2011 OBT Christmas party ride weekend Nundle

A few pictures of our weekend test ride to wet your appetites until the Xmas ride bash.
Friday.
We camped over towards the Ponderosa, 7 riders. a 70 k ride.

Headed toward Nundle to check out a rumour of an off road way out of Nundle
Snowy checking out his maps :silly: :silly: :silly:

Boony on his best behavior 😆 😆 😆

Damus having a power nap in the sun

Ready to blast orf

Through the creek & up the steps

Down the mother of Jesus hill – a steepish rutted downhill :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:
Not as hard as it looks :huh: :huh: :huh:

What goes down must come up – Boony helping what a nice chap :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

Saturday 9 riders 100ks
Another pearler of a day for a ride.
With a Kato 350 to evaluate :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Some of the Nundle hills :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Unfortunately even new katos are not immune to flats – or was it just pep??

Our posing moit

Yep that tube is beyond wepair

Saturday Night saw the crew being pretty worn out from the great riding experienced. The beers round the campfire sorta interrupted by a very large thunder storm.
Bonus from the storm was water on the trails to keep the dust down.

Sunday 14 riders 130ks
Morning tea at the Berry Patch YUM YUM

Some practice at getting over logs :unsure:

Snowy in action, Is that terror in his eyes at the anchor in flight , even Pep seems to be saying whoa up 😆 😆 😆

Another creek crossing

This looks like Boony chucking rocks in the creek, probably to help some poor rider get a bit more traction .. NOT :angry: :angry: :angry:

Nearly home

SUMMARY
I had the best 3 day ride. It seemed that the gods had made the weather & trails perfect for us.
From the steep Parachute Hill, Mother of Jesus , the singles thru the plantation pines.
Wow just great.

Thanks to the orgynizers Snowy & Boony.. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
To all OBT’s, head to the Xmas ride , you won’t be disappointed.

My only query is why is Boony so sensitive about lamb all of a sudden ??

Hey Boonster can Robert come along ???

( Don’t worry Aaron if they start picking on us I’ve got a new stash as well, and if the oldy’s stay in a cabin …………there may be one less cabin by the end of it ?)

Is there anyone from over this way, that is actually taking a Trailbike??? Or have you all Changed? :S

Lol. That’s why its called single trail as you will be the only one on it

Watch out Boonster,
Maybe Boll has hijacked your weekend and turned it into a full on ADV event :laugh:

The numbers are growing as they slip to the Dark Side 👿

It has the makings of a good run,
Wauchope, over the top to Nundle, then back south to Moonan and home :woohoo:

Forgot to add in the compulsary fri shed party that is sure to kick off the run ?????? isn`t it ??? :silly:

I’m not from over there so to speak

But i’ll be on the single trail wether it be on my own or not

too many straight lines and bent riders on adventure rides

:whistle: :laugh: :pinch:
Thought i betta put in some smilies ..don’t want to start world war 4

Hey Boll, my mother lives in Nundle so I will have a spare bed to camp in , there is 1 other bed up for the taking as well as unlimited floor space for swags if any old bulls get stuck. Also a shed and a big secure yard to park the bikes if needed. Short walk to the pub/cabin park, 😆 I will be up Sat and home Sun arvo back to Barraba. If any old bull interested drop me a line .

Cheers
