I'll be trying to make this one. The planets seem to be lining up well, but asteroids lurk.

I Would say no, you should start with dedicated level 1 to Level 2 rides and that way you can determine what level you are at before jumping in the deep end. Some rides may start at level 2 but if it is wet it could go straight to clubman plus which if you are only a level 1 or 2 rider will put you way out of your depth. Regards from Will

Hi Dave,
Best to give John T a call, as I am not sure if he is online that much. His number is in the first post.
There is a Level 1/2 ride on Sunday the 4th at Neerim.
Regards
Mat.

I would say NO No NO . John's rides are way to scary for me at the moment, he rides like a Dickhead on steroids,he will take you places that will blow your mind. Down hills "try 90o in some places and 45+ uphills.
This fella should be banned from putting on rides he scares the pants off ya, i'm scared just thinking of the time i went.
But give him a call "he's a good guy"

Make sure you take John's advice and put a nice new soft rear tyre on as you will need it to get up the wet slippery hills.
