Bill I heard you are going to finally run your level 1-2 ride around King Lake twice next year whats the date's buddy.

I have done that loop with you twice its ready to rock right ?

It is ready to rock the only problem is I havn't been...

Going for a squirt around  there very soon....rumor is all the bridges have been fixed....if so it will make it a very good level 2....will let you know.

Back by popular demand I hope, its on again so be there or be square.
This ride will be very weather dependent, if its a stinking hot day it will not go ahead, but up to low 30s will be fine.
We may be camping after the ride depending on the interest or we may not as Mat and I have had an offer to join another ride the next day so if you don't feel like a long drive home after a big day on the bike let me known and depending on the interest will depend on what we do.
What can I expect to see out there I here you say, well bring your camera cause like most high country rides some spectacular views, 4wds, other bikes, wildlife, hunters, campers, you name it and we may just see it but the landscape and views will be breath taking.
We get to just about the highest of highs and then back down to the lowest of lows and then we get to do that all day long.
As far as the ride goes it will be Level 2 to Clubman. Some big ups and downs, large erosion mounds, rocks and lots of river crossings so please make sure you have done the carby vent hose modifications before you come. If there is enough folks who have not done this and wants some help we can do a workshop day if there is enough interest.
The ride is a full day ride heading off at 9.30am from the DSE meeting point under Cheynes Bridge and need fuel for around 160klm and lots of fluid for rehydraytion and lunch and snacks on the trail.
Returning to the cars before dark, for a well earn t cool swim in the Mcalaster River. <one of the best parts of the ride>. If you love high country riding then this is the ride to be on just as if you want to take your riding to the next level you may just be interested in giving it a crack but you will need to be a competent Level 2 rider to begin with.
I would also suggest Ultra Heavy duty tubes fitted to your bike and of coarse a reliable bike as we are a long way from home once we are out there, two spare tubes and possibly a spare front sprocket, and chain joining links, liquid metal, can of WD40, tyre pump, tyre leavers, might be a good idea to have in your back pack and of coarse enough tools to pull your bike appart and some spare bolts and nuts, and did I mention enough fuel for 160klms.
Numbers are limited to 20 riders and when you reply please send me your mobile number in case of ride cancellation due to weather and fires etc.
Radios are and option but a great idea for a ride like this, we will have a first aid bum bag, sat phone and epirb on this ride, so as usual our safety is paremount.
On the 3/12/12 this ride will be advertised on Dirtriderz website  so if you think you want to be on it get your name on the list and if you wish to pull out then you will need to put someone else up for the ride or make a small donation to the Cathy Steele Fund 
Seriously only put your hand up for the ride if all of the above suits, any questions please call me on 0477690699 Will
