At this stage there is no Vicroads exemption for recreg bikes for use on road. However, most of the course is ok for recreg. There are two very short road sections which are part of the course but would not present any difficulties to be negotiated off the bike.

The weathers looking good for the weekend! Be a top ride in a special area - there's so much variety. Entry on the day is fine but please print out the entry form, complete it and have the correct entry fee - change will be limited! Don't forget your licence. It just helps keep things moving at sign-in which everyone appreciates.

Yep, we've had some nice rain around here so conditions should be perfect.

A few people have pre-entered, and the majority manufacturer thus far is... Kawasaki.

We hope to see as many riders as possible on Sunday.

Start/finish area is on Recreation Reserve Road and will be sign posted early Sunday morning. If travelling from Melbourne, take the Western Freeway (M8) towards Ballarat, and then Greendale-Trentham Road (C318) towards Blackwood. Once you reach Blackwood, turn left onto Simmons Creek Road, and then right onto Recreation Reserve Road.

The course itself will be approximately 25 kms total distance, with riding on Sunday only.

Tex
