NT Senior’s Social Ride, Sunday 23rd Aug ’20

13/08/2020 by Geoff Fox

This month the Northern Territory celebrates it’s senior citizens. DORC will host a social ride for those of us who have reached the grand age of 50+. All over 50 welcome. So, grab your bike and your gear, head on down to the Club Tropical Resort carpark on Sunday the 23rd August ’20. Please arrive at 4:45pm for a 5:00pm start.

We will have a bit of a cruise around the Lee Point trails and head back to the resort for some post ride rehydration. While the ride is for those 50+, younger friends and partners can join us at Club Tropical afterwards to celebrate Senior’s Month with a drink and a feed.

Location Lee Point
Meeting point Club Tropical carpark, Lee Point Rd
Date Sunday 23rd Aug ’20
Time 4:45 pm for a 5:00 pm start

The ride will be at an easy pace and will be approx 1.5 hours in duration.  There will be  plenty of breaks along the way to regroup.

You will need a mtb in good working order, a helmet, enclosed footwear, gloves and plenty of water. Riders please be self-sufficient with water, spare tube, pump and tyre levers, etc.

As part of our COVID-19 plan we are required to collect names and phone numbers of everyone participating in our events. These will be used for contact tracing in the unlikely event that an outbreak does occur.  We also encourage everyone to download and install the COVID Safe app.

 

You do not need to be a DORC/MTBA member to participate in these rides. However, for insurance purposes, you will need proof of membership with DORC/MTBA or be prepared to sign a waiver.

It is the responsibility of the rider to ensure that they have a current MTBA Licence, take advantage of the MTBA 2 month free trial by the link below, this is to make sure we follow the MTBA club and insurance requirements.

All we ask is for new riders to sign up for a free 2 month free trial MTBA membership. It only takes 30 seconds to sign up.

If you do not take advantage of any of the options above you must understand that you are not covered by the MTBA Insurance policy for public liability or personal accident cover. You engage in this activity at your own risk and you are responsible for any expenses should you be held liable for a negligent act or should you suffer personal injury or property damage.

If you are not a DORC/MTBA member you will be required to sign a waiver before starting the ride.

Please see the ride leader before the start of the ride.

Feel free to message us for more info.
Enjoy the Ride!
