Gravity Girls Melrose Trip | Fri 26th - Sun 28th June
About this event
Escape, Connect, Evolve 🌿🚵♀️
Join us for a relaxed and social weekend away in Melrose with the Gravity Girls SA crew! This trip is all about riding bikes, hanging out, and soaking up good company in a beautiful location.
🎟️ Register Your Spot
Please make sure you register / grab a ticket for this trip so we know who’s coming and can plan rides and comms accordingly. This event is for paid Gravity Girls SA members.
👉 This is super important even though you’re organising your own accommodation and transport.
This is a social, largely self-managed weekend – we’ll organise a couple of optional guided rides, but outside of those, you’re free to ride, explore, or chill at your own pace 🙌
👉 Accommodation is booking out quickly, so we strongly recommend locking something in ASAP!
