We should  be  good for this one, whilst we had been back for a few days from our trip to old blighty we couldn't  get to Mt. Mee due to family engagements. :blu13

Sounds like a nice ride. Count the three of us in. STrudel, Ruth and I will plan to be there.

First RTE for us so I need to ask... how do these normally work? Does everyone just show up at the destination independently or do we ride as a fearsome group in violation of VLAD laws :-) ?

Hi Steve,

It's up to you.

Sometimes someone nominates a meeting point and time and take b off from there for a scenic ride to the destination, or just turn up at the venue around the appointed time.

Cheers,
Gary

Do you recon I could do this one, and still make it back to Harry's Diner around 2 pm for the fundraiser for the family of the rider that died a few weeks back?

"As some of you may or may not know, Flynn Howlett, Emily Pridham's fiancee tragically passed away last night in a freak motorcycle accident.
Emily recently had twin boys to Flynn, alongside a 6 year old young boy also - leaving her a single mother. So, we have decided to all come together and wash some bikes and cars to raise money for Emily and her little family.
We all know how hard it can be raising kids on your own, but three young children is another feat on it's own. Let's get together and surround Emily with the much needed support, so she can worry about the more important things. "

Google maps reckons that it is about 2 hours from the Bellbird Creek Cafe to Harry's Diner.
So you would have about 1 hour at the Cafe and would have to leave by 12 to make it by 2 pm.

Has anyone nominated a gathering point to ride up together?
Otherwise, it's going to be a long boring highway ride by myself.
Unless I add an hour to the ride by going via Samford, Dayboro, Mt Mee, Woodford, Connondale, Kelilworth, & up to the cafe.

Post by: CallMeSteve on January 12, 2018, 02:50:44 PM
I'd be interested in a group ride. Sounds way more fun even though we don't make as much noise as a flock of Harley's (Shiney excepted).  We are at Eatons Hill. 

Dunno whether it would be much fun scooting straight up the highway. Mt Mee is more fun though it does add an extra hour each way. The north end of the Mt Mee road (North of Pitstop) is really nice but the Dayboro end is quite rough and, I find, rather frustrating to ride.  A mid-way option would be to turn inland at Caboolture or Beerwah.  Anyone got any experience of the best route?

Post by: Gnomad42 on January 12, 2018, 03:25:35 PM
From eaons hill we could go up old northern rd, youngs crossing to Petrie, then beerburrum rd to caboolture. Then back way to malany and to the cafe?
Title: Re: RTE Sat 13 January 2018 - Bellbird Creek Café - Carters Ridge QLD
Post by: CallMeSteve on January 12, 2018, 03:44:48 PM
Pretty sure Beerburrum Rd starts at Caboolture and runs north from there to Steve Irwin Way then up to Malany etc. That's one of the routes I had in mind.

The inland route from Petrie up to Caboolture via the Old Gympie Rd is a bit ordinary these days as it has become quite suburban.

When & where would you like to meet up?

How about under the bridge at the Strathpine exit ?  9am since Mr Google reckons its about 2 hours from there if we go via Caboolture, Beerwah and Maleny. About 10 minutes less if we continue up the highway a bit further and turn in at Steve Irwin Way.

Hey Shiney (and any other Brisbanites),  which way are you planning to go and do you want to join in ?  You may know a nicer route than the one I have in mind.

Hi mate,

I am meeting up with Draco & jf3000 at the BP North on the Bruce highway near Caboolture at 09:00.

https://goo.gl/maps/9fU6XHHqzTU2 (https://goo.gl/maps/9fU6XHHqzTU2)

As for the way I was planing to go...
I was just going to go straight up the slab and follow the GPS...

That being said, following you guys looks like it could be a fun ride :thumbsup

It was a great day except for the crazy heat! Ruth and I enjoyed meeting up with everyone and finding everyone to be remarkably normal  :Blow

We would have been far better off riding back with the group down the highway. Instead we went back towards kenilworth, we chugged up to mapleton behind a slow smoke-blowing 4WD, crawled through tourist-infested Montville and finally pulled in for a serious cool down at Landsborough.

STrudel said that he had a great time too chatting with Shiney’s and jf3000’s steeds.

Looking forward to next time  :thumbsup

Well i started out on the ride yesterday ok but after Peachester i had a brain fart and missed the turn to Maleny, I realized my error when approaching the Woodford Kilcoy rd but then thought i could go via Kilcoy. No you can't. I am blaming my navigator if she had of been in her proper place on the pillion seat instead of working l would not have been chasing the GSXR and Buell through Peachester!
Sorry i guys I will see you on the next one.
Regards Mike

Don’t you hate that? I had a smaller one of those but at least it only put us back 20 mins. Blaming it on your missing pillion is a new strategy that I’d never have thought of. :-++

In my case it would be a non existent pillion.  Sometimes missing turnoffs is half the fun.

I think it’s like when you send your kids off to school and they learn new tricks from the other kids. I noticed some new and rather naughty behaviour from him on the way home.

As an IT tech I wonder how many of you plug your GPS into a computer and check for any updates.

Ah - a fellow IT nerd.  Where do you work and what sort of work do you do ?
