Title: Robs Big River to Woods Point Ride Post by: Rudi on July 29, 2012, 06,44:49 AM Hey Rob thanks for an awesome day out.
You chose good mix of tracks with nothing too hard for the whole group. Good gloves waterproofs and warm gear are most recommended at this time of the year as we all found out When we got soaked in the rain. After Adams rear wheel flat we headed straight for the pub at woods point and dried the damp gear and warmed the freezing bodies and hands. We all had a good feed, fueled up and hit the trail for the afternoon loop. The ride was about 150km and we got back to the Big River campsite around 4:30 It is very recommended to go on one of Robs rides. My body certainly let me know that i had a day on the trails. Thanks Rob Title: Re: Robs Big River to Woods Point Ride Post by: RAZZ450 on July 29, 2012, 07,19:15 AM Hi Rob,
Thanks for putting on a good ride. The steep and rocky terrain made for an interesting day especially due to the wet weather. Sorry to the guys for holding you up when I unfortunatly got a rear puncture. A big thanks to Jeff (tailman) for all your help. See you on the next ride Adam :) Title: Re: Robs Big River to Woods Point Ride Post by: Jeff Davey on July 29, 2012, 08,48:22 AM Hi Rob

It was a great day with a mix of everything, hot on the skinny tracks and freezing on the open trails. It was also a good reminder to take a rain jacket this time of year as you just don't know what the day holds. Thanks Rob looking forward to catching up soon. Colin
