December 12, 2024

If you only ever take part in one ride for the entire year, this is the ride it must be. The Annual Christmas ride has been a part of our cycling calendar since we started back in 2002. The ride will start at Woori Yallock station car park at 8 am  (NOTE THE TIME). We will all be riding towards Lilydale, but each rider can decide how far they want to ride. At 10 am we will all meet at the Carriage Cafe in Seville for morning tea/breakfast/lunch. This is also our chance to thank the retiring King and announce the new King or Queen for 2025.

An important feature of the event is the all important group photo of the "2024 peloton". This will also be the final ride for 2024, so mark it in your calendar in indelible ink.

Feel free to decorate your bikes and yourselves in suitable Christmas bling.
