Wilderness Bike Ride Association is a grassroots community group based in Orbost,  East Gippsland, Victoria and was born out of the need to create a new future for Far East Gippsland. With the traditional timber industry in decline, our community is seeking new ways to remain vibrant and strong. Couple this with the fact that we live on the doorstep of some of the best cycling country Australia has to offer and you have the Wilderness Bike Ride Association.

We are   committed to developing recreational bike rides that build ecotourism in Far East Gippsland, as a means of creating a community building enterprise that offers people of all ages opportunities to participate, build skills and develop links between communities.

Our first event, the Wilderness Bike Ride Errinundra to the Snowy 2004 was an outstanding success. It was not only a sensational ride, it provided a positive new experience for the 70 odd volunteers involved and demonstrated to the community and those who invest in it  the huge potential of both our natural environment and the people who live here.

Presently we offer two annual cycling events and have an affiliated cycling group - SNOBS (WBR Inc.) , Snowy Orbost Bicycle Society.

Wilderness Bike Ride is proud to be a Waste Wise event
