GraVeloRoo
Things To Do Crows Nest, Toowoomba, Queensland
VeloRoo was born to share a love of cycling with others while supporting them in any and every possible way. GraVeloRoo is the gravel riding branch of the business.
Since 2012 VeloRoo has been the leader in offering innovative and personalised cycling holidays. International award-winning experiences that combine the joy of cycling with exploration and regional immersion.
VeloRoo’s road bike holidays and GraVeloRoo’s gravel bike adventures are curated with a sense of challenge – but not overwhelming – adventure and enjoyment and deliver memories created through moments of laughter and community. Their itineraries utilise local backroads unlikely to be found on general maps and so are designed to be guided, with vehicle support.
When riding with GraVeloRoo your safety is always their priority. Cycling is all about emotion and enjoyment. A challenging spirit is more rewarding than a competitive spirit. Their focus is always the joy of riding, not the “thrill” of risk. They measure it by Smiles Per Hour!
Choose between Southern Queensland Country districts of Granite Belt and Northern Downs High Country, South Burnett and Brisbane Valley Rail Trail (BVRT)
Their dedication to small group sizes rewards them with relationships being created more like family than clients.
They look forward to welcoming you to GraVeloRoo’s expanding global cycling family.

This is not a guided ride however there will be a couple of lead riders on the course if you choose to ride with them but they will keep at a general pace. You will be emailed a GPX file in order to follow the route. The support van will be a check point enroute to ensure everyone has made it through each section and will sweep the course if necessary. The support van will also have extra water onboard and ride snacks to help you refuel. You can also pop your backpack in the van to be able to access at the checkpoints.
