Fire danger rating for the Southern Slopes 05/02/2026 - High - Permits Suspended

24/01/2026

We’re deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Robert Quigg, known to many of us as Tex. It was Tex who first introduced us to the Black Dog Ride in 2022, a tradition we are proud to partake in each year.

The Young Brigade's heartfelt thoughts are with Debbie and their children during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Tex
