    Mr Motorcycles trail ride series round 1: Glen Murray Sunday 28 Nov

    Been flat out at work this morning... Ogranising what time we're heading to Glen Murray next Sunday.

    I'm sure all of you on here are aware of how they work - I've attached the flyer as I downloaded it earlier this morning.

    Sign on from 8:45am, track open from 9:45 - 14:45.

    Who else is heading down? Weather forecast is looking hot and sunny so I hope I haven't jinxed it.

    I'm thinking about it, I've had enough of crashing into pine trees so some open space would make a bit of a change.

    Put me down as a probable.

    I hope there's no swamp... Last year Glen Murray was my first ever ride, mates went up the hill and I tackled the mud bog.

    This year Glen Murray will be my first ride since breaking my foot 10 weeks ago. I hope my shiny new Tech 7s don't get dirty

    Looking forward to it, first ride on new bike at Berm Buster, now tweaked the suspension so the RMZ is going rock.

    Just got back from marking the loop,.

    Main Loops is approx 32km, it is a pretty cool loop, it is quite dry out there so it will be a bit dusty,

    new for this year is a approx 5km family/kids loop, this is for kids and learners who are to big for the mini loop, who need a bit more of a challange, but 32km is a bit to far,

    you will be kicked off it if you are to fast and are carving up people, this has its own start and finish and does not use any part of the main loop, this is something we are trying for the 1st time this year,

    Any mud bogs on the main loop? Last year there was the small loop which did join onto the main loop - was good to go around to warm up & in my case get some confidence before attempting the main loop. Will similar be there this year or has that gone & replaced with the 5km family/kids loop you mention?

    not really, a couple of small holes, but it is pretty dry out there, nothing to hard in the main loop and it is a bit shorter than it has been in previous years.

    the small loop was not ment for people to warm up on it was ment for poeplet that were not confident on the main loop, that is why we have completly seperated it this year, also we had some issues with smaller kids getting knocked around by people on the start and finish of the main loop, it just did not work like we ment it to, but we learn, and go on and try new stuff like we are this weekend,
