RACV has been proudly supporting Victorians and their communities for 115 years.

With products and services across travel and leisure, motoring and transport, and the home, RACV delivers a broad range of benefits and experiences to its members.

RACV has a long history of advocating for public safety and transport infrastructure improvements and provides Victorians with information and advice to help build a safer and more resilient Victoria.

Through the RACV Community Foundation, RACV provides a source of philanthropic funding for not-for-profit organisations that help marginalised and at-risk Victorians.

We update and keep in contact with our members through the RoyalAuto magazine, e-newsletters, apps and the RACV website and your business can as well.

RoyalAuto tells stories that inspire and inform so that Victorians can improve their lives in the home, on the road and at leisure. Check out the new sections.

Living well doesn’t have to mean living luxuriously, increasingly it means living sustainably and healthily.

In this content pillar we focus on offering members the resources and ideas to help reduce their ecological footprint while saving money. From fun projects around the home to practical energy-saving tips, Living Well is designed to help RACV members enhance their lifestyles and boost their budgets.

A booming population, sustainability concerns, emerging technology and infrastructure investment are all combining to comprehensively transform how Victorians get around.

Moving Well will tackle the question of how this can best be done on a policy and personal level – think in-depth explanations of the trends shaping Victorian transport to car reviews and snappy portraits of the quirky ways some people commute.

Modern travel is about so much more than mod-cons or luxury – it’s about the richness of experience.

Although interstate and international travel have their place and will still be covered in each edition, the heart of this pillar is our own backyard – Victoria. Travelling Well will help RACV members discover more – from novel road trips to off-the-beaten-track destinations.

Roller skating may have hit its peak in the 1980s, but the appeal of gliding on shoes attached to four small wheels has never truly disappeared. Thanks in part to the new-found popularity of roller derby (credited as one of the world’s fastest-growing sports), roller rinks, skat-ing exercise classes and roller parties are now back in fashion. For commuters wanting to give skating a go, remember to obey the rules relating to skaters, wear appropriate safety gear and always give way to pedestrians.

For a sparkling drive from Melbourne to Sydney, swap the Hume for the hidden gems of

the Princes Highway – and make the most of the coast road less travelled.

Sapphire SO GOOD

Travelling ROAD TRIP

royalauto 4140 royalauto / FEB ~ MAR 2019

the Princes Highway is in the bag. We’ve forgone the nine-hour dash up the Hume and taken the low road instead, setting out from St Kilda for the easy green folds of South Gippsland with its fat cows and glossy nags and postcard-prosperous towns. The arc of the South Gippsland Highway takes us up to Sale via Koonwarra and Port Albert, on to the Princes and through Lakes Entrance, paddocks yellowing with drought.

If a road trip is car plus road plus company I’m well provisioned. We’ve been loaned a smashing Mercedes convertible, my companion is a favourite colleague, and the road is rich and mostly new territory that we have to ourselves far more often than not. Except for wallabies, echidnas, a kookaburra, a hen near Sydney and the two tortoises that Lisa swears she sees while I’m looking the other way.

We also have a map, plastered with sticky-note pit-stop recommendations from anyone with something to say.

After a night at Marlo we carry on east, rock-hopping at Cape Conran’s Sailors Grave Beach then adding a 20-minute leg-stretch around the boardwalked and

I t’s Friday night at the Marlo Hotel in East Gippsland and everyone, it seems, is in on the joke. The sprawling pub set

on a small hill is chockers, pots bouncing across the bar, raffle tickets flying, a line jostling to the bistro counter and the whole joint alight with end-of-working-week cheer.

We wander onto the wide wooden deck laden with punters and find what they might be smiling about. Kids are rolling down the lawn out front, the sun is setting silver, orange, pink then purple over the dunes opposite. And between the two, the storied Snowy River is flowing backwards.

Marlo is where the Snowy meets the sea, and David from the anglers club explains that high tide has temporarily messed with the natural order of things, sending the river back towards the mountains from which it came.

“You were pretty lucky really,” he says. A month earlier the river mouth was almost closed but recent rain has gifted us this little quirk of time and tide.

Day one of our three-day road trip from Melbourne to Sydney via (mostly)

swing-bridged McKenzie River Rainforest Walk, a little loop of sultry air and screaming cicadas just off the highway.

It’s around here that Lisa spots her second ‘tortoise’ on the road so we stop for coffee at the Cann River Cafe where they don’t do runny eggs in their egg and bacon roll, just how we like it. An hour later grey skies have drained the beach vibe at Mal-lacoota, and a pack of pelicans look with painted-on eyes towards Cape Howe 20 kilometres away, the literal turning point of our trip.

It’s here that the continent turns a corner due north and New South Wales begins. So does the ‘Sapphire Coast’, for reasons that become sparklingly clear all the way from the border to Bermagui. The sun comes out too, not far over the border in Eden, and egg and bacon rolls do the switcheroo to bacon and egg.

We linger a while in Eden, where a line of masts divides the main shopping street, and old sailors have a prime berth in the cemetery across from a perfect beach. This has long been whale-spotting territory and a museum here holds the legend and the bones of famed Old Tom, the killer whale >
