A one months Trial Membership is ready to go making it very easy for potential members to see what's happening and hopefully come on board.
Our new Chat forum is currently being worked on with a launch anticipated this coming month.
Oh, we have a new set of Ride Etiquette guidelines that each of us ought to be familiar with,…you may view them here (scroll down to find them) https://bbta.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&club_id=738657&module_id=566309

Ian Chant will have a chat forum running for this ride so everyone will be fully in the loop for exactly what's going on and when,.. It will be a top two days away in the deep south west on the apple and vineyard plateau with great mates,..
Later in the month Murray Davies has a day ride across Stradbroke Island (https://bbta.org/content.aspx?page_id=4091&club_id=738657&item_id=2541281). Its down for Tuesday 29th.

For the Bayside Points Ride,…Its not on the calendar at present as Robert Martin is still down in South Australia with the team riding the 3 week Wine, Pink Lakes and Desert Tour.
