OK this weekend’s ride installment will be MT LINDESAY TO URBENVILLE and return……
ok ride will consist of a little tar at the start at the very most maybe ten klms,reason being haven’t been in the first section of forests since the big storms at new years and don’t know how many trees are down,there would have been hundreds whether it has been cleaned i doubt it……so will apologize now if there is a tar section and not again,because it is not really in my nature…..
ok from there will be onto the telecom track through the rollercoaster back onto the telecom track to the tick fence trail drop down onto north yabbra for a short stint then through stony gully onto the csr trail back onto north yabbra before dropping into the gmt trail for the run to the rest area…quick squirt down south yabbra drop down into tooloom falls then onto urbenville……light refreshments and fuel will be taken on board then return along a similar route but will be keeping it down to a steady pace on return via mainly the main trails unless we are all up for a bit more snot…….
would like to tell you how many klms but have always removed my speedo’s and never had a gps so have no idea……
however i would say you will need to be a rider able to keep at least a grade 3.5 to 4 level for the day…..
would also like to keep ride to a maximum 6 riders so 4 spots left
p.s should have mentioned there will be no track cleaning on the day this is a ride only….

Should be able to make this one, will let you know 100% later in the week, should be picking up new bike trailer this week also, if it goes pear shaped, may need a lift.KTM01
August 3, 2009 at 10:22 am #146770You probably already know this Robo, but eastern end of Unumgar is quite passable ATM, starting from the Concrete culvert turnoff 2ks down the kyogle road, rode out of there the other day. Craig and I did some clearing there a few months back as well.
Tracks are getting overgrown, some F/trails are now flowing S/T.

bruce i actually took ktm01 and the lads round a little of the culvert area and have to agree i am impressed we did have to make a log passable in one track….
i have been round the whole lot by myself on a couple of other rides lately bit of carnage about but all good for riding….
now my question for ya bruce,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, on the northern side of summerland way…. like the whole corner section between mt lindesay hwy and the old highway and back to summerland way… that’s where i am looking at going some where though from mt lindesay to diary flats anything i should know about haven’t been in there for over twelve months……August 3, 2009 at 10:52 am #146776Can’t say for sure, apparently the rabbit fence wasn’t too bad according to some Grevillia local riders and we did come across a QLD group on mostly KTMs a while back that had ridden from Edinburough through to Unumgar and over to Tooloom, so it must be passable, these lads where fairly hardcore as well.
See how my Clutch housing repairs goes this week, might see ya there eh?

Picked up new bike trailer today, and have a pass out, so I am all good to go.
Was riding around that mount lindesay area at christmas and there was a few trees down, havent been in that area since, I guess we will see on the day, it will only be that first hour or so.KTM01
August 4, 2009 at 10:09 am #146957i believe every ride needs a little explore at least……
