25 First Rides After Lockdown (Now Confirmed) October 25, 2021 N/A According to the Victorian Roadmap, we will no longer have travel limits around Melbourne and we will also be permitted to to have outdoor gatherings of up to 10 people. With that in mind, we have decided that Monday 25th October will mark the beginning of our small group rides. The plan will be to conduct three concurrent ride, each one starting at 10 am. The three start points will be (1) The Stud Rd Indoor Stadium, (2) The Jells Park Kiosk and (3) Kirtain Drive Croydon. I will be leading the first group, Michael Slattery will be leading the second group and David Yates leading the third group. Anyone planning to take part in these rides should first contact the ride leader to check that there are still places available. Hopefully everyone will be able to find a suitable ride within their permitted travel radius. Depending on how this first ride goes, we may make progressive changes over the next couple of weeks. The next ride will be on Thursday 28th October. PLEASE REMEMBER ALL RIDERS MUST BE DOUBLE VACCINATED More
