SUNDAY RIDE BY GUNDY FOR APRIL 2011

With some concern about the weather we headed off at 10 am with 6 bikes and 10 people on them. The first stop was at a little coffee shop in Avenel, from there we road to Molesworth Hotel where although we had to wait some time for a meal it was worth the wait. We had been very lucky with the weather and had only found wet roads, apart from a small shower just out of Euroa, but things were getting cool when we made our final stop at the Toolamba Hotel. After the final roll of the dice the winner of the money was Dean, from that point we all made our way back home. Thanks to Gundy for leading so well on the day and thank you to those who came along . Bird

ENSAY RIDE 19th-20th MARCH 2011

This was very much a members ride with not one guest coming along which was a big pity because it is such a good ride. We went in a clockwise direction this time which meant coming down Mt Hotham instead of going up. Our route up the mountain was done via Mt Bogong and Falls Creek with a stop at the historical little tavern called "The Blue Duck Inn". The fall down, dropped my bike, tumblers group has 2 new members with Gundy having a lay down at the service station in front of a bus full of women bush walkers ( how embarrassing?) and Eric letting his big bike having a rest on it's side at the top of Mt Hotham, ( it must have been tired from the climb) both happened at very very low speed so pleased to say " no riders were injured during these performances" only dented prides and a few scratches to the machines ( which can be oh so annoying). This ride has wonderful roads and scenery with a comfy hotel at the end and great company to spend it with.... can't do better than that. Bird

SUNDAY RIDE MARCH 6th to FLOWERDALE

Well done Grover on an interesting ride. It took in some roads I have never been along before and one I will avoid always in the future. We stopped at a couple of places that were very impressive but I think the one at Seymour was the most pleasant ... very relaxing. Thank you to Grover for his efforts and thank you to the riders who came along. Bird

PORT ALBERT JAN 22---23 2011

Port Albert Hotel is a long way away but "what a ride". Along this trek there is all the kinds of riding anyone could want, and we had it all. We were warm , hot, cold, wet, tired, amazed by the views, stunned by the beauty, thrilled by corners, held in suspense by some riders off the road adventures, amused by the tumbling antics of those who did fall off, we were lost, then we were found, we were checked by the law but most of all we had fun and a very memorable trip. This was the most amount of riders that we have had on a ride ( 20) and the longest ride we have done but also one of the most successful. A big thank you to those who helped. ......BIRD
