Are you going for a ride this weekend? Great! The Maiala Rainforest Teahouse & Restaurant combined with Queensland Transport and TeamMoto Motorcycles are having a rider survivor event this Sunday 14th September.

You will have the chance to win up to $1,000 worth of riding gear, an Advanced road craft course voucher worth $255 and a Shoei XR1000 Helmet on the day. Not only that the ride up Mount Glorious is a great ride, you can have a fantastic breakfast and a great ride back out over Mount Nebo and Mount Mee. What a perfect day!

if anyone is keen too i'm happy to organise a ride out of this. Though the plod will be out in waves on this day.

any way of making a weekly, fortnightly or monthly ride up the mt? i wont be able to come out till one of my bikes is back up n running but yeah. i reckon would be ace for a ASF group ride every so often so that way all us young fellas n new guys could meet the rest of ya. good way to get to know people n good excuse(not that we really need one) to go for a days ride n even stop for a beer on the the way back.


cheers.

Russ they can only knock off the lead bike. If the rest of you make right pains of yourselves in slowing them down while they're trying to get round you it will be ok.

Wait, on second thoughts there, you're right. Sounds good in theory, but...

I had a vehicle inspection on the way to the Cafe,
licence check, breathaliser etc.

Was sent on my way. Had a coffee and sandwich and headed
back home 20 minutes later, thinking, ha ha, im safe and
I know he's there.

Got stopped by the SAME COP !
Licence check, vehicle inspection, breathaliser AGAIN !
When I asked if he remembered me, he growled...
"Are you refusing to co-operate Sir?"

I've seen tickets handed out recently up there for short rear guards,
Loud pipes, and even "non-folding" aftermarket rear-sets.

Unless I know im legal and its a group ride with mates i avoid the place.

Cool, maybe we could alternate south and north so it's not biased to one area. I don't know north very well so anyone got any suggestions? Preferably not somewhere that the coppers have a permanent stake out on.

We do rides almost every weekend.

North is normaly ending somewhere like Malaney,
Kenilworth, Somerset Dam or The Farmers Arms Pub at Hampton.

South we go out through Boohna, Warwick, Beachmont,
AdvanceTown, etc.

We are off in half an hour to head down to Queen Mary Fall's
at Kilarney for breakfast.(Bris/Beaudesert/Boonha/back roads)

Bearded Dragon or the new "Pommie Pub" are good.
Nice ride from either Brissy or Gold Coast.
