You’re not stuck riding in a line or sitting in somebody else’s dust all day. Follow the supplied GPS tracks\, ride at your own pace and enjoy the adventure with your mates. \nEach day will offer two route options where conditions and terrain allow: \nStandard Route – Designed for larger adventure bikes and riders looking for spectacular ADV riding without the more technical challenges. \nSpecial Route – More technical terrain for smaller bikes or competent riders on larger adventure bikes looking for some extra spice. \nYou can choose the route that best suits you and change between Standard and Special routes throughout the event. \nBoth routes are supported by our experienced RideADV Sweep Crew\, medically trained support riders and support vehicles\, with satellite communications and tracking capability throughout the event. \nPlease note: A minimum 250 km fuel range is required for this ride. \nAnd yes – we carry your luggage! \nAccommodation options include pubs and motels\, allowing you to choose the style and budget that suits you. \nIt’s still Your Ride\, Your Adventure – we’re just there to keep you on track and help you get safely to the finish. \nThis ride is for intermediate to experienced adventure riders. \n💰 How Much? – Tickets for the 2027 South Coast 3-Day Adventure Ride are $575 – an increase of just $35 from last year. Given the rising costs and current economic climate\, we’ve worked hard to keep the increase to a minimum and believe $575 represents exceptional value for three full days of professionally organised and fully supported adventure riding. \n✅ What’s Included \nFully Connected Crew – riders\, vehicles and staff tracked and linked for improved safety and rapid response. \nPremium Rider Routes – custom-built using decades of real-world adventure riding and route knowledge. \nGPS Setup & Support – tracks loaded or supplied\, with navigation support throughout the event. \nSupport Riders & Mechanics – experienced crew on bikes carrying tools and spares\, with multiple mechanically experienced crew members. \n4WD Backup & Recovery – purpose-built support vehicles\, trailers\, recovery equipment and remote-area first aid capability. \nMedical Coverage – medically trained crew on-route throughout the event. \nModern Safety & Communications – tracking\, satellite communications and connected support systems. \nLuggage Transport – we carry your luggage between overnight locations. \nThe Original Industry Leaders – nearly 15 years of delivering professionally organised adventure rides across Australia. \n📋 What’s Not Included \nFuel \nMeals \nAccommodation \nPersonal expenses \n📅 Friday\, 16th April 2027 – Sign-On & Riders Briefing\nLocation: Archer Hotel\, Nowra \nSign-On: 3:00 PM to 7:30 PM \nRiders Briefing: 7:30 PM outside at the Archer Hotel \nSign-on will be held at the Archer Hotel in Nowra from 3:00 PM.

It’s a proper final day rather than just a transport stage\, finishing the three-day adventure back where we started in Nowra. \n⚠️ IMPORTANT RIDER INFORMATION \nPlease remember to sign out every morning and sign back in at the completion of every day’s ride. This is critical to our rider tracking and safety systems. \n🥾 BOOTS ARE MANDATORY – For your safety and protection\, MX motocross or Enduro-style boots with proper ankle support are mandatory. We do not accept soft adventure boots. We have seen too many injuries caused by boots that simply do not provide sufficient protection or support. If you are unsure whether your boots meet the requirement\, contact TB before the event on 0499 089 715. \n🛞 TYRES ARE MANDATORY \nAll motorcycles must be fitted with a minimum 80% off-road / 20% road tyre. This is not negotiable. South Coast conditions can change quickly\, and the correct tyres can be the difference between enjoying the ride and struggling all weekend. If you are unsure about your tyres\, call TB – 0499 089 715 before the event. \n⛽ FUEL RANGE \nA minimum 250 km fuel range is required. Fuel availability can change\, particularly in regional areas\, so riders must refuel at the recommended locations even if they believe they have enough fuel to continue. \n🔧 TUBES & TYRE REPAIRS \nUltra or Heavy-Duty tubes are recommended. If you are running tubeless tyres\, we strongly recommend carrying a suitable tube when a damaged or bent rim prevents the tubeless system from holding air. If you are running tubeless please make sure you have a plug kit. It is our recommendation that you fit tubes. Based on our extensive experience riding off-road\, we firmly believe tubeless tyres have no place in serious off-road adventure riding. \n🚑 AMBULANCE COVER \nAmbulance cover is strongly recommended. \n🧭 GPS & NAVIGATION \nThis is a GPS navigation ride. RideADV will supply the tracks for each day’s riding and assist with loading compatible GPS units. Riders using tablets or navigation apps will be supplied with the relevant GPX files. \n⚠️ IMPORTANT – BACK UP YOUR GPS BEFORE THE EVENT \nPlease back up any existing tracks or routes that you wish to keep. We need sufficient free space on your GPS to load the RideADV tracks and routes. We strongly prefer riders to arrive with a Garmin cleared of unnecessary old tracks and routes. \nRideADV cannot be responsible for existing tracks that need to be removed to create sufficient space or prevent confusion during the event. \nFor best results\, we recommend: \n\nTrack-Up orientation\n3D mode OFF\nRoute recalculation OFF\nSufficient free track space available before sign-on\n\n🏆 Ride With Australia’s Premier Adventure Tour Company \nFor nearly 15 years\, RideADV has been delivering professionally organised\, fully supported adventure rides through some of the best riding country in Australia. This three-day South Coast event combines new routes\, premium South Coast terrain\, proven Yamaha Ténéré Rally tracks\, full RideADV support and two nights based in Batemans Bay. \nIt’s what we do. \nYour Ride. Your Adventure. \n📞 Questions?  \nContact TB – 0499 089 715 \nEmail: info@rideadv.com.au \nFinal route distances and event details will be confirmed following the pre-run.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

We do not accept soft adventure boots. We have seen too many injuries caused by boots that simply do not provide sufficient protection or support. If you are unsure whether your boots meet the requirement\, contact TB before the event on 0499 089 715.\n– TYRES ARE MANDATORY – All motorcycles must be fitted with a minimum 80% off-road / 20% road tyre. This is not negotiable. Central West conditions and terrain can change quickly\, and the correct tyres can make the difference between enjoying the ride and struggling through sections. If you are unsure about your tyres\, call TB – 0499 089 715 before the event.\n– FUEL RANGE – The final minimum fuel range will be confirmed following the pre-run. Fuel availability can change\, particularly in regional areas\, so riders must refuel at all recommended locations even if they believe they have enough fuel to continue.\n– TUBES & TYRE REPAIRS – Ultra or Heavy-Duty tubes are recommended. If you are running tubeless tyres\, we strongly recommend carrying a suitable tube in case a damaged or bent rim prevents the tubeless system from holding air. We recommend you have a tubeless tyre plug kit.\n– AMBULANCE COVER – Ambulance cover is strongly recommended.\n\n\n\n– GPS & NAVIGATION – This is a GPS navigation ride. RideADV will supply the tracks for each day’s riding and assist with loading compatible GPS units. Riders using tablets or navigation apps will be supplied with the relevant GPX files every evening.\n– IMPORTANT – BACK UP YOUR GPS BEFORE THE EVENT Please back up any existing tracks or routes that you wish to keep. We need sufficient free space on your GPS to load the RideADV tracks and routes. We strongly prefer riders to arrive with a Garmin cleared of unnecessary old tracks and routes. RideADV cannot be responsible for existing tracks that need to be removed to create sufficient space or prevent confusion during the event.\n\nFor best results\, we recommend: \n\n– Track-Up orientation\n– 3D mode OFF\n– Route recalculation OFF\n– Sufficient free track space available before sign-on\n\n  \n\nRide With Australia’s Premier Adventure Tour Company\nFor nearly 15 years\, RideADV has been delivering professionally organised\, fully supported adventure rides through some of the best riding country in Australia. The Central West 3-Day Navigation Adventure Ride brings together some of the best riding the region has to offer – Sunny Corner\, Hill End\, the Bridle Track\, Ophir\, Wellington country\, Gulgong\, Razorback Road\, Sallys Flat\, Worlds End and the Turon River – along with plenty of lesser-known farm tracks\, forests\, twin trails and back-country routes in between. Three full days. Three great Central West towns. Premium GPS routes and the full RideADV support package. \nIt’s what we do. Your Ride. Your Adventure. \nQuestions?\nContact TB – 0499 089 715\nEmail: info@rideadv.com.au \nFinal route distances\, fuel requirements and event details will be confirmed following the pre-run.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Imagine winding through ancient mountain ranges\, navigating rocky creek beds\, riding remote station twin tracks\, crossing vast open plains and exploring spectacular gorges. These are places many Australians will never experience\, let alone explore from the seat of an adventure motorcycle! \nFrom the famous Razorback Lookout overlooking Bunyeroo Valley to Brachina Gorge\, the rugged mountain country surrounding Arkaroola and the endless horizons of the South Australian outback\, there’s plenty to get excited about. And when the riding is finished for the day\, there’s nothing better than sitting around with like-minded riders\, sharing a meal\, enjoying a drink and talking about the adventures you’ve just experienced. \n🔥 NEW TRACKS\, NEW ADVENTURES AND SOME OLD FAVOURITES!\nFor 2027\, we’re changing things up! While we’re returning to the magnificent Flinders Ranges\, this isn’t simply a repeat of our previous events. The RideADV team has been working on significant changes to our previous routes\, incorporating exciting new tracks\, fresh challenges and some absolute favourites from past Flinders adventures. \n📍 Our start and finish base is Peterborough\, South Australia. \nWe’ll gather for sign-on on Sunday 20 June 2027\, head into the ranges on Monday morning and return to Peterborough at the end of day five on Friday 25 June. \n🏕️ Two nights at Hawker and two nights at Arkaroola! \nThis overnight format gives us more time to explore. Our two loop days will be particularly special\, with no need to pack up accommodation and move on each morning. Expect flowing gravel roads\, spectacular gorge trails\, challenging station twin tracks\, rocky climbs and remote outback navigation. \n🏍️ Standard and Special route options will be available on selected days\, allowing riders to choose the level of adventure that best suits their experience. \nNEW TRACKS. OLD FAVOURITES. NEW CHALLENGES. FIVE DAYS OF PROPER OUTBACK ADVENTURE RIDING! \n🏔️ WHY THE FLINDERS RANGES?\nThere’s something very special about the Flinders Ranges. Ancient folded mountains\, deep gorges\, rugged ridgelines and extraordinary rock formations create a landscape that changes constantly as you ride. One minute you’re travelling along a wide-open station track surrounded by endless plains and distant mountains. The next\, you’re riding through a narrow gorge with towering rock walls and ancient creek beds winding through the valley. \n🌿 You’ll see magnificent river red gums\, native pines and spectacular natural colours. \n🦘 Keep an eye out for kangaroos\, emus\, wedge-tailed eagles and the magnificent yellow-footed rock-wallabies. \nThe Flinders Ranges are the traditional country of the Adnyamathanha people. Throughout the region\, you’ll also find reminders of pastoral and mining history\, from old station homesteads and mining settlements to remote stock routes. \nIt’s a region where scenery\, history and riding combine — and we reckon one of the best ways to experience it is on an adventure motorcycle! \n\n\n\n📋 EVENT OVERVIEW – EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW\n📅 Ride Dates: Monday 21 – Friday 25 June 2027 \n📝 Sign-On: Sunday 20 June 2027 \n📍 Start and Finish: Peterborough\, South Australia \n🏍️ Duration: Five days of GPS navigation adventure riding \n🌏 Open To: All brands and makes of adventure motorcycles \n🏕️ Overnight Stops: Hawker (two nights) and Arkaroola (two nights) \n🛏️ Accommodation: Camping\, cabins\, caravan parks and motel-style options \n🧭 Navigation: RideADV-prepared GPS routes \n🔥 Route Options: Standard and Special on selected days \n🚚 Event Support: Experienced RideADV crew\, sweep riders\, medical support and dedicated luggage truck \n🔵 Proudly Supported By: Yamaha Australia \n\n\n\n📝 DAY ZERO – SUNDAY 20 JUNE 2027\n📍 SIGN-ON DAY – PETERBOROUGH\, SOUTH AUSTRALIA\n🕛 Sign-On Time: 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm SHARP \n📍 Location: Peterborough – exact venue to be confirmed \nOur adventure begins in Peterborough\, where riders and the RideADV crew will gather before heading into the magnificent Flinders Ranges. \nSign-on and motorcycle scrutineering will take place between midday and 5:00 pm. \n🎁 Every rider will receive: \n\nRideADV rider entry gift bag\nEvent motorcycle stickers\nLimited-edition 2027 RideADV Flinders event T-shirt\n\nOur crew will also check your motorcycle to ensure you’re properly prepared for the conditions and challenges ahead.

This is critical to our rider tracking and safety systems. \n– 🥾 BOOTS ARE MANDATORY\nFor your safety and protection\, MX motocross or Enduro-style boots with proper ankle support are mandatory. We do not accept soft adventure boots. We have seen too many injuries caused by boots that simply do not provide sufficient protection or support. If you are unsure whether your boots meet the requirement\, contact TB before the event on 0499 089 715. \n– 🛞 TYRES ARE MANDATORY\nAll motorcycles must be fitted with a minimum 80% off-road / 20% road tyre. This is not negotiable. North Coast conditions can change quickly\, and the correct tyres can be the difference between enjoying the ride and struggling all weekend. If you are unsure about your tyres\, call TB – 0499 089 715 before the event. \n– ⛽ FUEL RANGE\nA minimum 250 km fuel range is required. Fuel availability can change\, particularly in regional areas\, so riders must refuel at the recommended locations even if they believe they have enough fuel to continue. \n– 🔧 TUBES & TYRE REPAIRS\nUltra or Heavy-Duty tubes are recommended. If you are running tubeless tyres\, we strongly recommend carrying a suitable tube when a damaged or bent rim prevents the tubeless system from holding air. If you are running tubeless\, please make sure you have a plug kit. It is our recommendation that you fit tubes. Based on our extensive experience riding off-road\, we firmly believe tubeless tyres have no place in serious off-road adventure riding. \n– 🚑 AMBULANCE COVER\nAmbulance cover is strongly recommended. \n\n\n\n– 🧭 GPS & NAVIGATION\nThis is a GPS navigation ride. RideADV will supply the tracks for each day’s riding and assist with loading compatible GPS units. Riders using tablets or navigation apps will be supplied with the relevant GPX files. \n⚠️ IMPORTANT – BACK UP YOUR GPS BEFORE THE EVENT\nPlease back up any existing tracks or routes that you wish to keep. We need sufficient free space on your GPS to load the RideADV tracks and routes. We strongly prefer riders to arrive with a Garmin cleared of unnecessary old tracks and routes. RideADV cannot be responsible for existing tracks that need to be removed to create sufficient space or prevent confusion during the event. \nFor best results\, we recommend: \n\n– Track-Up orientation\n– 3D mode OFF\n– Route recalculation OFF\n– Sufficient free track space available before sign-on\n\n\n\n\n🏆 Ride with Australia’s Premier Adventure Tour Company\nFor nearly 15 years\, RideADV has been delivering professionally organised\, fully supported adventure rides through some of the best riding country in Australia. The Triple B North Coast 3-Day Navigation Ride brings together three days of outstanding North Coast riding\, premium GPS routes\, experienced RideADV support and two nights based in Kempsey. \nIt’s what we do. \nYour Ride.
