Ride Meetings

Our Ride Calendar is put together by our members. When a ride meeting is called, everyone is welcome to attend. It is an enjoyable experience to host a ride.

Please note that extra ride information can be displayed using the link buttons for rides which require bookings, showing telephone numbers or extra information.  There is generally an email sent to all members on `the email list' each Wednesday. The information sent, may, in some cases overwrite information in this website. Please contact the ride leader for up to date information if you have any questions.

Please keep an eye on the calendar, as times and information may change. Check your weekly email and if in doubt, call the Ride Leader.

If you find any inaccuracies, please inform the webmaster for correction, and we hope to see you on  our rides.

Thursday Rides

Held on most Thursdays
weather permitting.

Rides leave from The Caltex Service Station, Princes Highway, Heathcote at 9.00 a.m.

Featuring short coffee rides or longer luncheon rides held on alternate weeks.

Meet for a Ride

When: Tuesdays, weekends and Public Holidays when there is no other planned day ride on the calendar.

These rides are to cater for all members who are unable to attend organised ride days.

Rides will start from the Caltex Heathcote at  9.00 a.m.

If you attend one of these rides the following guidelines are suggested:

· If 1 person only turns up then they can ride where they want to.

· If 2 to 5 turn up then they can decide where they want to go and for how long

· If 6 or more they can not only decide where they are going and how long but who should lead the ride and if a tail end Charlie is required.

Ride Protocol

Every rider should ride to their own capabilities and adhere to the road rules.

Rides start from different locations at different times – please check the ride details.

Start the ride with a full tank of fuel. Allow time for queues at the bowsers and cashier.

Assemble 15 minutes before departure time for ride briefing – there may be late changes.

************************************************

Corner marking may be used during a ride.
If the ride leader nominates a corner to be marked and the rider directly behind will stop near the corner if safe to do so, showing the other riders in the group which direction to take. The corner marker will rejoin the group once the Tail End Charlie approaches the corner. The ride leader should indicate their preference for corner marking at the start of the ride.
