Feel like an Autumn bike ride with like-minded locals or visitors to the Yarra Valley. Join Ride-Time in Warburton.

Join us for our first monthly Gravel Ride squarely aimed at beginner riders who are looking to get social, and get into Gravel in this beautiful part of the world.
A very casual, but sporty ride along some of the best bits of low lying Warburton.
This is a NO DROP ride, and we encourage a wide range of abilities to show up.
Although this is a beginner ride, still expect to have a nice little workout, and we encourage you to just have fun and do your best.
We will provide at least TWO Ride Leaders that can assist with directions, advice, bike setup and encouragement.

We depart at 7.30am sharp - and return around 9.00am for coffee at Silva Coffee.
Yes !! We ride RAIN, HAIL, SHINE - just dress appropriately.

Rail Trail etiquette and safe ride riding is critical. Please listen to the Ride Leaders, stay left, call for walkers, cross roads safely, look out for each other, ride at safe distance and all the other things to get home safely. Our Ride Leaders will help to teach some of the unspoken riding laws.

Most suitable bike is - Gravel Bike or Lightweight style MTB.
A Flat Bar Road Bike or Road Bike with suitable tyres for light gravel will be ok too.
Please bring - Suitable clothing (yes, it will be cold), a rear flashing light, a snack or gel for the ride, at least one water bottle, helmet (mandatory),

Anything you need from the our shop ?? We have plenty of clothing, parts or accessories in stock - just get there a little earlier if you need anything. Open from 7.00am

Would you like to try a Gravel Bike?? We have a good range of Hire Gravel Bikes in the fleet that we will be offering for just $30 for this ride. Very limited stock, so please call us to book one ahead of time - 59669646
