Folklore or Fact? There have been 100’s of sightings of Gravel Panthers in the Otways since the mid 1800s. Early tales told of circus escapees or military mascots gone wild. Ferocious. Elusive. An enigma. The modern gravel panther evolved from these wild ancestors - though it’s more likely to be hunting groad than the neighbour’s goat. A social animal, often found in groups foraging for coffee and choc-almond croissants, its predatory roots are only revealed when the next strava segment looms. Join the pack. Eat some pastry. Unleash the beast. 60% of the time, we ride every time.
