ADV FEST History

In 2012 the then founder (Kurt Quambusch) of Australia's first Adventure Riders magazine wanted to start an ADV community event outside of a major city, in an area that riders want to ride to, that was achieved, He contacted the Armidale Adventure Riders who introduced Kurt to a place by the name of Moredon Ponds in the Central West of NSW, In the pic is the original photo taken at Moredon Ponds.

Later the event moved to a place called Tingha (GVF). Dorrigo is the new location the for the event and the surrounding areas offer an Adventure Riding Haven.

A special thanks to Tony Bennett - Armidale Adventure Riders Group.
