Well, as a few of you guys know I had a leave pass for today, RiderX, Crippy and myself went for a RiderX boot camp ride. Just the three of us, we did 60 KM and it took 5 hrs of solid going. Plus it was bloody hot today.
2 x 250’s and me on the XR600, what was I thinking?
Here’s me thinking I know my way around my local bush, well didn’t I get a lesson on what is actually out there!!!
Thanks to RiderX for showing me more trails than my head can take in, on one day.
A report to follow in the next day or so as I am to rooted to even think, but I have had a great day.
BTW, TB he has you as his next student. He’s coming for a ride with us.

There was nothing that couldn’t be done on a XR650, Although some of it was a bit tight for a BRP and arm pump reared it’s ugly head. Two tea spoons of cement and a Viagra and you’ll be right mate.
It was great fun, I think only once was I secretly cursing the mad bastard, the rest of the time I was thinking “sweeeeeeeeeet”.
You know you are going down a steep hill when rolling rocks overtake you at twice the speed you are doing.:ohmy:

If you remember rightly I was too stuffed to have a durrie on several occasions,one occasion that comes to mind
was when Crippy was having his mini heart attack in the jungle.

TB or Mick – 12km average for a Honda would be fast, wouldn’t it?

You are a bit lippy lately,whiskers. For that sort of terrain, 12kmh is quite fast thanks Dave.

Yep Ol RiderX is a step or two up from what I am used to, as it turns out that ride isn’t his hardcore ride.
