Ride to Mirboo Nth

Kate - editing for Bugger

 Added for Bugger ( note - must find out why he cant edit his posts )

Ok, becouse the Lacola camp out ride has been Caned or put off until later in the year,, we still have the date booked for a ride, So where going to go half way up the same way and just do a Gippsland ride on the sunday, nice smooth roads with some great twisties ,,,Poowong, Kurumburra, leongather, merboo North for lunch at the pub.

It will be a cruise ride,, unless you want to risk a few points.

Remmeber the week after is the All British rally, with is a Big weekend,, Camp out sytle,,, I'll be posting a ride for that as it gets closer.

Meeting point Like last time for 8.45am leave at 9.00am and meet you guys at Woori yallock by 10.00am.

Meet at Tyrepower, Warburton Hwy  Woori Yallock 9:30am Ride start time 10:15 am sharp. Petrol available at meeting point.

See you there

This sounds great. I'll ask

This sounds great. I'll ask some others and get back to you asap , but I can see no reasons why I will not be going. If the westies want to get an early start , they are welcome to stay here on the friday night for an early , but not 'as early' start to the meet point . Might even make you all breakfast . Damn I have to get the formatting buttons back up. Cant centre , cant smiley ....

By Public Demand Theres A Date Change 4th& 5th Aprill

Sorry Jaz, This Is not a happy moment and Is not intended to up set your ride nor to high Jack your ride. There has been enough feed back from people willing to attend the Lacola Weekend the weekend after the 28th& 29th of March on the 4th & 5th of aprill,, This is unintentional and I hope you will not take offence. I'm sorry about this date change and know you have the ride for the hills ride on the same date. I hope it goes well. My apolagys. Bugger DATE CHANGE FOR THE LACOLA CAMPOUT/RIDE IS 4&5 OF APRILL

Sticking together

This event is about all of us sticking together,, its ower first overnighther,,, yes there has been a bit of turmoile lately in forums but as a group we all have a bond with each other, we all take the risk of riding motorcycles. We have all made great friends. This ride /campout is about continuing ower group. Some how on rides we just all seem to click ,,, its not always that way on forums,, we all respect each other opionons on the day and mostly the forums disagreements are forgotten, or put aside to make the ride enjoyable. We enjoy each others company in a nut shell. We have something here,,, we love to ride with eachother we respect and know how each other moves on the road and look after each other. Its very importiant we keep this thing going (whatever owe club is called,,, It really doesnt matter) This is why I would like to see a gathering of all,that have riden with us in the last few years and would want to see you all show up to the Lacola Camp out,, with that, I had asked Kate to make this ride public,, which means its open to be copied to other forums and hope you all plan around getting to this ride. I feel I have robbed jez of his ride in the hills for this one,, But on that note, I think hope he understand the importance of the bonding sestion this will produce over the long term of keeping this ride group going. It will be the last time( I hope the dates will clash) Jez did a great job in the bush fire fundriser ride,, I'm hoping he will forgive me for the ride in the hills clash and the ballarat boys show up on the Lacola Campout Run. Well we can only wish, hope to see all you guy & girls there. Doent matter where we Chat, as long as we still chating and stick together for rides. Thats where its at. Cheers Bugger Rat.

Sorry BuggsI have spent

Sorry Buggs I have spent approx $70 and just as many hours promoting the ride for the hills in the ballarat area. I have also been liasing betweem different ride groups to head there in a column. so I will be attending that. Jez

Hi Ya Bugger. I've got a

Hi Ya Bugger. I've got a suggestion for you. Since this rides been changed already , and given that the ride you say is Jez's ride is in fact a feeder run into a Bushfire Relief ride which every group in Victoria is attending - a huge event , and one which we should support , ; and given that the VJMC is on the day before , I am going to ask , pretty please with sugar and spice on top , if you'll change this again.

My suggestion is this . Open the Calender via the link up top but right mouse click on the link and choose open link in new window. In the calendar next to the month click one of those arrows and you'll see April. You can then see easily which days are free of booked rides . For instance , the w/e following and the w/e after that are both free. 

I kinow I've done this changing of dates foor you and I should have pointed this out before this , but I was confused with the relief ride and the greendale run . I kinow you dont like this chopping and changing and that theres sms involved , but , the worst date we could have for the groups meet , is this date .

 

Please , pretty please , could you change it again to one of the two w/e following.

Yeah Ok

Yeah ok, the weekend after that is Easter weekend, Its a good time to be off the road and not go anywhere, Accom's going to be hard to get,,, at lacola,, I do agree with you this weekend is not good As it does interfer with Jez's Ride in the hills Ride and yes lets try for the weekend of 18th and the 19th of aprill.

Please can we make this a finial date.

Please can we have no one Pming me or texting me to change the date agian becouse they cant make it on that date, becouse they have a wedding on, a birthday party, or my wifes having kittens that weekend.

 

Can you do the changes to the datesk8, I'll send out some new SmS tonight, I'v been thinking of it all day, Its not going to work on the 4th & 5th of aprill.

It would be nice to see a few, commitments made to be there.

 

Cheers bugger

Good onya Bugger. Okay , we have the w/e marked in the calendar . Who knows . This might turn into that annual rally we once talked about in another place and another time.

Mirboo North

That's a top spot to ride, the sweepers between Thorpedale and Mirboo North might have been built by a motorcyclist.  Definitely the Mirboo North pub for lunch, good food good prices car and bike memorabillia on the walls and they have a frog in the table too!

yummmm. Those sweepers are

yummmm. Those sweepers are sweet , lunch at the pub , and then the road back from leongatha is also a favourite ride , or we could cut off that road and head to the pub at - cant remember it , the place that has rodeos all the time not far from cranbourne. That area is littered with great roads , though admittedly the surfaces on some are starting to break up.

edit- Lang Lang was the place.

Another perfection day

Another perfection day with 15 bikes showing up in the course of the day,,,, a great turn out thanks to Knuckle and a few mates for meeting us half way,,,,, boy those guys know how to ride,.

Some of the best twistys in the east were had, lunch was fantastice, top hamburgers.

Thanks also to speed xxx, Bdt100, Filthy, stealth, tomcat, K8, Bottle & son, Deno, knuckle and friends,,,,,,, it was a top ride, see most of you at the All british rally next week.

 

Great Day Thanks to all

Certainly was a good day. For a moment there I thought I was it but then Filthy turned up and we admired our sprints glistening despite their unwashed state. A coffee and a hot Chocolate , the Tomcat and seconds later the meetpoint filled with the roar of bikes arriving.

Great Day , Great roads , Great company. Great also to see Speed and Bdt and Knuckle again. Its been too long, and its always good to ride with those boys.

*sigh*

Looks like you had a great day everyone..! I'm feeling rather jealous right now...

 

 

you would have loved this

you would have loved this one Rapunzel. The front group after we left Willow Grove were absolutely belting along, probably a touch to fast really. We hit the thorpedale twists and sweepers at what might be considered excessive speed ans at one point there were 6 of us same distance apart just flowing through those roads like we were attached , and then , from nowhere , A harley rider passed us all as if we were standing still . I spoke to him later and he had a superglide like no other , totally modded out with a clearance most sportsbikes would love.

Could not believe it. When you get passed at 80kmh *edited because i just realised this thread is public and besides , as you know , we never speed - its like totally irresponsible * , on a sweep , and your like concentrating like your life depends on it , and you get passed by a harley , well, just goes to show I guess .
