Hi

[daniel holderMember]

Hi all, I am just getting back into dirt bikes again after a ten yer rest!
Super excited to be back in the game again, just got a ktm 500 exc with 26 hours on the clock and berry well looked after.
Currently undertaking my pre learner training so consider me a total newb :laugh:
Located on the central coast and just about to turn thirty so maybe I don’t quit qualify for the OLD bit yet lol
Keen to meet any other guys just starting out for a ride

Welcome to the site, you will find lots of helpfull people on here to steer you in the right direction

Wow a 500 Kato for your first bike in ten years now that’s jumping in the deep end

Keep your sence of humour and have a thick skin cause those place is full of loonies :laugh:

[daniel holderMember]

Yeah I’m a massive fan of jumping in the deep end hopefully it pays of for me this time. I used to have a wrf250 and have had a Rmx 250 I got cheap for a bit to ride around with the kids at a mates farm so I haven’t totally been of the bike but I defiantly need some practice.
Thanks for the replies gents, much warmer response than I have had on other sites!

Happy to show you around Ourimbah Dan.

Let us know when you get your ‘L’s and we can organize a ride.

There’s a few guys who are after an introductory / getting back into it ride, however work is making me ride in areas away from home at the moment :whistle:

Welcome to the site

Adam.

Hi Dan welcome to OBT

Nice bike and a good area your living in to hook up some great rides. Check out the birthday ride thread that’s happening in a few weeks , you’ll meet a heap of top blokes and ride some sweet trails too

L’s on Monday all going to plan, would love a ride any time after that. Heading of OS for work in two weeks so I’m keen to max out my riding time until then. Cheers mate appreciate the offer!

[Mick DMember]

G’Day Dan, thanks for the intro and welcome to OBT. A friendlier lot you won’t find on the internet.

As the previous posters have stated, there are plenty of characters in your locality that would be more than happy to have you tag along.

A Kato 500? Awesome! I have ridden a 530 and loved it, so I can imagine they would be of a similar strain when it comes to the grin factor!

Cheers
Mick

Welcome Dan
You’ll enjoy this site mate
We ride a hell of a lot in the Watagans so we will no doubt link up soon.
Our house is right on the bush so its just a matter of gearing up and heading out.
Looks like a tidy bike.
Over the past ten years, I have owned two 525’s and am now on a 500.
They are a challenge especially in the crazy stuff we do. :sick:
But you’ve got to love the torque and power. :woohoo: 👿 Unfortuately though its there all the time, even when its not needed.
Enjoy and look out for one of our rides in a couple of weeks time.
Cheers

Welcome mate.

There are a lot of tools on the other sites (a lot here too but at least they are friendly )

[andrewMember]

Welcome,,

it’s a good site this full of information and I’ve found when you go out riding on an obt ride you don’t get left behind if your a bit slower than the rest.

and if you r like me and seem to spend more time on the ground looking at your bike someone is always there to pick you up and get you on ya way again you will have some good times here mate,,,,,

See ya up at nundle one day

Andy
