Dear Member Spring is sprung! That magical time of the year when the wildflowers are out, the trails are moist and dust-free, and the great outdoors is just demanding that you get on a bike and get out there! Plenty of news this month, so grab a quick catchup before you hit the trails... Minimal Impact Survey and Reference Group Minimising our impact on the trails and land on which we ride is probably the single most important thing we can do as riders to ensure we will always have access to quality trails.The RTRA's Minimal Impact Riding Program has been progressing, with a growing collection of international research and Minimal Impact Riding Tips. The next stage of this important project is to better understand the attitudes of local riders towards the environment. To do this, we have developed an online survey which we ask all RTRA members to fill out. The survey should only take 5-10 minutes to complete. We are also putting together a Rider Reference Group that we can bounce ideas off. If you are interested in participating in this you can nominate via the Survey. Please also encourage your riding friends and family to complete the survey - the better a cross-section of riders we can capture, the more valuable the data will be. RTRA AGM - October 27 Put this in your diary now - our annual AGM / Social Night at the Oxford Hotel, Leederville. Anyone who has attended one of these can tell you that the formalities are kept brief to give plenty of time for catching up and talking all things dirt.
There will be food, a cash bar, and plenty of prizes and surprises - and of course we'll bring you up to date with what the RTRA has achieved throughout the year and what we have planned for the future.
If you have ever wanted to get involved in the running of the RTRA, the AGM is also the time to nominate for the Committee. We are always on the lookout for energetic, passionate riders who want to ensure a riding future for ourselves, our kids and future generations.
Further details, including nomination forms, will be emailed to all members soon.

Motorcycle retailers in Perth and the South West are signing up to the RTRA Retailer Supporter Program.
No, we don't know either - but Polaris's new 'Ace' 570 is just that. Or a quad with a steering wheel and a full roll cage and a bucket seat.
While on the subject of fun Side x Sides, Savage Motorcycles recently held a drive day to introduce the new CanAm Maverick X DS Turbo. 
One of the risks in trail riding is the lack of mobile coverage.
They may look like they exist just to make hills more interesting for riders, but those ripper little jumps found on steeper hills are there to prevent water running down the hill and creating ruts.
