Welcome to the Lock & Load Transport Alpine Rally of East Gippsland...
In early December 2021 we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first running of the Alpine in 1921.
The Alpine is the oldest surviving motorsport event in Australia and the second oldest rally in the world! Only a handful of motorsport events, including the French Grand Prix, the Monte Carlo Rally, the Indianapolis 500, Pikes Peak Hill Climb and the Italian Grand Prix, are older.
Join the celebration – be part of #AlpineRally100!
