    Who is keen to do a gr 2- 3 ride around the Buttaba area on Sat 11th May.

    Only catch is someone will have to volunteer to lead this bc I have no idea of the tracks but really liked the area last time I was there.

    Happy to have a break and watch while some of the more experienced riders shoot off and tackle the grade 4-5 sections.

    Might be a good opportunity for those of us less experience riders to learn how to ride singles.

    I’m a possibility for this and would be happy to sweep :)

    It depends on how work pans out, I’ve been super busy since I got back from hols and if everything goes to plan that weekend should be free (especially Sunday, it’s the Bosses 50th, eldest Daughters 25th and Mothers Day :huh: )

    Adam.

    Hey Adam
    Are you saying that Sunday would be better for you??
    I don’t think anything is set in concrete yet

    Probably a good day not to be home :whistle:

    However it would not be possible for me to return home if I missed it :pinch:

    Yep, count me in please :cheer:

    Welcome aboard Rach
    I have removed the ? from beside your name

    This will be a bit of a mystery tour as I would like to take Davis and Stu up Amazon (grade 5) and hopefully get Adam to lead the others to the top via open track. We could perhaps return through Bangalow if everyone is moving along OK.

    Will PM starting place and times to all that are keen
    Is a 9:00am kick off too early? I realise some of you will be travelling some distance.
    Cheers

    oh Murph you’re so lovely ;)

    Boys you CANT do sunday (mothers day) come on be home for your mums / wives.

    I think a few guys on here (from the mountains) have ridden with my +1 (Troy Davis). Pretty sure Chris has ridden with him. Would have been few years ago.

    Can’t wait to see him try and tackle some of your hills.

    Murph,

    I would like to come along on the ride as well if you would have me.
    Happy to do sweep if Adam can not make it,
    and keen to have another crack at Amazon :woohoo:

    Cheers
    Stu.

    Welcome Stu, as always, mate.
    Ready to ride by 9:00am sounds like a goer

    Yet to send PM’s out providing our starting point

    Would love to have another local rider along to split the group when the harder trails come along.
    Never the less I’m sure we will work something out.

    Sorry OG, but I don’t think you will get to see any of the harder grade hills/trails as just getting to them may be a bit out of your comfort zone. :(

    Cheers
    Murph

    P.S. Please remind me on the day that this is suppose to be a grade 2-3 ride with hopefully a few harder sections thrown in for those that are keen. 👿 :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Oh don’t worry when I start yelling ‘wtf Roy!!!’ you’ll know the track is getting a bit hard 😆

    Don’t worry about splitting the group. I’m the only one that can’t do gr 4-5. Rach is crazy she’ll have a crack at it :whistle: :laugh:

    I’ll just cruise along until it gets too hard and take a break where I stop. Just make sure you come BACK for me !!

    I’ve been told I’m no longer a ‘soil sampler’ as I don’t drop the bike as much. No my name has changed to ‘crash bandicoot’ bc I get through the hard stuff only to stack it on the easy track :whistle: :pinch:

    Knocked myself clean out last weekend riding with Davis. Easy corner that we had already ridden too! Wrapped my neck around a tree :blink: :blink: :huh: NO IDEA how I managed it but I have the bruises under my chin to prove that I did it. PLUS the weekend bf THAT whiskey and I had a run in on a hill that resulted in me sliding up the hill under the bike! Well it was either that or I was going to take her out .She decided half way up the hill to change to the line I was riding but didn’t realize I was going as fast as I was so it was either crash into her or lock up the brakes and slide.

    Someone seriously needs to start following me with a gopro…..youtube here I come :laugh: :laugh:

    Oldgirl,

    You won’t be the only one not doing G5’s :whistle: :pinch:

    And I can accommodate you with the Gopro footage on Youtube :P :laugh: :laugh:

    Adam.

    PS If I don’t make it Stuart has a Gopro too ;)

    Rach has seen Murph’s ride reports and can assure you she is not that crazy!! .:unsure: .. I live happily on lower side of the grading scale ;)
