Hi all.
Just wanting to now get the word out there that "Day of Singletrack'in 2005" is officially launched today.


This is an end of year Social MTB Event!!!
Last years ride was so successful that this year it will be stepped up another gear.

Check out its website. www.dayofsingletrackin.com

**************************************

What?: This a social Mountain Bike (MTB) ride designed to give riders a change of atmosphere (Not Racing or a Big Enduro event) and ride in THE event of the year.

Last year attracted crowds of +100 in its first year, and this year the ride will be stepped up another level to bring you the very best an event can give you!
Incorporated will be a guided tour around the Commonwealth Games MTB track, a fantastic BBQ with drinks, Big prizes, A rider pack including a magazine dedicated to the day, outlining events, who’s who, 2006 product tests and reviews, and a heap of fantastic product.

The ride will feature a number of Australia’s finest riders from very successful backgrounds as well as those who may just see MTB cycling as a fun activity. Everyone is here for one reason:
“To Celebrate the use of Australias premiere MTB venue and just have a fantastic social day”. Call it your end of year MTB community Christmas party. It will all be an event to really remember.

Riders will be in groups of 25 of similar ability and led by a dedicated leader who will guide that group for the duration of the day.

James,
Sounds good. Please put what state it's in Title or first lines of the post. Reading between the lines I assume it's Vic.

It's frustrating when you read something that sounds great, but you have no idea where it is!

1 day to go...

well it's the day after. i'm typing with my left hand due to my incidence with a tree yesterday and the resulting busted ac joint. for the time i did ride though the event was excellent and up untill that sun shower the bbq was nothing but good times.

so who went, any stories to tell. oh, and if you notice a tree missing on the trail that starts to the right from hallam north carpark it wasn't me ;) .

huge thanks to james and all the other volunteers for the great event. i didn't reallise the dedication until the day, james didn't even ride himself. personal thanks to the maebus' and sleeman's for getting me, my car and all my gear home.

and finally a get well soon to ross (and his two halves of helmet) after the high speed water bar crash.

Grover

ended up being about 125 riders i think. about 6 groups went off. a brisk ride to get to lysterfield from belgrave in order to cross wellington road between 10 and 10.30 so as to make us of the police road block. safest crossing ever.

did trails in lysterfield for 2-2.5 hours (i only did about an hour due to stack as of acouple of posts up). then bbq, competitions and lots of prizes. the rain did come down putting a slightly early finish to the event but still good fun.

Day Of Singletrack'in 2005 really went off this year.

Thanks to all that participated and thanks to all those who volunteered their time heres look’in at you Grover, Graham, The Sleeman family, Rob Eva, and all the ride leaders.

I hope the ride really was stepped up another level this year. Lunch was great, and hey a little rain hurt no-one.
