OBT 4th Birthday Ride weekend 2nd & 3rd of June 2012

Old Bull Trailriders turns 4, yes 4 years young :woohoo: We will be holding the annual birthday weekend at Sunny Corner again this year. This is everyone chance to get together like last years awesome weekend, have a ride, laugh, a social sip or two, bag a bargain in the auction and maybe score a lucky door prize :silly:
There will be prize give aways, an auction to raise money to keep OBT going for the next 12 months .

This years Birthday ride weekend is different to previous years in that everyone will drive themselves to the camp. You can bring whatever you need and want. The closest servo is about 8kms away so it’s easier to bring everything. At this stage dinner will be catered

OK the poll is over 42 people have voted to have the Saturday night catered this means majority rules. I will organise the catering at a cost of $30 per person. If you are coming to the Birthday weekend and do not want to eat the catered dinner at a cost of $30 each PM me please by the 18th of May. . If you front and haven’t PM’ed me you will be expected to pay your $30 because we have to pay up front. Please let others coming that don’t go online much know please. Our treasurer Mick will collect the money and give you a meal ticket. You will also get a cold drink or beer with your meal.

The dinner menu is

Any money left over will go to the night’s auction proceeds. Once we hit our running cost target we will all have a vote and work out which charity we will help

Chris, Mal and I to name a few will be getting there on Friday at sometime, the exact location and a map will be posted soon

1/ navigation style pub lunch grade 2 / ADV bike ride

2/ Mal5.1 going for a grade 3 style loop you would be welcome to follow (who Galey says can ride)

3/ Galey I heard is going for a grade 4/5 ride and he said people are welcome to follow if you want

4/ Medogrocket said when he goes others are welcome to follow

Medogrocket and Mal5.1 have decided to do two different grade 3 style of rides.

Mal5.1’s ride will be a kind of introduction to grade 3. The terrain will be grade 3 with a fair bit of fire trail, a few hill challenges but will be aimed at the less experienced riders that want to try a bit more technical stuff. I’ll ask the more experienced riders in this group to help, encourage and offer advice to the less experienced riders so that they enjoy the ride as well. And this group will be riding off at a more respectable time of 9am ish. There is still frost at 10am in the area.

Medogrocket’s ride will be for the more experienced riders that don’t want to do Galey’s ‘hills of death’ ride. He will use some of the same tracks from Mal5.1’s loop and Galey’s loop and throw some other good stuff in as well. As he said he will be winging it most of the way but he does know his way around. He also knows the snotty stuff that Galey will be using and avoid it like the plague (maybe).

You can choose which rider you would like to follow on the day, pm Mal5.1 or you can ride on your own if that’s your thing.

Saturday afternoon

Same as the morning, the grade 2 will be returning in the afternoon

Can I ask everyone coming to pm Mal5.1 or post up the rider they would like to ride with if they dont mind people following?

Make sure know/read the corner man system and understand it. Cornerman system

Prize giveaways, auction with all money raised going towards OBT site costs, film and videos running on the big screen from the days riding uploaded for your viewing pleasure. The evening will no doubt wind down with the ring of knowledge around the fire

Accommodation is by camping only at Mary Camp (last years site) you will be required to bring everything fuel included. Registered bikes only

More details as they come to hand, watch for updates.

Please come along to this fun weekend and help support OBT

I am pleased to announce with the help of Steve from Adventure Moto that Yamaha Australia have argeed to bring two new WR450Fs demos to Sunny Corner to be test ridden by the Old Bulls. Given the interest members have shown in this bike it was a no brainer and I for one know people will be impressed by these new WRs

The how and where it will work on the weekend is yet to be sorted. Once it’s worked out I will post it up.

Thanks Steve and thanks Yamaha
