Frequently Asked Questions

With relatively short cycling distances and even terrain, this is one of the easiest cycling trips and one that can be completed by almost anyone with a 'normal' degree of cycling fitness or experience. It should be noted however that the extremes of weather (both heat and cold) in the Victorian High Country can make cycling more physically demanding than it may otherwise appear.

It is important that you are both confident and competent in riding a bicycle, both solo and in a group environment.

Riding is done mostly on a fully sealed cycle path, so there are no technical cycling skills required.

There are regular rest breaks each day, however, it is important to note that you will be riding over multiple and consecutive days in a climate and terrain that may be unfamiliar. 

This itinerary does not have a full-time support vehicle constantly following the group. Your luggage is always transported for you (by vehicle) between accommodations.

An e-bike option (at additional cost) may also be available on this trip. We have limited numbers of these bikes available and they are on an 'on request' basis only. 

Travellers with special dietary requirements or food allergies are required to advise us at the time of booking.
You may be asked to pay for any additional food if you have not advised us of any special dietary requirements. Due to the often remote nature of our trips, food is basic but plentiful and delicious.

The below dietary needs can be easily catered for.

Vegetarian
Gluten-Free
Dairy Free (soy available)
Pork Free

Please bring your own staples (nuts, bars, snacks) if you require a diet differing from the above.

* Religious and more specific dietary requirements are generally unable to be catered for on these trips.

  • As space in the transport is limited we request that you bring only one small soft-sided bag plus a day pack (no more than 15 kg in total per person) 

  • Rain gear – pack a light poncho in case the weather turns when you’re out on the road

  • Light breathable waterproof/windproof jacket – especially useful for those early mornings or downhill sections when the wind chill becomes a factor

  • Water bottle – we don't provide bottles but all our bikes have one bottle holder fitted (and a second one can be fitted if required). Please bring a cycling-specific water bottle as other types will fall out of the holders. A Camelbak will make drinking on the go easier

  • Sunglasses 

  • Day pack – our support vehicle will carry your main bag, but a day pack for snacks and clothes is a good idea

  • Suncream – please bring a high protection factor (e.g. SPF 50) sunscreen

  • Shoes – normal sports shoes can be worn on all of our trips however you may want to consider a flat shoe with a relatively stiff sole as it makes pedalling a lot more efficient. Regular cyclists are welcome to bring their own cycling-specific shoes however we recommend 'mountain bike' style shoes that have a grip on the sole rather than road bike shoes as you will still be walking around while on the rides (cafe/photo/toilet stops, etc.). For safety reasons, we require that you wear shoes that completely cover the toes while riding.

  • Camera

  • We recommend you bring your own helmet, as this will likely be the most comfortable for you, however if you don’t have your own, helmet hire is included as part of the bike hire

  • Other items that may make cycling more comfortable include padded bike shorts, quick-dry socks, cycling gloves & your own saddle.

The beauty of our style of travel is that it caters to travellers who are travelling solo and who want to meet and share experiences with like-minded people.

Rooming is organised on a twin-share basis. We pair up solo travellers with another traveller of the same gender.

We also have an optional single supplement available on most trips for travellers who prefer to have their own room. This will apply to all nights on the tour.
