The Rideadv July Navigation ride report, Lithgow to Orange return

Thanks TB and crew for putting another fantastic ride together, loved the riding this weekend especially Saturday morning thru garden of stone and around blackfellows hand (?) trail.. Loved it! Thanks Ron Dave and Micheal for letting us tag along. Photos to follow when I get a chance to look through both of them

Cheers
Matt

Doesnt have to be the most pictures, just the best written that makes me belly laugh maybe who knows.

Now come on, ride reports please

TB

Wow!! – what an awesome weekend – the RideAdv crew put together another cracker ride. I have’t got to many stories to tell as I did the ride mostly solo and some stages with “Hopper.

The highlights for me were – Friday, not having to work, Saturday, (maybe) having a WR450 on it’s side at Capertee servo (it wasn’t me

---

alright :blush: ) – Sunday, getting to tag along on a stage with Gally and Peter Payne – it’s got me beat how someone (Peter) can punt along a WR250R at that pace, Seeing Gally overshoot a corner and then “bloody hell he’s behind me !!! – I better get going”, hitting an” Ice slick on red clay” in Sunny Corner at 1.30pm

Special thanks to TB and the RideAdv team for putting on an awesome weekend, Stephen Gall and Geoff Ballard for sharing their knowledge, Hopper for helping getting us thru Sunny Corner (my GPS had me doing circles) and everyone who attended to make it a “Great” weekend

1350k’s in total, 1/2 of that done on Sunday – got home at 6.30pm on Sunday night (to a worried wife).
Iv’e attached some pics so hopefully shows some of the country covered

Hi Strucky

Was great to catch up and hear what you went thru – when the Newsagent opens up in the morning you best be getting yourself a lottery ticket. Overall was a great weekend with great tracks and great company – working on some time to do the next one :woohoo:

Hi Eagle – Mount Irvine would have added some fun to the trip down – make sure your new boss is aware you’re a nutbag Adv rider and may be late to work on some Mondays :whistle:

Linz
