2010 will see Australias inaugural Graperide. The Graperide has been successfully running in New Zealand since 2005 and last year won the ‘Best Organised Event’ of the year award.

The graperide is a 104km or 46km ride through a winery region. It’s a mass participation event for cyclists of all abilities to enjoy. There is a category for the more serious cyclists but it’s not a graded event.

The graperide is a mix of all good things in life keeping healthy, community and gourmet food and wine. The Graperide is a great day out for the family enjoying the breathtaking scenery of the winery region, a challenge in the ride and enjoyment from the fine food and wine that will be served after the event onsite with entertainment for all.

Come join us for the day or make a weekend of it with your friends by staying a couple of nights to enjoy one of Austrailas many beautiful wine regions.
