Weather is looking good for tomorrow, things are so dry out there I doubt todays rain will have much affect on the track

From the MR Motorcycles page "Great day to be marking Glen Murray Trail Ride for Sunday, marked out a 40km main loop today that has a 25km shorter loop in it plus a 4 km family loop and the pee wee track.. See u all on Sunday." so those learning (Or really unfit) the 25 K loop is an easy out if you think the 40K loop is too much

around 30 ml of rain on saturday made it interesting going for the first lap, but it was a great loop, but of everything in it,

yup a good mix of open hard out and tighter stuff with the odd slippery patch thrown in, I was helping on the Family loop in the morning so the main loop had F/all bikes on it by the time I hit it and what mud was there wasn't to deep, no issues getting through

850 Bikes, The incorrect weather forecast from some outfits put some off but it was a cracker day as per the pic's

A couple of pics from the day

i went around the family loop with my 7 year old neice and her friend, thats a great family loop they have at that ride, a little bit of mud to have some fun in,

Yup it was good, most kids did OK, I picked a few up and helped some that had got separated from Family but mostly impressed with the lack of hoons this time. I would loved to have done that at pace too as there was some nice places to jump etc :P

Looks like I missed a another great Mr Motorcycles trail ride, need to get my shit sorted, haven't done any riding, road or off road, both bikes just gathering dust.
