The actual annual Snowy Ride, which started in 2000, is no longer being held,

but some of us ( and many from other areas) have continued the tradition the last few years.

This year we had 30 participants (21 bikes + pillions and a few on 4 wheels)  and nearly all were booked in at the Kookaburra Lodge.
