Parklands Radar hill ride report. 27/12/2020
Great to see so many riders roll in to joining the post Xmas ride, lots of Present Bling on display from Gloves, Jerseys, socks etc…. and who know jocks??
QR Covid compliance sign in went smoothly to assist in keeping the population safer.
Weather was moderately cool considering it was mid-summer.
The faster group went into anticlockwise mode, heading for the hills quicker than the sweat running down their faces, various obstacles encountered including a behemoth fallen tree needing a 1+m lift over, group effort.. individualism kicked in several splinter groups formed to include downhill Xmas Gravity. The odd Shower helped cool the core, decrease grip & fancy sideways manoeuvres ensued with fear in the rocky sections. Finishing on tracks Ccc, Tazar, Blue tongue followed by a warm down on Lush. Big effort.. hopefully we didn’t leave to many out in the wilderness.
Moderate paced and Rookie riders balanced the rotation of the global axis (Parklands) by heading clockwise, checking out all the old favourite tracks, showing newer riders the hidden wonders of these great tracks forged by our Bushranger pioneers. Determined riding from newer riders.
Last weeks trail care works were greatly appreciated by riders with tree clearing, signage post work, skills area tidy, drainage works in Lush…. Thanks to all who attended 😊
Coffee Beans and a variety of refuelling merchandise mixed with post ride comradery in Bli Bli at Espresso Bar Café for post ride theatre.. including a personalised Jumbo Jet…..
Next week community ride is at wooroi Tewantin…Sunday 3/1/2021
