Melbourne cup day turned to be a great day for trail riding, in perfect 22 degree sunshine 9 of us meet at Glenburn road house and, after a chat and some breakfast we moved on to Two Hills road car park.
Just after 9 we were under way with some easy open tracks to warm up. Most of these tracks had seasonally closed since June and had been reopened only days before our ride they were extremely dusty. So I decided to head over towards Murrindindi area hoping for damper conditions over there.
With the group moving along way quicker than I expected (with Nathan and Peter behind me there would be no slacking off) we arrived at Murrindindi camp area in no time, then found our way to some neat little tracks off Falls road.
From here jumped around the area with what seemed like endless intersections and putting corner men on them. No one complained
So with no hold ups, mechanical issues or flat tyres, very rare on amtra rides. We continued on and finished the day back at the car park at 1.30pm with 100km done and still fuel in the tank. Most importantly there no injuries and no one got lost.
Thanks guys for making this ride enjoyable and FAST for me and attending at such short notice on a public holiday.
A big thank you to Ian for your tailman duties all days.
