About the Rotary Bike Education Track
The Sunrise Rotary Group is excited to be driving a community-led initiative to create a Bike Education Track in East Gippsland. The track will be set among beautiful established trees in a local park and conveniently located near Lucknow Primary School, kindergarten and childcare facilities, as well as Eastwood Retirement Village.
