Be prepared. This is for experienced riders.
Day 2. Corryong to Bairnsdale via Guy's Forest and Mitta Mitta. Departing Corryong at 0930 we will travel back to Walwa then turn left to the "Guy's Forrest rd" (personal favourite) Running the B400 back toward Tallangatta we will turn left onto the Yabba Rd and run this all the way to Eskdale. From here its the C543 the Mitta Mitta Rd all the way to Omeo. From Omeo its the B500 all the to Bairnsdale. Magnificent road traversing the river to Bruthen. If you've not done this before its a 'Bucket list' item and must do. Total kilometres for this day will be 400km.
