The wet weather gear was packed away (but handy, just in case). The ride to Lakes Entrance on a sunny Thursday afternoon was under a warm blue sky. The run down the Monaro Highway into Cann River was sublime. At Cann River the number of motorcycles increased dramatically on Princes Highway, so we weren’t lonely on the final run into our overnight stop at Lakes Entrance.

Though most of us have all the great gear and skills we have learned from the training programs we offer, we still don’t want to put our fellow pilots at risk during the “off-season”. But with the temperatures reaching the 70’s today we went ahead and put together a employee and race team ride this morning, spur of the moment, just so we could blast past your house and wake you up to the sound of motorcycle noise rippin’ down the street. Nothing more motivating then waking up in the paddock rooms above VIR and hearing the expert liter bikes racing down the straight at 160+ miles per hour. This was the next best thing we could think of doing for our community this morning. Keep in close contact with us as the season is upon us to start taking our weekly Sunday Rides with Nate and Frontline Eurosports.

Stop in Montecassino, scenery of one of the most famous battles of the Second World War and seat of one of the most famous abbeys in the world, before continuing towards Basilicata.
