The
British Motorcycle club of
Tasmania is again conducting the ever popular Tassie
Tour. The Vintage / Classic Motorcycle rally in Tasmania from the 3rd to the 14th of March 2024 . Open to all
pre 1970 motorcycles, you will enjoy 10 Nights and 11 Days
of
some of the best motorcycle roads and scenery in the
Country.
For those
who have done this fantastic rally previously, this tour
opens up new
areas not previously ridden but also includes those roads
that make
this rally so popular.

Numbers are
strictly limited to 100 bikes for logistics reasons
(accommodation and
catering limits) so get those expressions of interest in
early to avoid
disappointment as the rally fills fast and is always
greatly
oversubscribed.
The Rally
starts and finishes in Ulverstone, close to where the
Spirit of
Tasmania ferry docks. Assistance will be given to those
who wish to
leave vehicles and/or trailers in Melbourne or Ulverstone
for the
duration of the rally.
Although
the itinerary is yet to be finalised the tour will see us travelling
down the fabulous East Coast to Hobart and Southern areas of the State
before heading back up the West and North Coasts to return to
Ulverstone.
We will
typically travel between 150 and 250 kilometers each day,
all on
bitumen and mostly easy going for Vintage bikes.

Please Note - The
committee advises that due to the hilly, narrow and
winding nature of
Tassie's roads, a
well-developed level of riding skill is recommended.
There
will be ample time allotted for each days ride so take
your time, enjoy
the scenery and arrive safe. Tasmania's climate is also
unpredictable
at times and wet weather may well be encountered at some
stage of the
tour so be prepared.
Accommodation
details will be forwarded at a later date along with a
detailed
itinerary of where we will be staying each night. This
will range from
Caravan Parks to Motels with indicative prices provided.
You will then
be able to book the accommodation of your choice from our
recommended
sites.
