Title: Buxton North Level 1 Post by: Dirtpilot72 on June 21, 2011, 11,35:09 AM Level 1 Beginner ride around the Buxton North/Black Range area.
I am trying out a new type of beginner ride after doing a few other easy rides. Ride will start late and ride will only last about 5 hours in total. Looking for some experienced helpers as well. In the morning i will lead a 3 hour ride for the helpers to burn off some energy and get a good fast paced ride in. We will then head back to the cars to start the level 1 ride. Looking to achieve a 1/3 experienced to 2/3 level 1 ratio. The level 1 ride will be easier than my past attempts at running this type of ride, but at this time of year it is impossible to avoid eveything. No hard hills and more open terrain. Level 1 riders only. Post up and indicate level 1. No limit. As for experienced riders post up and indicate if you are helping out. I will take on only as as required to keep ratio with level 1 riders. First in best dressed. Directions: Take Maroondah hwy through Healsville, Narbethong, Buxton, just before Taggerty turn left into Glendale lane. Follow until you reach courner of Cameros rd and Glendale lane.Ride starts here. .......................................................... Level 1 ride start time 11am About 60km total Finish about 4pm Good tyres highly recommended Full tank of fuel Take lunch out with you Call me for any other info. 0419352402 .......................................................... Experienced ride details, Level 2 to 3 Start time 8.30 Bring extra fuel to rfill tank About 50 km loop Good tyres are always good ........................................................

As a newbie it was a great learning day for me, my first time riding on sludgy soft surfaces which I had been avoiding prior to this ride. Special thanks to Bob and Fred for their patience and encouragement. Cate |
