WALWA RIDE AUGUST 2011

Luck was on our side this weekend with some great weather predicted for both days which was far better than what we had been having previous to this. We had 9 bikes in the group which set off from Mooroopna and headed for our first stop at Yarrawonga where we picked up 2 more riders and after a short coffee break we headed for Barnawartha for lunch. This is where the ride really starts to become what most riders look for with rolling corners and great views off a very full Hume Wier on one side and the greens hills on the other. After a fuel stop at Tallangatta we had the 30k run to Koetong Hotel where we picked up 2 more riders and did the final run to the Walwa Hotel where we stayed the night. It was good to kick back and relax with a few beers and listen to chat about the days ride. The next day was more of the same with the added trip over the Granya Gap and on for lunch at Yackandandah which was a memorable one, pie and chips? more like rock cake and fries. It was good to see 3 new riders on this trip, all commented on what a great ride it is and one even said " if anyone doesn't like that ride they should sell their bike, buy a scooter and ride around town."
