Title: Powelly ride L2/3
Post by: Yarra_Valley on February 08, 2012, 10,07:43 AM


 The Yarra Valley to Powelltown ride. ;D

 I normally run this ride from my house but I will not be able to provide enough parking.  So we will leave from Launch Reserve.

 Riding to Powelltown Hotel ( Powelly Pub ) and back.  Approx. 105km all up, inc all the extra's I have up my sleeve.  Fuel at the pub @ $2.50 a litre ( I normally get 1.5 - 2 litres and that is heaps ). You need to let me know how much you may need so I can let them know - fuel is premium UL.

 BIG Track combo on this ride - it has every thing ! Red clay, loam, bog holes, big log hoppin, big hills, mega rocky rutty stuff from hell, open smooth fast stuff and some nice 'narrow tracks' that are tighter than a nuns  :-X ......   :D

 Going by the law Full Reg bikes are a must, but all of my friends who do this ride all have rec reg so it's you're call.  I, nor AMTRA will be responsible for you're own actions and decisions where you ride and what you ride.

 Limit to 10 riders from AMTRA on this as I have a few of my own crew coming along.

 And yes ... I am leading this ride, and I am A GIRL - and a blonde girl too !!  Scared?  You should be !

 Meeting here at 8:30am SHARP in lower car park - leave at 9am - back about 2:30pm.

2.5km of Bitchy ridin and 1k of dirt road to the tracks - warms up the bikes nicely.

 Late notice as I only ride this time of year if it's wet and cool.

 Cheers

Yazza

I'm not scared of ya Em ;D
First of all a big thanks for putting on a ride for AMTRA those that don't know Em, she has put on lots of rides & it's guaranteed she'll make ya laugh.
I'm not able to attend this ride Em, due to numbness in my right leg & tenderness in the groin, I've had to pull the pin on a few rides now that I'm not happy about, I hope I'll be right for the next one.

Thanx Frankie - I love's ya babe  :-*

 Bummer Pete - you would have liked this one - you are to skilled for a L1/2 ride - you will have to come on the next ride I do to Powlley - some tracks are L3 and higher if they are wet ... would have been right up you're sleve & 5 min drive from home  !!!

Those with Rec Reg that want to come and are worried about Mr Plod can park here:

 You will have to park on the side of the road and please don't park in front of horse paddocks with horses in them! You will need to be ready no later than 9:05am. You can have lunch on the trail just before the pub and you will have to carry you're own fuel.

Fingers crossed I can make the next one - I still haven't been out on our local tracks, so I'm keen to see what's out there.
