With the 2025 Great Victorian Bike Ride approaching in late November, Daniel Scott recounts his memorable experiences from last year’s cycling adventure.
Australian Geographic Adventure
It's nearly three decades since Daniel Scott had his first taste of a mass ride across Australia, when he joined a colourful cavalcade of 800 neon-clad cyclists in 1996.
As a youngish, hot-headed “adventurer”, that 560km trip, from Mount Gambier to Adelaide, was largely an excuse to party hard with a host of characters.
These characters included his oldest mate Hugh, champion cycling socialite John, the all-singing all-dancing Risistor sisters, Victor, the ride Lothario, and Melbourne ecdysiast Penny Lane.
Author's summary: Daniel Scott shares his fun cycling adventure experience.
