Starting at Rippleside Park in Geelong, the 135km Geelong – Melbourne ride travels to Queenscliff where riders jump on the ferry to Sorrento before heading to Melbourne via the iconic Beach Road.

The ride is relatively flat with slight inclines, rolling hills and false flats. However, most of the climbing is within the first 20 kilometres.
