ERICAfest; Social ride day CANCELLED
It seems we have somehow upset both the rain and event gods.
Due to the weather over the last day or two and expected rain in the next few, we have canceled the planned social rides. Again this is disappointing but in the interest of sustainable trails, enjoyabilty and peoples drive trains, it is the logical decision. We are planning another social ride before Pete’s track so stay tuned.
Thanks to guys at Erica for the work they had put in to get the social ride happening in the first place.
We have two exciting planned events for the great trails in Erica over the coming weekends.
TRAIL MAINTENANCE
Sunday 6th April 9AM at Mill Park in Erica
Bring; Rake Hoes, Mattocks, Brush Cutters and shovels
We will be building approximately 500m of trail, which will finally finish the Silvertop Spur Trail. When finished, the trail will add 3.5 km of stacked loop to the eastern section of the park. The new section will consist of 30m of elevation drop with 3 switch back corners. Don’t forget to bring your bike so we can go for a ride after the hard work is done.
Jump on the EricaMTB Facebook page for more details.
SOCIAL RIDE
SUNDAY 13th April 10am
Running much the same as the very successful Blores Hill social rides, there will be a couple of groups depending on ability and speed/distance of riding. There is a lot of great tracks at Erica which cannot always be utilised for races so this is the perfect chance to come and see what the park has to offer. If you’ve ever wanted to ride out there but haven’t been too sure where to go, this is the perfect opportunity to come and have a look and enjoy with supportive like-minded individuals.
At the conclusion there will be a BBQ for all to enjoy.
Meeting place will be the same for races. More information to follow.
