Title: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on September 21, 2009, 11,38:53 PM Phil Wilkinson from ZeroX motorcyles will be bringing the rec registered bikes out to Cobaw.
Come and find out first hand what they are like to ride. More details later, for now this is so you can put it in your diaries. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: chrism on September 22, 2009, 12,53:12 AM Hey better bring some spare batteries if the number of riders on your ride keeps growing!
Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: spower on September 22, 2009, 11,48:43 AM if someone can bring a generator and extension lead I'll have a go at riding it up chicken/rooster hill !
Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: pez on November 05, 2009, 08,04:39 PM Is there going to be a normal ride done as well ?
would like to meet some of you guys and as i don't know cobaw that well may need a guide Thanks guys Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: timmey on November 15, 2009, 05,38:35 AM Hi Matt
Put me down ,I've been following these bikes for a while and would like to see them up close. I race electric Rc cars too and would like to see if some of the electric are simular. I can see these bikes taking off , in say a indoor factory motor-x track in the suburbs. see you guys on the day Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: MarcL on November 16, 2009, 11,27:52 PM Hey Mat, are you puting on the morning & arvo ride as well?
If so, count me in 'cos I haven't ridden at Cobaw yet. Timmey, let me know if you want a lift. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on November 17, 2009, 01,09:40 AM Still working on confirming this - looks o.k. so far.
If the Zero's are not able to make it for some reason (they are confirmed for the Club meeting Wed 25th) then it will be a normal ride in the morning. Going to post up an afternoon ride as soon as I know details of the electric bikes. So expect to meet Cobaw 8:30 a.m. for 9:00 a.m. riding on 28th Nov. Meeting point is the Ridge Rd carpark, at the intersection with Devanney Trk. Use the south entrance to Cobaw State Forest. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: timmey on November 17, 2009, 11,28:22 AM Hey Mat, are you puting on the morning & arvo ride as well? I'll be ok to get there , Thank you for the offer , Really want to see these eletric bikes in action If so, count me in 'cos I haven't ridden at Cobaw yet. Timmey, let me know if you want a lift. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: tinks on November 19, 2009, 11,22:19 AM So if the zero's don't make it we can have a full day's ride anyway can't we or is that too much. Well I'm looking forward to riding one if they do get there.
cheers. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on November 19, 2009, 01,05:08 PM I'll be there from 8:30. Hopefully the Zero's make it, otherwise there will be a morning ride followed by an afternoon ride.
Level per ability of those present. Mat. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: pez on November 19, 2009, 08,09:11 PM Thanks Matt for the update
Put me down for the AM and PM rides I may be bringing some friends but will let you know in advance. ;D Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: colinp on November 21, 2009, 07,52:42 AM Hi Matt
Count me in for the AM and PM ride. Colin Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: colinp on November 22, 2009, 07,40:12 AM Hi Matt
I have just realised it’s my wife’s birthday and we are going out for the day so I will have to take my name off the list. I suppose I could always bring her along to the Cobaw Forest for a picnic!! Maybe next time.

Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: chrism on November 24, 2009, 10,17:09 AM Any updates if the sparkies will be there?
Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on November 24, 2009, 11,52:44 AM Last update was that it seems likely to happen.
Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: MarcL on November 24, 2009, 09,54:35 PM G'day Matt, Have never been to Cobaw before.
What is the easiest way to get to the car park from the Calder Fwy ? Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on November 24, 2009, 10,53:37 PM C324 exit off Calder, turn right. 4km turn left at sign for Hanging Rock, continue straight ahead through Newham, then over crossroad. You will get to a T intersection, turn right and follow road into Cobaw State Forest. Continue up hill along Ridge Rd and carpark is on left about 2-3 km along road. Hard to miss.
Mat. Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: MarcL on November 24, 2009, 11,26:35 PM Thanks Mat, looks easy. See ya there !
Mazdemo - NO F'N EXCUSES !!! Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Mat R on November 25, 2009, 04,51:55 AM Well the bad news is that the ZeroX will not be attending. The distributor has a personal engagement on Saturday and has no other staff able to bring the bike out.
The good news is that I am still going riding, and you can all follow me. The ZeroX is being rescheduled for January, so keep a lookout for it. See you all at Cobaw. Mat.

The lvl will be HTFU. Starting at about the same time as you guys so if anyone wants to tag along thats fine. Keep in mind it will be lvl HTFU (need to break a few of the smartarses!). So well be doing most of the tracks I avoid for the usual Cobaw rides :) Title: Re: ZeroX Demo Ride Post by: Jackhammer on November 25, 2009, 08,11:02 PM Well the bad news is that the ZeroX will not be attending.
