This winter, DAD is proud to partner with Women in Automotive (WinA) for something a little different — and a lot meaningful.

We invite the DAD and WinA communities to join us for our Melbourne Winter Drive Day. Meet us in Geelong - coffees on WinA! - and then enjoy a drive route that will take us south through some of Victoria's best driving roads.

Start location: Geelong

Morning tea: Winchelsea

End location: Anglesea

🚗 Two stage drive purpose-written route, mapped through Tourboss

Our cruise includes a scenic stretch of the Great Ocean Road, and a morning tea stop in Winchelsea, before arriving in Anglesea for a catered lunch, generously sponsored by Euro Panels Geelong.

At lunch, we will be joined by special guests Patricia and Eleanor from the Paddock43 F1 podcast for a fun and honest Q&A panel, and we have fantastic prizes from Ford Australia, Uniden, Honda Australia, and Deus Ex Machina to be won. Plus, each registered vehicle will receive a gift bag with items from some of our event partners.

Connection is one of the most powerful tools for mental health, and that is exactly what this day is built around. Whether you are someone who has experienced the weight of a difficult season, or simply believe in showing up for the people around you, this is a day worth being part of.

No judgement, no minimum car requirement — if you love driving it, bring it along. This is partnership and community in action, and we'd love for you to join us and WinA. How to Participate
