    I see Gibbit has Prologued 22nd out of the 62 starters in his Over 35 to 39 year olds category (190th from the 493 starters!!!!)
    How good is that?
    GO GIBBIT :woohoo:

    SO, Toby Price is fastest in Prologue
    Todd Smith is 5th
    AJ Roberts back on a Yamaha in 7th
    Wonka in 8th
    Matt Fish in 9th
    Jarod Bewley in 10th
    & Jacob Smith down in 16th

    There’s only 27 seconds from 1st to 16th.

    In the top 30 bikes:

    KTM 6
    YAMAHA 5
    KAWASAKI 1
    HUSABERG 2
    HONDA 15
    SUZUKI 1

    Good luck all tomorrow & Monday!

    Go the OBT!

    Just looking through the entire field, a great effort to grab 22nd on the Yamaha 250, by Jesse Paech. A couple of 300’s up there too!

    Don’t think I could do that to a bike, but great effort to be up there with the 450’s!

    Good luck Gibbit, have a ball mate, and give em hell!

    What about Gibbit!!!!

    Down to Finke in 3hrs & 8 minutes.

    He started 190th & came in about 157th………..that’s quite a bit of overtaking!

    81 of the 494 starters either couldn’t finish within the 4 hour cut-off or DNF’d/ DNS’d.

    Well done Nathan!!

    A young fella I know has finished the first day in 122nd outright on a KX250f not bad going for his first time out there.

    His name is Jordan Hunt he is an A grade motocrosser and is more than an hour off the top pace, just goes to show that Toby Price and the like are animals!

    Top effort Gibbit ;)

    Tick that box hey ???? B)

    Apparently Toby Price demolished all opposition yesterday & just had to stay upright & cruise home today to protect his lead,,,

    ANIMAL doesn`t describe him :laugh:
