Imagine this feeling… 🙌🚲

You’ve ridden the East Gippsland Rail Trail from Bairnsdale to Orbost.

97km. One day. And you’re rolling into Orbost knowing you actually did it!

That’s what Rail Trail in a Day is all about. Giving yourself a goal, having a go and seeing just how far you can get.

And remember — this isn’t a ride where you’re completely on your own.

We’ll have hydration and snack stops along the trail, support out there with you, and pick-up points along the way if your legs, your battery or your day just doesn’t quite go to plan.

If you make the full 97km — amazing.
If you don’t — no stress. We’ve got you.

But imagine rolling into Orbost at the end of the day with that feeling… 💛

Time to register and turn that picture into reality. 🚲

We’ve sold out 4 Errinundra Wilderness tours at the introductory price…We've got ONE more left!

📅 15th–18th December - Departing from Orbost!

This is such a great time of year to head into the wilderness — warm days, blue skies and plenty of time riding through the cool temperate rainforest and remote forest country.

It’s a supported 4-day journey, so you get the adventure and the wilderness experience without having to organise all the logistics yourself.

For this tour we now have a few accommodation options available:

• Twin or double share rooms with shared bathroom
• BYO caravan or tent
• Easy Camp — we set the tent up for you

There are just 6 spots available on this December departure.

BOOK HERE: https://snowyrivercycling86.rezdy.com/767450/errinundra-wilderness-journey

If a few days of riding, fresh air, quiet roads and proper wilderness sounds like your kind of break, this one might be for you.

With just over a month until the Great East kicks off, we’ve got a rare roofed accommodation option available!

Mill Cottage is a great setup for friends, couples or a small group wanting a little extra comfort for the four nights.

It has two double beds at opposite ends of the cottage, with a kitchen in between, plus single bunk beds — so it works really well for two couples sharing, a group of friends, or anyone happy to split the cost.

The cottage is an additional $1,200 for all 4 nights, so if you’re sharing it between a few people, it’s actually fantastic value.

A little changing of the guard today… and definitely a bittersweet moment. 💛

The old butcher shop is about to begin its next chapter as the new Snowy River Cycling HQ!

Today Brett & Kelly from dropped in with a beautiful hamper to congratulate Michelle on taking ownership of the building and on this next step for Snowy River Cycling.

It really is something special to have this kind of support within our community as local businesses grow, change and make way for new ideas.

A huge thank you to Brett & Kel. While they no longer needed this shopfront, we’re so excited to give it a new lease of life and transform it into a home for Snowy River Cycling — and hopefully a little tourism hub right here in Orbost.

There’s still plenty of work happening behind the scenes, but today felt like a pretty special milestone. 🚲🌿

One chapter closes, another begins. Watch this space!

Can you bring the family to the Rail Trail In A Day event? Absolutely. 🚲

The full challenge is 97km from Bairnsdale to Orbost, but that doesn’t mean everyone in the family has to ride the full distance.

One of the things we love about this event is that you can make the day work for your family.

You might have one rider taking on the full 97km, while another parent and the kids join in for a shorter section. Or perhaps you all start together and decide along the way how far everyone wants to go.

With designated pick-up points at Nicholson, Bruthen and Nowa Nowa, there are options to finish earlier if little legs — or big legs! — have had enough.

Then everyone can come together at the finish in Orbost for the BBQ, live music, stalls and celebrations.

It’s still a challenge, but your family’s version of the challenge doesn’t have to look the same as everyone else’s.

Ride the whole trail. Ride part of it. Cheer someone on. Come and be part of the day.

Who would you take on 97km with?

Grab a riding mate and challenge yourselves to travel the full East Gippsland Rail Trail from Bairnsdale to Orbost in one day.

You’ll have up to 10 hours, support along the trail, staffed pit stops and the reassurance that you can check out and catch the support bus if you’ve reached your limit.
It’s a challenge — but you don’t have to tackle it unsupported.
Tag the person you would ride it with!

If you’ve ridden an e-bike before, you’ll know two things:

1. You still have to pedal — it’s not cheating!
2. How far your battery lasts really depends on how you ride it.

Realistically, you’re probably not going to ride the entire 97km Rail Trail in a Day on Turbo mode and expect the battery to last!

But we do have several newer e-bikes with a very decent range, and if you get in early, you can hire one with the capacity to take on the full Bairnsdale to Orbost journey.

We can also help you understand how to manage your assistance levels throughout the day to get the most out of your battery.

And remember — there are staffed pit stops and pick-up points along the way, so if your battery or your legs decide they’ve had enough, we’ve got you covered.

E-bike hire is available separately — but numbers are limited.
