Ulysses Club Yarra Ranges, based in Melbourne, is a social club specifically created for motorbike riders and enthusiasts over the age of 40. The club provides a welcoming and inclusive environment for members to share their passion for motorcycles and connect with like-minded individuals.
Every Saturday morning, the members of Ulysses Club Yarra Ranges gather at the Brunch Café in Eastwood Plaza, Kilsyth South for breakfast or a casual coffee. This informal meetup allows members to socialise and plan future rides together. To join the Ulysses Club, interested individuals can simply visit their website and select the membership application form from the drop-down menu.
The club organises regular social evenings at Club Kilsyth, located on Canterbury Rd in Bayswater North. These social evenings, held on the 4th Thursday of each month, provide an opportunity for members to come together, discuss club matters, and enjoy each other's company.
Ulysses Club Yarra Ranges also arranges special events for its members, such as the Twin Spurs Rally and the Bunnings Fund Raising Sausage Sizzle. The Twin Spurs Rally is a three-day event held at the Marysville Holiday Park. Members need to register before the end of October to secure a cabin in the park. The Bunnings Fund Raising Sausage Sizzle takes place at Bunnings Bayswater, where volunteers are needed to assist with cooking, serving, logistics, setup, and clean up.
For those who enjoy riding, Ulysses Club Yarra Ranges offers a variety of organised rides. The club's Wednesday long rides depart from the Brunch Café in Kilsyth, taking members on a 200-300 km scenic route with a lunch stop at a selected venue. Thursday short rides, which cover around 40-50 km, have recently been added to the ride calendar. Sunday rides, of varying length and destination, start from the Brunch Café and include brief stops to take in the scenery.
In addition to rides and events, Ulysses Club Yarra Ranges also provides information on touring rides and special events happening in Melbourne and surrounding areas. Members have the opportunity to purchase Yarra Ranges apparel, including shirts and winter jackets, as well as name badges through the club.
