Beamer, holeshot, champo and myself rode, till about 1, then they meandered off and I did another couple hours solo.
Good outing, dust a bit prolific in places only downer.

Good to see Holeshot back in the saddle,he has been a bit quiet as of late. Still on the DRZ???
He’s a tough big bugger too.

I am rather happy with the ride as it was my first attempt at running a ride so it was good to have a small group and no need for the cornerman system or a sweep.
We just made sure all 4 of us were still ‘here’ at appropriate intersections and ‘Old Bull rest stops’.
The ride was pretty relaxed with several stops, including one where Diddle decided to lie down in the sand and wait for us, actually it looked like his front wheel washed out in the sand so we used that as a rest stop. The pace was pretty good in the tight ST.
During the stop Champo noticed a broken temp sensor on my radiator, it sends info to the EFI. No coolant loss so I just taped it back in, and the bike still ran OK with 1 or 2 odd backfires.
A stick had got between the rad, header and engine and scraping on the ground it had snapped the sensor when it broke away.

We covered ST from the pines to Mt Warrawalong, by-passed the usual loop there for a more interesting route and proceeded towards the 2 day enduro loop around the Basin.
Thats where I decided to take the guys to the sacred carvings site for another rest before heading down into the Basin and then back along the main road towards the Pines via a few more diversions to keep it interesting.

As Diddle said it was dusty and some more rain would be nice.

Diddle – I am glad I didn’t ride the full day – I stretched a muscle in my back when I was pulling the Beemer out of a rut. I would only have been a hindrence if I kept riding. I’ll be OK though.

Thanks for a good ride fella’s, it gave me confidence in running rides, I might organise a run to Millfield for lunch soon. Who’s keen?

Yep, said he’s been busy with work or some crap :dry:
I pointed out the DRZ needs a new front tyre when he said the front washes out a bit, most of the side knobs were missing :huh:

yea it was great to see holeshot again. he was a bit rusty to start off with (not really a holeshot yesterday). he ran with the bulls after a few klums though.

should i post the picture of the rock carvings?

one of them is a bit rude. we sms it to racy at work during the ride. she thought it was funny as and showed her boss.

I’ve been to those carvings. I think the carving in question is really good, even though she is exposed and willing she is somewhat a bit of a cold girl.

When you run your Millfield ride Beemer count me in.

We court another “group” in the act so I think Champo is a bit gun shy :laugh:.

Yes this is the plan since some one told me the Paxton pub has closed up and the Dooralong pub is closed too.
I read in the local paper that Dooralong lodge is up for sale again and the pub may re-open as it’s council zoning is still good for a pub. Depends on who buys it.

I will slot in another ride after DanD’s Teralba to nowhere ride.
