Ride For The Hills

just so it not lost

 

Thats cool . Cant get lost , 'cause its in the Upcoming events list on the right. 41 days and counting. I'll make it a sticky and promote it to the front page soon.

Just incase you're interested. I just bought a patch which goes to the bushfire appeal from a mob at www.thepatchshop.com.au. All the money raised is going to the appeal. By the way, I hope all you in fire risk area's have a trouble free day tomorrow. 

Cheers 

Thanks for the link Blackdeath. Thanks for the wish of a trouble free day. Not alone there ...

So Jez. Whats the go here with this one. The map of feeder rides is in and around the city and burbs , so are we all going to gather at one of them and ride as a group ?

I was thinking that we could meet @ the the Westgate Servo inbound about 9.30 and leave from there.

sounds good to me .

I think we should support this one and turn out on mass. Westgate servo inbound,,, Is the servo on the other side of the free way,you can get to it from todd road by going under the the westgate bridge.

Myself will attend this ride for sure wont miss this one cheers snowman out

Ride safe everyone !!!!!!!!!

Sadly for me I'm out of this ride , or any riding at all this w/e. Just have not got any money at all to spare till the 15th. Its been a biatch of a month on the financial front....

Sorry Jez, I'm out for this one,, I'v got a broken Car, Starter motors died.

Spent today running around looking for one, which I will now have to work on the car tommorow.

Have fun tommorow, hope its a good one.

I got someone to look after my kids, so I'll be there at the servo....

There was a good turnout from the Ballarat area approx 30 bikes. Met at the pheonix building in armstrong st and picked up a couple more from bigw carpark. Headed to the Todd rd servo topped off the tank and met up with some of the Ratbags. from there on to peir st.
At peir st there was approx 3000 bikes in front and just as many behind. The ride for the hills itself took approx 2.5 hrs and getting to the end was a welcome stretch of the legs. It was good to see Helen and Fred again.  
On the ride home there was a bit of confusion with George going missing and then a couple of others taking an alternitive route.
All in all Top Day Good Company and Great Cause.
hope everyone got home safe albeit a bit wet
Jez

 Good onya Jez , and thanks for the report . Been thinking of you guys all day. Glad to hear your all home safe and sound . Hope the ride went well for the organisers . Thank you to all who rode in it supporting a fine cause. I personally know people who will benifit from the ongoing efforts and there would have been a lot of businesses who would have loved the traffic. Three cheers for the Bike Community , and of course  hugs for the people we know here who rode. 15th till my bike is registered again and I can get back out . I did spend today though with people who lost a lot during these fires and are onlynow really having the effects hit home. They think you are all wonderful. Thanks for the report back Jez. I appreciate it.
