That's a great way of lookin at it, Johnny.
If I could do maths, I could break it down to a daily amount.....and it would be peanuts!

Lets look at what you get for your$1.15 a week, unlimited access to club property with hot showers , toilets, cooking facility's , etc. Unlimited access to some of the worlds best comedians, eg Peter R, Me, you and just about everyone else. Well Organized rides all over the place with trained first aiders and equipment like 1st aid bumbags, epirbs and sat phones, unlimited access to club website, free food at monthly meetings, enough free advice to give anyone brain overload, unlimited amount of opinions good and bad, owe did I miss anything ? And all for less than a litre of fuel per week or 16cents a day. |

And you get to to find out where all the pink stuff is to make your bike pretty and look good on the trails - well... We do need all he help we can get.  On a serious note though.... For my money i feel I have gained heaps. Met lots of great people. Have learned so many riding skills that after just 2 years on the bike i feel I can ride..and not just muddle my way along.. Would I have been this far ahead with riding if not for the club? Bang for my buck!!! And very happy:) |

Falling off doesn't hurt, it's the sudden stop that does the damage.

Just found another reason when the phone rang at 4pm this afternoon and my sister inlaw was on the phone telling me my brother inlaw who is not a member of AMTRA who was away camping and trailbike riding with the kids had flipped his bike and was getting in an ambulance and could I go with her to Merton to drive there car and trailer full of bikes and camping gear back home for them so she could then go onto the hospital. This does not seam to be a problem the majority of the time in AMTRA , we seam to look after each other very well with out needing to bother the downed riders family to much, whats that worth, fecking priceless. I bet there has been lots of inhouse rescues over the years from fellow mates in the club, how can you put a price on that, or when someones bikes craps its self out in the middle of no where, trying getting a tow truck into Huggets or Fumina to play rescue. My family are now all home safe and sound and my brother inlaw is being checked out in Maroondah.
But you know what as much as I encourage people to join this great club I would also encourage someone to not join if the club did not suit them or they did not get on with the majority of members and as I always say AMTRA is not for everyone and there is nothing wrong with that, Happy AMTRAing everyone.
