HUNTER GATHERERS RIDE.
OCTOBER 2008
Fri 24th/Sat25th/Sun26th.
Simply tell your boss you're taking a sickie on the Friday!
There are no school holidays over this weekend.
Friday - the ride to the venue, plus evening meet and greet.
Saturday - circuit run, under 300km. then dinner.
Sunday - trek home.
Anyone is free to make it a trip of as many days as they like.
Riders are invited from the groups, listed alphabetically:
Hunter Scooter Riders (Newcastle)
Maxitag Scooter Tourers (Bris)
Scooteroo (Bris)
Scooter Style (Noosa)
Interest is also expected from other groups.
They will be added to the list as soon as there is simply one member
voicing a desire to attend.
If you do not ride with any group, you're very welcome to this gathering.
Because of distances involved, larger scooters will be the practical
way to go.
This long weekend run will be a happening made up of attendees
who have decided of their own free will and at their own risk to
participate in a strictly social outing.
The ride is not owned by any group or individual.
The venue has yet to be decided.
It will be half way between Newcastle and Brisbane,
either Bellingen on the coast (about 400km),
or Armidale/Uralla on the New England Tableland (about 500km).
Both have a nice circuit under 300km for a Saturday ride.
A poll might be the go to make the venue decision.
Riders from all the above groups have attended long weekend rides to
Port Macquarie and/or Bellingen.
We all had a ball - correct me if I'm wrong.
So if you are feeling hesitant about registering interest, we have
been there done that.
Heaps more to follow.
Go to www.maxitag.org and click on "Hunter Gatherers Ride" for starters.
Who's interested? and let's hear your comments.
It won't need much organising, but if any Scooteroos would like to
help, please put your hand up.
