The route is Brendale, Mt Mee, Woodford, Kilcoy, Toogoolawah, Mt Glorious... and home.

This event is capped at 30 people. Numbers also include any pillion riders so please let us know if you are intending to carry a pillion.

All Riders are welcome but this ride is primarily for confident learners and new riders. The ride will be approximately 200 km's round trip.

For those who've never experienced the lunches at Toogoolawah Hotel... my best advice is to miss out your breakfast! You won't feel hungry in the afternoon!

We meet at the Shell garage at Brendale at 8.30 am (map below), with stands up at 9.00 am. We'll need some experienced riders to help with any learners or new riders that want to join us. You are allowed to invite one additional rider.

**If you are a person who has to ride hard and fast then this ride is not for you. You'll need a high level of patience... we ride at a nice steady pace suitable for learners and novice riders.**

For riders who have held their RE open licence for more than a year, it would help greatly if you are willing to accompany any learner riders in your area to the meet point and back home after the ride. Thanks to all that volunteer for this task.

If the weather is bad the ride will be postponed to another day...

Please note that some roads can be a bit bumpy in places, and all of the mountains can be quite a workout with sharp corners, please ride safely and at your own pace, we will wait for you no matter what!

Corner markers will be required. Generally the corner marker will be the rider behind the leader...if you don't want to corner mark, please don't be in the first 4 or so riders. If you're a learner, another qualified rider must stop with you. If you are a corner marker, please don't leave the corner until the TEC gets to you, no matter how long it takes. No-one gets left behind!

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY AT ALL TIMES...ride to suit your ability...ride in staggered formation when you're around other bikes when safe to do so. Keep up if you can but DON'T UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ride faster or harder than you're comfortable with... if you fall back, that's fine and dandy...you won't be left behind just stay on the road you're on and make logical decisions...someone or the whole group will wait for you at the next turning point or change of direction... ALWAYS ask the ride leader where they are planning to stop for the next break...at least you then have some idea of where you can head to if you do get separated...
