Thanks STM and Nick J for a great ride and weekend. :woohoo: :woohoo:

I must apologise to everone who rode yesterday for the hold up as my bike wouldn’t start. :blush: Found the problem and we were back on our way albeit with a route change. :huh: Sorry Scotty.

But in typical OBT style it was not a problem.

Thanks again and I can’t wait for the next one. :woohoo:

Cheers,

Lefty

What a great weekend , it was really good to catch up with so many Old Bulls in one place and the laughs were non stop

Despite nearly 200mm of rain the trails handled it well and I enjoyed all 12 hours of riding King STM put together , we’re very lucky to have this quality of riding so close but riding with good people makes it so much better.

Well done Scotty on an epic weekend you’ve excelled once again , Bollocks for making sure he got as much as he could for charity , my good mate Chris t from Sydney and Bigger Al for helping with the sweeping , Aaron and DY4 for letting me test ride their bikes and really confusing me about which bike to get next and to all the old bulls that drove so far to make the weekend so memorable !!

Can’t wait to do it all again !!

Thanks to STM for organising a great weekend.

The rain didnt dampen the riding, it only made for more fun.

Its always good to ride with Old Bulls, looking forward to the next one.

What a great weekend, arrived about an hour before departure time for fridays ride with rain falling and Moto waiting at the cabin greeting us with the news that his trip up from Newcastle had all been in the pouring rain :dry: so we knew it was going to be pretty wet in the forest .
Riding up to the servo to meet Scotty and the rest of the group, which turned out to be around 25? we then set out into the forest :woohoo: conditions were awesome :woohoo: creeks were flowing nicely and the group all moved around an excellent loop of about 30ks with big grins on our faces :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
By the time we got to the widowmaker it was hard to see the top as it shrouder in mist :dry: making it look more intimidating than usual :unsure:
On to some more great tracks on outr way back to the caravan park for a few :blush: beers then off to the Amble for food and more beer 😆

Saturdays ride turned out to be in one group of 46 :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: and Scott once again led us on an excellent loop of around 75ks which had something for everyone and virtually no problems in the whole group
I thought it was an excellent effort to take one of the biggest groups of riders i’v ever been in , around the tracks that we rode was awesome
Many thanks to Scott and Nickj for their organizing and Chris T and Nick for sweeping

Missed Murph looping the 500 up the beach :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

And finally well done to my apprentice Damo for being the only one to get up the widowmaker on saturday, just shows all the tuition is paying off :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Was great to meet everyone also

Yes sorry for the confusion my Bundy state may have caused that. They both counted off course, Damo’s was without stopping was the reason he was crowned “King of the Hill” Murph made it I have it on video as well will post them later this week, he stopped but got started which was amazing in itself :ohmy:

To the King, you are the King sir, well done. Your helpers (sweeps, pre runners etc) getting it set and run thank you also wouldn’t happen without you all. nearly 3k raised for the Charity because of all that attended more on that later

More from me later much more. Have just stepped in the door after a pretty much 9hr trip home because of the Hwy being blocked both ways (accident) roadworks (on a freakin Sunday!)

There are 46 videos to sort through and over 60 still shots. I am tired and feeling rooted later and thanks again to every that attended
