Re Big River Ride

Open fire trails include lots of ROCKS, EROSON MOUNDS AND SPOON DRAINS ;D ;D............some really big UPs and some really big DOWNS..........AND A WHOLE LOT OF FUN.

Mmmmm... sounds like it might be a bit too challenging for me; not ready for it yet, so I'd better pass on this one  ::)...Cheers, Marls

Rob,

I love riding this area!  Can you please put Damian and me down as starters.

One question though, are you sure that fuel is available?  I haven't heard anything since the General Store closed.

Cheers!

PS - c'mon Marls, it's a great ride!
 :)

yes there is fuel for sure......we fuel up there frequently and rob and I will have the tankers on as well.

And post some more detail on the terrain I'll bail as well - perhaps not quitre up to this one yet. Cheers David

From memory when I first went to Woods point years ago as a beginner the hills in were steep ups and downs near the township believe my skills have improved to tackle them better this time. And David if your on the 450 Yamaha you should be OK!

Bard - probably wrong David! [David on Suzuki DRZ250]

Hi Serge,
I know I'll be missing an awesome ride  :'( and would love to tag along (do look forward to one day being able to park outside that famous pub), but after speaking to some chaps at at Marysville on Sunday, they advised me against it. We'll just have to have that chardy after another ride  ;). Maybe the next Pete's level 1 ride in Eildon???
Cheers,
Marls

Consider it a date!

 ;D

I must have read the level wrong its a level 2 2 2  am i right any way you can always go round  boundry track ????

pretty keen on this ride after talking to another amtra member..im up for a challenge..reserve 2 spots pls..

Rob,
I am out; it appears I fractured my left Fibula and bruised two ribs Saturday morning whist leading the Neerim South ride. Ride finished at 3pm got to hot!

Hey Brad,
Hope your ok & can ride with us soon.. Fred's in Casey hospital at the moment with severe food poisoning/gastro/dehydration from drinking the Latrobe river water on Saturday! Had to get him carted away in an ambulance yesterday, pretty scary??? He'll be ok but in there for a few days. He took same great photo's of your ride which I'll post later tonight when I get home. I let him know what's happened to you  :'(
Cheers,
Marls

Won't be able to make this as much as I would love to go.

Marls - I sucked up quite a bit of the Latrobe river on Saturday and have not had a problem. Hope Freds feels better soon.

You people all sound dangerous to be around!

Lemme know what rides you are all doing and I'll avoid them!!

 ;D

Can you please put me down for this ride.

Sounds like fun. Haven't ridden to Woods Point for a couple of years.

Marls,
I also drank a fair bit of the water from the river and am fine. Looking at what was left in my camelbak I actually drank about 2.5 litres of it.

Cheers
Ash

Hey Brad, fractured fibula!! no wonder you were having troble changing gears, Get well soon mate.
I drank 2 litres of water from the Latrobe river without any problems, but i did fill up my camel back before Leo went for a swim in it!!

Folks,
Thanks for the wishes; boots are boots just get a good pair you like. I won't be changing from SIDI they are comfortable and relatively waterproof. The fall was not a big off, the ground was hard pack with a dusty grit on it and the front washed out the instant I touched the front brake, I was just unlucky when my left ankle was trapped sliding under the swing arm, all OK so far. Then the bars dug in and the bike halted I felt the rear lift up under momentum only to come down hard and break the Fibula bone in two places & into three pieces. Plaster is on 8 weeks they say. Shi!!!!


Marls sorry to hear Fred is not well, hope he gets better soon, please pass on my regards.

I drank the best bit of 2lt of that water and I took today off work with Gastro.

I remember someone saying "oh well if were all sick tomorrow we'll know why"

Does this mean we are going to have a "Welcome Back Brad Ride" in a few months? maybe at Eildon with Pegleg Pete ???

Anyone who drinks out of a stream/river must
have rocks in their head ???

Hey Eric, that's were the water in the tap comes from!!

Yes it does Chrism after its been treated and
filtered ??? and most of the areas for drinking
water have limited or no public access :-*

Hi Rob

This sounds like a great ride, can you count myself and one other in, see you at 0830.

Thanks

Colinp

Damn, just saw this ride has been cancelled. I was looking forward to it.

Hope the injury isn't to bad.

Cheers
Ash

BUMMER,

Sorry to hear that, Rob.

Hope you heal soon.

 :(
