Club Events

The Club run many sorts of events from our fortnightly weekend rides, through to overnighters or weekends away (not to be missed) to our fantastic Fun Day events at the Phillip Island circuit.  This is the place to keep your eye on to see what is happening. 

Events may appear here before registration is open. If  the event is a limited-numbers event, there may be a wait list option for you to put your name down in case anyone cancels. 

Many events are free, some are not, some events require a deposit or full payment up front, some events have limited numbers.  So, be sure to check the event details by clicking on the event below.  In the event that you are no longer able to attend a paid for event we do have a Refund Policy which you can review here.

Only financial club members may book an event, although unless the event is specified as 'members only', a club member may book for their non-members guests.  Again, check the event details.  

Note: all events are run under permit by Motorcycling Australia Permit # MA2517

    This is an information post only. DOCNSW’s 43rd Thunder Rally is scheduled for October 11-13. There is no official DOCV contingent travelling up for the Rally this year however help is available for those who self-organise. Whether you are into old style rallies or not it is a great excuse to venture north and explore some of NSW’s best roads.

    Food and firewood will be available at the Sheba Dams site and the usual raffles and awards will occur on Saturday evening. All profits are donated to Royal Ryde Rehabilitation Hospital.

    Non-camping options are available in Nundle township if booked early. Alternatively, the Rally can be attended from Tamworth. A minimum itinerary of 8 days is recommended.

    If you are interested and on Facebook then THIS (Thunder Rally #43) is a useful group to join.

    Further information available from Geoff 0408 533152, gsalmon@bigpond.net.au or Chris Gillett of DOCNSW gillec@optusnet.com.au

    You may remember we held a past committee member lunch as part of our 40th anniversary celebrations in 2016, and again in 2018. Both events were such a success we’ve decided to run one again.

    So we are inviting all past and present committee members to join us for a lunch to reconnect with old friends, meet new friends and talk all things DOCV and Ducati. 

    This year we will be heading to the Studley Grounds in Kew (recommended by Pres Oliver).

    It is reasonably central for everyone, wthe food is great, and there is easy parking for bikes and cars. 

    To keep things simple we have a delicious set menu at $40 per person.

    A payment of $20 is required for your booking which will be deducted from your bill. See Desmoto for details of the set menu.

    Note: when registering you will be taken to the PayPal screen. There is an option "Pay with a Card" under the PayPal button. You can use this if you don't use PayPal.

    Looking forward to seeing as many of you as can make it!

    After a hugely enjoyable event last December it's back - make sure you register for the best Phillip Island Fun Day run in 2024.
    The Club has secured another great date, so make sure you don't miss out! 

    Early Bird pricing will be available for Club Members only up to Sunday September 21st, so jump in early to save yourself some $$$.

    The day will be run under an MV permit as we have done before, so if you do not have a current annual MA or MV licence, you will need to purchase a One Event Licence before the day. Riders will not be allowed onto the track without one. Allow around $38 for your OEL.  

    Race Center will be providing track services  - tyres, servicing and proven coaching. The resurfaced PI track is grippy but wears tyres fast - book your favourite tyres with Race Center asap: Harley 0457 195 630.
    Harley and Darren will look after you, so book any other services you may need too.

    We will also arrange the usual dinner in Cowes on Wednesday night as a separate event, so keep your eye out for that one.

    A modest but sharp day that starts from Yarra Glen and finishes at Healesville, or earlier at Launching Place if it suits. There will be stops at Steavenson Falls, Lake Mountain and Reefton Hotel for lunch.

    The day amounts to 3:45 saddle time and 180 km. A short, 4 km section of dirt is proposed between Launching Place and Healesville. It is Shire road but avoidable if preferred.
