Working bee over the long weekend to do general maintenance on the block in preparation for the HCR 09.
More details to come.
Opportunities for some riding are expected, but the focus will be getting the property ready for HCR.

AMTRA's property at Abbeyard is in the Victorian High Country about 50 km south of Myrtleford on the Buffalo river. The riding from there is some of the best you'll get in Victoria. It's about a 4 hr trip from Melbourne. |

Hi zoro,
No problems that you can't make the coming working bee weekend. Coming to the next one is fine.
Even if you have not come to any other AMTRA rides or activities you are still welcome to volunteer at the HCR, which is a great way to meet lots of the members.
Regards
Mat.

Main activitiy will be to clear the camping areas, using the mower and slasher the club has aquired.
Most tools needed will be there. A chainsaw would be handy if anyone has one they are willing to bring.
Will also be going through the shed to stocktake HCR equipment.
Apart from that, plan for a ride on Sunday afternoon and a few beers on Sunday evening.
Food is self catered.

So unlike past working bees at the property for the HCR where the club has put on at least one meal and drinks for the people who make the effort and give their time we now have to also have feed ourselves for the whole weekend  So what is the club offering as an incentive for the people who give up their time and money for the weekend! |

The HCR will supply drinks on Sunday night. I don't have numbers of who is going - I think about 10 from the last GM.
If there is interest I will arrange for a BBQ meal on Sunday night for after a ride. I won't be riding so can go into Myrtleford for supplies. How does that sound?
BTW - I have no bike so will not be putting a ride on over the weekend.
And maybe I will bring along a plate of sandwiches.
Mat.
