SUMMARY:December Social Ride - Poverty Gully
DESCRIPTION:Our last social ride of the year will be an exploration of the Poverty Gully region\, including some of the historic water races. This area provides a good sample of classic Castlemaine singletrack\, along with some superb relics of the gold rush era.Meeting at the Theatre Royal at 9am.Depending on numbers and experience of riders we may be able to break the group into two to cater for a slower paced group.Either way you can expect a ride of 20 plus kms over some classic singletrack in varied terrain\, with a duration of around two and a half hours. We have a no-drop policy\, no one will be left behind.A Rocky Riders (or other AusCycling) membership is recommended so you are covered by insurance while riding. Riders without an Auscycling membership\, do so at their own discretion. If you are not in a position to sign up for a full membership the AusCycling 4 Week Free Trial could be an alternative option to cover you or you can take out a Auscycling Lifestyle Membership for the month for $9.00.In order for us to manage riders to ride leaders ratios please purchase a free ticket.If you have any questions regarding the ride get in touch via info(at)rockyriders.com

SUMMARY:October Social Ride - Walmer Forest
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly social ride will be held on Saturday 26 October to precede our Club AGM and will feature the best bits of the Baco trails.  The ride will commence at 2pm. \nThe layout of the Baco trails should enable us to cater for both beginner and intermediate level riders.  The focus will be on more flowy terrain\, with fewer technical sections. We will ride for around two hours so a reasonable level of fitness will be required. \nThe ride will commence at 2pm at the Walmer Forest Trailhead. There is plenty of parking\, toilets and barbecues on site. The Annual General Meeting will be conducted at the conclusion of the ride at 4pm. Refreshments will be provided for those attending the AGM.\nMap reference (type into Google Maps): X56W+GF\, Muckleford VIC 3451 \nAll riders must be self-sufficient with food\, water and spares.  A well maintained/working mountain bike and helmet which meets Australian standards are required. \nIn order for us to manage riders to ride leader ratios please register through the AusCycling events portal. \nPlease note: AusCycling membership is REQUIRED to cover you for insurance.  AusCycling has 4 week free trial memberships and monthly lifestyle memberships as options.  Anyone coming to social rides without active membership will have to sign up on the day to one of the AusCycling membership options described above (or full membership) https://rockyriders.com/membership/
