Ride Coordinator Report
Rides from the past month:

Around 20 all up for dinner at the Mt Moriac Hotel. Quite a balmy evening making it pleasant for those
who rode.
Sun 5/2, No local ride scheduled, due to many of our members away for the weekend attending the Gram-
pians Ride to Remember Police Memorial Ride in Ararat and region.
Wed 8/2, Midweek Ride to Woodend, 345km. Early start at 8am, Led by Mark Nicoll
12 riders: 9 continued to Lunch. Plan was to meet the Grampians crew at Woodend, but a delay caused
them to be late. They just arrived as we were leaving!
A good ride in very good weather – sunny and mid 20’s temp.

Sun 19/2, Sunday Ride to Beaufort, Led by Mark Nicoll, 300km. Waurn Ponds 9.30am
