The Great Vic Bike Ride is completed on sealed roads and is best suited to a hybrid or road bike. However, we love all bikes, and you are encouraged to use the type of bike that you are most comfortable and familiar with.
Ebikes are welcome on the Great Vic Bike Ride, subject to our policy.
There’s really no campsite like a Great Vic campsite – it’s a pop-up town with everything you need, including:
- Breakfast and dinner
- A medical clinic
- Daily live entertainment
- ‘Main Street’ full of vendors, community groups and tourist information
- Two licensed bars
- Security
- Mobile phone charging (recommended to pre-book)
- Ebike secure charging station (must pre-book)
- The Hub (Information Centre)
- Dishwashing station
- Clothes washing station (rest day)
- Free water refill stations
- Luggage trucks to move your gear each day
We provide a luggage transfer service, which is included in your ticket. Each day, you’ll be required to take your luggage to our luggage trucks so it can be transported to the next site. Take note of your luggage truck number, so you can find your luggage at the next site.
Each Great Vic rider is allocated 20kg of luggage. We prefer if you can bring 2 x 10kg max bags. For the safety of all Great Vic team and attendees, baggage weight checks will be conducted on arrival to the event and penalties will apply for overweight bags.
Yes, ChargeSpot will be available at each campsite. We ask that you pre-book your unlimited charging to ensure you stay connected.
You’ll receive your registration kit when you arrive at the campsite on the first day of the ride. The riding route will be open from 8:30am-10:30am so please arrive in time to collect your pack and begin your ride on the Monday! Those staying with us on Sunday night will be able to pick up their pack that evening. Timings and more information will be shared in the Ride Guide closer to the event
