    Hi all
    The ride is still on Weather permitting. I was up at Lowanna today and the tracks are ok, if needed due to rain there is a couple of tracks we can skip but we need at least 2-3 days of sun in the lead up to the ride or we won’t get up onto the plateau. If it is too wet i have another spot that is about 40 mins south and is more suitable if it’s wet. Anyway, hopefully it won’t be a problem as only showers are forecast. I will check the track on Friday and let everyone know what is going on.

    Just confirming the ride list;
    Ev & two others
    Aaron
    NickJ
    Nige77
    Gary530
    STM
    BiggerAl
    Corey8
    RiderX??

    Let us know if there anyone else is keen. This will be a top ride.

    Confirming details;
    Meet at 7.30am at Nth Bello cemetery, turn right at the post office and cross Lavenders Bridge go straight through the round about until you get to the cemetery which is on the left at the end of the street. The ride is 9-10 hours with a fuel and lunch stop at Lowanna. The trip up is 100kms (but only 50kms on the way back) and i will have about 12 litres but if you have a 1 litre jerry can bring it with you.

    Email or call me if you have any questions. Mobile – 0413 258 184.

    PS, I wouldn’t do this ride without some armour and about 65% left on the tyres (especially if it’s wet!).

    Cheers, Ev

    We did Coffs – Bellingen – Taylors Arm – Stuarts Point yesterday & there were plenty of one way only trails North & south of Bellingen. Some of them would take a lot of good weather to be able to ride them reverse

    Hi guys

    Just letting you know there are plenty of trails still ridable. Bellingen will be fine it is the Crossmaglen mountain that will stop us but i will check it Friday and let all know what the go is.

    Our option b is 40mins south of Bello and i was riding there today and it was bone dry. Even if it rains all week or on the day this will be fine to ride and is an awesome ride anyway.

    PS Gary530 & Nige77 are on the list.

    Ev
