to meander down through Mirboo Nth, Meeniyan, Fish Ck. Have lunch in Venus Bay then return via Inverloch, Wonthaggi.

    This is a big ride and better suited to the experienced rider.

    The whole trip will be aprox 400km
