Great VIc Bike Ride
Activities
Live music
There’s plenty of live music to be enjoyed at this year’s Great Vic. Whether it’s kicking back for an afternoon acoustic session in Spokes Bar, or enjoying one of our huge bands on the main stage, there’s something in this year’s lineup for everyone.
Outdoor cinema
When your body calls for downtime, kick back at the outdoor cinema. Kids’ movies show in the afternoon and adults’ flicks in the evening. Grab some snacks and contemplate the sunset until showtime – we’ll publish a full list of screenings closer to the event.
Bars
Located in Cafe de Canvas, our main bar is the perfect spot to enjoy a local wine with dinner or enjoy the night’s entertainment
With local artists creating a laid back atmosphere at Spokes Bar is a great spot to relax and listen to some tunes on a sunny afternoon. You’ll also be able to grab a bite to eat from one of our food trucks in our bar area.
Pilates, yoga and stretching
Start the day right with one of our free mat pilates or yoga classes. Put aside some time for yourself and strengthen and tone your body in this fun and relaxing class. All ages and abilities are welcome.
If your muscles are screaming after a day in the saddle, our free afternoon stretching sessions hosted by professional cycling coach David Heatley should be on your list.
