24.01.2022 It's that month again - Motorcycle Awareness Month! I ride on the road as many people do and this is the time of the year for all road users to get a reminder a...bout the responsibility we all have to respect and look out for each other. Spring and Day Light Saving are obviously here and there will be a lot more Motorcyclists on the road now, so take extra care and a few extra seconds more at intersections, roundabouts or while pulling out of the driveway to scan for bikes.

21.01.2022 St Helens to Strahan (ST2ST) ADV 2020 - 22nd Oct to 25th Oct. Yes folks, it's on again. As part of the annual ST2ST Enduro Ride we are again extremely proud t...o be coordinating the ADV section of this terrific event. We have locked in quality accommodation and have plotted a great route. There will be a few more 'challenging' sections this year for the more adventurous amongst you but of course we will have appropriate options for those not seeking that challenge. GPS files will be provided to all riders taking part so that you can ride at your own pace. We have a maximum capacity of 30 riders this year and it is going to be first in best dressed! The cost? $1,489. What does it include? 4 nights of quality accommodation. (Ride home on the 26th) All meals. Support crew, guides and sweep vehicle. Great riding on brilliant roads through some of the best scenery in Australia. Come and be part of this fantastic event. It has become an annual pilgrimage for many riders and it just keeps getting better. Keep an eye out on our Facebook page and on the St Helens to Strahan Adventure page for updates. We still have a number of bikes available for hire if you can't bring your own. Call me direct to secure your place. Cheers, Bruce 0421 099 857 [email protected]

09.01.2022 I know we are allowed to lane filter on a full license in Tasmania but nothing like this elsewhere in the world. This is slightly sped up but strap yourselves in all the same!

07.01.2022 Some great and sound advice on riding with pillions from Canada's Ryan from FortNine, covers the main basics!

05.01.2022 Toy Run 2020 Update Hi Everyone, We have been receiving a lot of messages asking about the Toy Run this year given the recent cancellations and uncertainty around other large public events. ... The COVID19 global pandemic has caused a lot of event cancellations this year, especially those concerning large gatherings and the concern of the recent second wave of cases in Victoria has lead to the delay in commencement of the Salamanca Replacement Market has stalled due to public Health mass gathering concerns. Whilst it is our intention to try and get a Toy Run organised and we will work with all stakeholders and authorities to to do so, at the end of the day it will come down to the advice of Police, state and local Government and state Health guidelines as to if we will be able to hold such an event this year. We will of course keep everyone up to date as news comes to hand as the ever changing pandemic concern unfolds Regards, MRA South.

05.01.2022 Toy Run 2020 mid August Update We have recieved a number questions about the Toy Run and if it is still going ahead this year with some talk about it being cancelled. I can assure everyone that there has been no cancellation at this stage and discussions are still ongoing with all relevant stakeholders and authorities and that until we announce one way or another one should assume that the event will proceed in some form or another.... We are working hard to get an answer locked in and as everyone can likely understand given the ongoing pandemic this is a hard process to work through. So, in short. No we havent announced a cancellation and we haven't been informed by any parties at this point in time that the event cannot go ahead, all avenues of communication are still open with stake holders and authorities both local and state government under the direction of their federal counterparts. Don't write us off yet! :) Kind Regards, The committee of the South Motorcycle Riders Association of Tasmania, Inc.

03.01.2022 41st MRA Tasmanian TOY RUN 2020 - Mid November Update Firstly, MRA South would like to thank everyone that has jumped in early and purchased a ticket, we've been absolutely stunned and delighted at the support that everyone has shown to allow this years event to proceed under the most challenging of conditions, we have been humbled by your response and it has shown us that all of our hard work to date has been worthwhile, for those that have already purchased your tickets, yo...u made this possible and we thank you very much! We are very proud to announce that as of 7pm tonight we've met our forecasted revenue goal to cover the costs of the Toy Run and that surplus from the remaining ticket sales will be donated to the Salvation Army once the Toy Run event has concluded. As we will need to be ordering the t-shirts prior to the event and we will need a few days to package them up for collection on the day, everyone will need to get their tickets for the 2020 MRA Toy Run by this coming Sunday the 15th of November. The cut off time will be 6:00pm in the evening after which there will be no more orders being taken for the t-shirts and ticket sales will cease, as ticket numbers remaining are limited we would recommend if you haven't purchased your ticket via our Eventbrite event then please do as quickly as you can to avoid missing out, once the tickets are sold out you'll have missed your opportunity to take part in this years 41st MRA Toy Run. Remember, The last chance to secure your ticket and t-shirt closes by 6pm this coming Sunday the 15th of November, if all tickets sell prior to Sunday then the ticket sales will finish as soon as the last ticket is sold, don't leave it too late - get in as quickly as you can to avoid missing out on this special 41st MRA Toy Run event. Tickets are available by following the attached link to our Eventbrite event.

03.01.2022 Toy Run 2020 - September Update The MRA South committee is working hard with all stakeholders to bring Tasmania a Toy Run this year, this work is still ongoing has created some challenges for all involved. The question you may be asking, What will Toy Run 2020 look like? ... What the MRA 41st Toy Run in 2020 will look like will very much depend on Tasmania's COVID19 status in coming months leading up to and on the day of the event and we will be complying to all the recommendations and regulations set forth Tasmania Police, Department of Health, Tasmania and by local, state and federal Government mandates. We have been meeting with Tasmania Police and will be working closely with them and the Salvation Army to come up with an event plan that puts the health and safety of those participating and that of the general public first and foremost. What does this mean? It is very likely that this years Toy Run will look very different from those in past years or those in years to come but with these challenges in mind we are hoping to make it unique and memorable should we be given the green light to proceed. We will keep updating everyone along this journey as discussions progress. Kind Regards, The committee of the South Motorcycle Riders Association of Tasmania, Inc.
