You will be guided along the internationally-renowned Great Ocean Road, winding past the stunning natural attractions such as The Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge and London Bridge, and around popular beach resort towns that are the home of the surfing revolution like Lorne, Bells Beach and Torquay. The pounding surf against limestone cliffs is the perfect backdrop for some power pedalling, climbing hills and descending through thick forest, mixed with dramatic ocean-side cycling.

The end of the Great Ocean Road is not the end of the fun though - after your last overnight stop at Queenscliff, you will take the ferry across the bay to Sorrento to ride the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay to Melbourne. Your home run, as part of the ‘Around the Bay’ event, will be along the cycling mecca of Beach Road where every weekend thousands of cyclists take to this beautiful stretch of bayside road. Enjoy the views, join and drop off pelotons, and stop for one of Melbourne’s great coffees and chat with other cyclists –you’ll have a great story to tell having ridden all the way from the other end of the Great Ocean Road!

Ride the Great Ocean Road without the logistical headaches – everything you need is organized including accommodation, food, vehicle support, safety briefings, first-aid qualified guides, bike mechanical support, luggage transfer, great camaraderie and much more. Pedal away each morning knowing that your morning tea and lunch stops will be set up for you along the route, your luggage will be taken care of, and you are being looked after by the best in the business. All you need to do is decide which way to look to enjoy the scenery of this magnificent part of the world.
