Under the banner of Ducati Xpeditions, Ducati is set to host a pilgrimage from the Southern Highlands of NSW to Phillip Island in Victoria, just in time for the return of MotoGP to the famous island circuit.
The adventure will be the first of a new series of multi-day motorcycle tours. Hosted by the accomplished team at Maschine, the Ducati Xpeditions will provide Multistrada, Desert X and Scrambler Desert Sled owners the chance to unite and explore less-travelled parts of the country.

Starting in Bowral on October 10, 2022, the inaugural Ducati Xpedition will take punters on a four-day tour through lush rainforest, alpine high country, and rolling green hills east of Melbourne. The route will visit iconic riding locations like the Barry Way, McKillops Bridge, and historic mining towns like Walhalla.
With the tour officially ending in Marysville, Victoria, participants will be given route options to Phillip Island for the chance to attend the 2022 Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix. It will be the first time since 2019 that MotoGP has been held at the iconic circuit overlooking Bass Strait.
The tour will offer different routes to cater for both tarmac and dirt, with riders able to choose their preferred terrain based on whether they want to head off the beaten track, or carve up twisties on the blacktop.
Maschine will take care of all tour logistics, with the route, fuel and food stops, and accommodation all planned out for the riders. The tour will also include technical and sweep support, luggage transport, medical assistance, and Ducati special guest appearances. Accommodation and most meals are included, making for an A-list riding experience.
Spots on the inaugural Ducati Xpedition are limited to just 35, with this event helping to build the framework for future Ducati Xpeditions. Pricing starts at $2700 per person for twin-share accommodation, with various upgrades also available.
