Update 18/8/26: Ride rescheduled from 17th to 18th October to avoid clash with F450GS launch & BBQ (also on 17th October).

Riding days are getting warmer and longer! So, why not join the Club for a longer day ride over the Monaro Plains, down Brown Mtn to Bemboka, with a loop of corners through Kameruka, Candelo and Mogilla, before heading back to Bemboka to meet up with BMWTCNSW riders for 12:00 lunch at the Bemboka Hotel and Café? Short on time? Then join us for coffee on the first leg through to Nimmitabel (99 km one-way).

Outbound ex. Michelago General Store: via Monaro Hwy, Cooma, Nimmitabel (coffee), Snowy Mtns Hwy, Brown Mtn to Bemboka, West Kameruka Rd, Candelo-Bega Rd and then Mogilla Rd back to Bemboka (186 km): https://maps.app.goo.gl/cC6aPySqwfLMYAW58
