Title: Australia Day Ride! Post by: nathanstott on January 16, 2014, 07,14:12 AM What better way to celebrate Australia Day then getting out into the bush and going for a ride.
This ride will suit good level 2 riders that are looking for a little bit of a challenge and clubman riders wanting a good days ride, but happy to have a couple of stops and to offer assistance to those that need it. Meet at Glenburn Roadhouse at 8am sharp. then drive to the start point, to be on the bikes by 9am at the very latest. Fuel for at least 100 km's Rec reg is fine lunch on the trail, if i'm not in the dog house, which is highly unlikely i might be able to get Sam to meet us with lunch for a small fee of $5. Watch this space on the lunch. Well maintained bikes only please. An Australian Flag must be worn by anyone wanting to attend this ride, up to you on the size and location of the flag. Any questions ask them here. If it's stupidly hot or a total fire ban this ride will be cancelled. Title: Re: Australia Day Ride!

Anyone who has an AMTRA riding shirt will be in the clear (due to the forward thinking of a brilliant designer!) ;) Title: Re: Australia Day Ride! Post by: nathanstott on January 16, 2014, 07,35:01 AM Nothing like a bit of shameless self promotion!! ;D ;D
Tattoos dont count, the flag has to be visible for the whole ride. Title: Re: Australia Day Ride! Post by: Peter r on January 16, 2014, 09,21:26 AM sounds Good to me, not sure what the Ball N Chain has organised, but hopefully Nothing
Which Bike: Berg RMX Title: Re: Australia Day Ride! Post by: nathanstott on January 16, 2014, 09,55:40 AM Probably the rmx, there will be a fair bit of single, but not my full on ride.
