4000 bike riders later!

On our way to Portland today we encountered 4000 bike riders heading in the opposite direction! This was the Great Victorian Bike Ride from Robe (the Limestone coast) to Torquay on the Great Ocean Road - 652kms (405 miles) What a ride!! Taken through the front window.

Omw, that sure is a lot and a long ride.

[Babs]

Wow 4000 riders and such a long ride.

[Wylie]

I hope they had a few days, at least it would be great scenery!

[Lou Ann]

Wow! What a ride! How many days does this ride take, do you know?

[Denise Wood]

@pusspup @louannwarren It's a 10 day bike ride. Or you can do a 5 day ride - either first half or second half.

[Lou Ann]

@gilbertwood just incredible!

[judith deacon]

Where on earth do 4000 cyclists put up overnight on that route!!

[Jane Anderson]

What a scene!

[Carole Sandford]

Wow! That’s a lot ! Bet you were glad they were going in the opposite direction!

[Peter]

Lovely collage telling the story Denise, I like riding my mountain bike but 405 miles would be to much for me:)

[carol white]

A great series of shots

[Margaret Brown]

That’s a long ride and they look very weary! Nice collage of pictures

[Sylvia du Toit]

Well spotted

[Richard Sayer]

They must be training for the Paris-Brest-Paris which takes place every 4 years - 1200km... non stop!

[Janiskay]

Now why doesn’t something interesting like that happen to me? Nice collage!

[Milanie]

Oh my gracious - 4000 - looks like good weather fortunately.

[Lynne]

Wow!

[Marnie]

Oh crikey, it'd be a bit difficult to cross that road. I can't imagine how anyone can ride a bike that far without getting blisters on their backsides.

[Sue Cooper]

That’s a long way to cycle! Nice set of images.

[Rick]

Great shots.
