:woohoo:
The day was a hoot I think !!!
Covered some dirt between here & there, some fun, laughs, usual piss taking, found the lookout I was after, had a great counter lunch & a beer too
AN interesting return leg with people splitting in different directions at different stages (we had come from far & wide)
Came across heaps of traffic on the way home, oncoming & going our way, so the dust came into play with the lowering sun on visors & goggles,,,, a couple a rogue bikes on the way thru the Wattos (near head ons) :whistle:Passed Seb & Co that had gotten their bikes stuck down a ravine somewhere yesterday & had to walk out (thats another story for Seb to tell I reckon) :laugh:
Nev had an off on the third last corner coming down Mt Falk (loose gravel corner & front washout) :unsure:
Mates borrowed WR 250 is a tad worse for wear :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:
Nev seems ok, some bark off & a sore knee (I will check on him this evening)Thanx to Gav for leading this mornings trail to MT Falk
Thanx to All that turned up for a CRUISY RIDE (big numbers for a boring ADV RIDE)
No pics from me, but I`m sure there are plenty to come from the other guys
Would you believe 15
All sorts of bikes, all had a ball on the varied terrain,we saw dirt, waterholes, mud, clay, loose marbles & even sandJust rang Nev & he is ok,,,, some claret on his knee but the bike needs a workover including new bars :whistle:
After the start to Nevs weekend, I think his brother will be paying for the repairs (as well a fixing Nev`s drowned WR450R) from Saturday when he borrowed that & took it to Dungog :ohmy: :laugh:Cheers
A tad cool this morning mate, but nowhere near as cold as yesterday for TB & KAT :whistle:
The 690 is awsome,,, had a ball,,, first full day ride on it for me & it is a handful at times:whistle:
But :woohoo: How much fun can be had on it ?????????Not real confident with the MT21 front in loose gravel (plenty of washout movement) but a twist on the right wrist seems to help real quick
In short,,,,, Loving it mate
Thanx for asking ,,,,,No worries Kat,
It was a pleasure to host the travelling duo Sat night (laugh a minute) :laugh:
Hey, You rode well again today by all accounts, never far away each stop,,,Way to go !!!! When we left the arvo Ferry, you took off in the lead like a SCALDED KAT :laugh:Also great to see guys enjoying such a cruisy low key ride
It is only a 320k ride for me but always seems to drag out to 9 hrs out of the house (thanx to the convict ruins & the Wisemans Pub) :woohoo:
Thanx Choot:laugh:
It was funny to watch,, depart the ferry for the run north & away goes Kat ________________________
Was also stange to have the ride attendance sheet dominated by Tenere`s today :whistle:
3 new models & 1 golden oldieThey went everywhere with ease, even the sand track to the old bridge,,,,
:woohoo:
What a day. Thanks to Eagle for organizing the ride. It was a very cold morning ride up the freeway but well worth the efforts. Thanks to Gav and Mick for taking up the rear and thanks to TB for leading me out via Wheelbarrow Ridge to Colo Heights then onto Bilpin. To bad that short hop to Kurrajong Heights was closed but the ride to and fro was good fun.
My day started with the Alarm at 5:00 am.. After checking the phone I had numerous messages from my works SMS server telling me all about the Aircon problems our computer room was having.. Well there was no way I was gonna give up the days ride so I did what any good employee would do.. I called my boss at 5 am and told her she had an aircon problem to deal with as I was on my way to Freemans Waterhole for a day ride.. Good thing she understands the importance of fun away from work.. hahahaha… :laugh: :laugh:
I geared up and was dreading the cold but it wasn’t as bad as I had prepped myself for. Definitely cold ride up the F3 with Mooney Mooney and Mt White being the coldest across the bridges.. I managed to set myself behind a semi which removed and the cold wind.. :ohmy:
After 126 k’s and 1 hour and 15 minutes I pulled into the United at Freemans and reset my tire pressures for the ride to wisemans.. I then got me a hot chocolate and warmed up a bit.. Headed back over to the Shell where pretty much everyone was gathering..
We took off and ducked right into some gnarly stuff which warmed things up a bit.. Then the cruisiy run to the Pines for a short break and then off again.. We cruised nice and smooth and made a few stops along the way. Eagle took us to some look out that was tucked in the bush around the Wheelbarrow Ridge / Bicentennial intersection..
I decided to skip lunch and follow TB out to Bilpin via Wheelbarrow Ridge / Colo Heights.. This was a high speed power ride and I loved it.. A bit hard keeping up with the Tenere as TB just powers out of the corners and the little DRZ couldn’t match it.. But I managed to stay closer than I thought I would be able to with only 1 or 2 oh f%#$k moments.. :woohoo:
All up I did 398k’s for the day 126 of that the ride up the freeway.
Whens the next one????????
