Hi all,
This is late notice, I know. So sorry about that. Given my other riding options did not seem to turn out, I still want to fit in some fun riding early on Saturday morning.
Who's up for some Red Hill action? 
The ride can be quite technical, but most of the harder parts can be ridden around or walked. So don't be discouraged. It is all part of the fun.
Park on Lady Penrhyn drive. I will be in a blue Mazda.
Hopefully I will see you there! 
Who's in?
Peter R, evan, delicious, Little-Ditty, Caro, Andy Bloot, ScottM, Mr Lights (8 riders)

Would really like to come to this.. it's been ages since I was up there.
Have fun
What trails are you planning on riding?
I've just put my SPDs back on to do Terrey Hills!
Next time.
Dead keen, but I'm without wheels. If anyone is comming past Kent Street in the CBD can I get a ride?
If we end up with a group of fairly competant riders, then something on the more technical side would be good. We could do the standard loop, but incorporate the requisite rim ride as well. That always works well. Maybe ride down 4wd follies and back up again if there is time. But we can work within the skill level present on the morning. I am keen to finish the ride by midday, as I have other things to do in the arvo. Plus it will be very hot by then.
but on my horse! so please let me know if you are coming up behind me!!!
.. least you are rideing!!!!!!

Guys, had a really good ride and enjoyed myself. It is a shame about evan, get better dude. We will have to organize another ride sometime.
Mr Ev tells me.
Lucky we made that bet for $100! Didn't we?
Was an unlucky stack- feet up in front of the telly for Ev tonight.
Nice work to everybody for helping out and showing no sympathy ha ha
Hope your wife likes scars, Ev.
we should ride Red Hill more often.
I'm up for riding red hill more often.
Wow... what happened guys? Pictures please!
Yes - Red Hill is a bit dangerous. Cunningly I picked up some 661 pads from BA this arvo, and on seeing this post realise it's probably a wise move for the next visit there.
Hi guys!
Thanks for the great ride! Had so much fun and can't wait to go back!
Great to hear you made it to the Dr. on time Ev and that you are ok! I won't elaborate on your story, you are the one to do the write up! But from where I was sitting it looked pretty stylish
Just so much Rob:
OWING armour doesn't really help! Actually WEARING it makes all the difference

Yes, I loved the ride, awesome fun, love the trails. Not too many riders on the day, so we fitted in plenty of trails this time. The standard loop, some 4wd follies, Mr MotoX, rim ride, drop zone, and up the garden of gullies. Bad luck there for Evan, as this kind of stack can happen to anyone. Just bad luck you landed on a rock mate. But we know that next time young Evan will be wearing his armour, right! >:|
A next time at Red Hill? Yes, yes, soon, soon...
For sure Liam.
Next weekend?
Are your wheels ready??
The wheel should be ready to go this week....Wed or Thu is the estimate.
If not then I always have the Giant to ride too.
Buck, so what is this bike I am hearing about? Please tell
Ready for anything!
Yes it is a big red beast. Shame I have no idea how to ride it yet
Here's a pic of its previous owner using it properly
Nice, no wonder you're keen to go to Red Hill.
