Want To Be A Test Rider?
If you're envious of the pros and journalists who have access to all the latest and greatest bikes, or maybe you're looking to purchase a new Gas Gas but can't decide on the model, this is the trip for you. Ben "Grabbo" Grabham, Gas Gas Australia, ADB, and A1 Accessories have teamed up to offer the ultimate test riding experience, spread over two days with coaching and the full range of Gas Gas machines.

Get Ready!
It wouldn't be a 'VIP Experience' if you had to lift a finger, that's not how the pros do it. Living up to its name, everything is done for you, bikes, food, accommodation, it's all covered. That leaves you with the question, what do I need to concern myself with? Firstly, you need to get yourself to and from the tour and once you're there you'll need:
- Gear! Full face helmet that passes Australian standards, riding boots, pants and jersey, gloves and socks (pack some spares), and a weatherproof riding jacket
- Hydration pack with room to carry some necessities with you while you're riding
- Toiletries & any other essentials for a weekend away
- Road motorcycle license
