Over 500 eager MotoGP™ fans came together today to ride alongside some of the world's best riders, including five-time world champion Mick Doohan, local favourite Jack Miller and 2020 MotoGP™ World Champion Joan Mir, for the Homecoming Ride presented by TAC.

Up-and-coming young Australian riders Senna Agius from the Moto2™ grid and Moto3™ riders Joel Kelso and Jacob Roulstone also joined the day's activities.

A Q&A session with the riders provided the gathered crowd with insight into the mindsets and motivations of those at the pinnacle of the sport.

After the Q&A, the riders led fans for the scenic trip across the San Remo bridge to the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, where they made their way around one and a half laps of the oceanside track.

One of the most successful Australians in the sport's history, Doohan is celebrating 30 years since his first championship victory. On Sunday, he will ride a celebratory lap of the circuit in front of the race day crowds.

The current Australian riders across all three international categories were given plenty of encouragement from Homecoming Ride participants.

Local residents and school students lined the roads to cheer for the procession as they made their way across the San Remo Bridge and onto the Circuit.
