We will display older bikes - looking forward to a great turn-out. We will be seeking radio coverage, Jess will also be promoting. A massive success last year, lets make this even bigger this year, a big effort with bikes appreciated.
Met at Ten06 Cafe Yorkeys Know at 10am, took off for a ride to Julatten Hotel for lunch - then back via Mt Molloy and via Kuranda or Gillies Range. A really good ride yesterday and the weather remained good as forecast and it was great to see a few who hadn’t been on a ride for a while, I didn’t count, but around 15 plus on the ride, a few turned around at the top of the Rex look-out, or at the Julatten Hotel as they had other commitments, but a good turn-out, ………….. for those like Tania and I who hadn’t been along the Coast Road since December, it was very telling of the damage back then, but also of the huge clean-up that Main Roads and others have completed, whilst we didn’t stop, it was great to see the Ellis Beach Café really busy and based on the traffic, Port Douglas must also have been busy, we had a good ride home back via Yungaburra and down the Gillies in reasonably light traffic given the end of the School Holidays
Mike will provide a BBQ from mid-day. Undercover parking available for bikes
Met McDonalds Gordonvale at 9.30am for coffee and discuss a short ride. Followed by a ride up to Yungaburra and then heading to Malanda for lunch. Due to the rather miserable weather not many members turned up but the few that did still enjoyed their ride and the catch up and lunch.
