Pounce lead a top loop of well over one hundred k's of fantastic trails. A well deserved ROTD award.

Adrian clicked is bike into neutral at the top of a rather sharp incline and ended up rolling down the hill backwards for about 4 meters and landing on his arse. That was god enough for the SOTD award today buddy.


I thought after today's ride, it is worth a timely reminder of the following -

Only licensed bikes and riders permitted on official CQ rides unless on private property or otherwise stated.

While travelling along transport sections, keep the front wheel down, the back wheel turning the same speed as the front wheel, ride to the left and ride a at sensible speed.

When entering or leaving main roads (gravel or bitumen) refrain from spinning the wheel and throwing gravel all over the place. Locals and authorities see this and it alerts them to dirt bikes in the area.

No riding of the bike around the parking area before we take off. Not only does it draw attention to us it is downright dangerous. Imagine a dozen bikes riding in all different directions, popping wheelies and tearing up the gravel. Sounds like a recipe for an accident.

I know it sounds like winging but if we use our noodles we will be able to ride in these areas for a long time to come. You can ride hard and fast once you are out on the trails!!!!!!
