25.01.2022 This is the fourth in a series of "Check Your Mates" campaign posts and sharing some TV commercials: https://bddy.me/39pHYm2 The fourth video is: Check Your Mates - Shane WATTS. TV Commercial Victoria offers some world-renowned trail bike terrain that challenges both rider and machine. Make sure you enjoy your ride by keeping it safe and legal and remember to CHECK YOUR MATES before and during each ride.... Mate One: Yourself. Ensure you are legally, physically and mentally prepared to ride. Mate Two: Your riding group or buddy. Know your companions and always look out for each other. Mate Three: Your bike. Make sure it is serviced, mechanically sound and legally compliant. Mistakenly, a minority think the Road Rules don’t apply to riding a trail bike in the bush or on other public land because they don’t look like conventional roads. This is a misconception. All Road Rules apply whether it’s an informal single track, open fire trail, main forestry road or a camp ground. All too often comments such as I didn’t think that would apply out here or but I’m in the bush are heard after an intercept by police or as a result of a collision. By that stage it’s too late. The physical, social and financial impacts of trail bike trauma are significant and often avoidable. The following information will assist you to make informed choices to safely plan and enjoy your time on the trail. Get out there and enjoy the riding environment, look after your sport, look after yourself and always CHECK YOUR MATES.

23.01.2022 The community is urged to continue getting Flood Ready and be on the lookout for landslides - particularly if travelling in fire-affected areas and especially at night after heavy rain.

13.01.2022 If an offer of #QuickCash or #EasyMoney seems too good to be true, it probably is. Money muling is a type of money laundering. A ‘money mule’ is a person who receives money from a third party in their bank account and transfers it to another account, or withdraws it in cash to give to someone else, obtaining a commission for their efforts.... Simply put, money mules help criminal syndicates move money around the world, but the consequences for the money mules can be severe.
