AnonymousThe top boys in the results you posted were doing 15 laps. Have they made the track harder or longer? Or both! :ohmy:
I’ll still give it a go, nobody is expecting me to even finish by the sound of it so I can’t do anything but meet or better expectation

Let me explainRacing to me (and a lot of others) is putting 110% effort into coming first, I mean after all the pre race efforts of training and bike development and mental preparation, you would expect to come first because you were planning for it, so racing is wanting to come first, and I am sure I am not alone in this opinion.
To be saying after racing these events you still went to work the next day, then how much of that 110% did you give, all of it or were you saving some for work the next day, Mate dont get me wrong I am not saying that some of the huge km’s you have done are not easy, and sometimes its a gold medal effort just to finish some races….Erzberg competitors would know this feeling, thats for sure.
So to be fair and accurate you would have to say that you rode in these event’s not raced them , and thats cool as well, how many of us can say we rode a A4DE, and then how many of that special group can say they RACED it, not many would you not agree, and I say that if you rode the Pony Express you will work the next day, ……but if you RACED it no way will your fitness levels(or mine) allow you to work the following day, there is no rest on the entire track mate, it is choice, and by half time the ruts are mind blowing, bike swallowing…. cool bananas, I hope I can ride the day, at least I will be able to sweep ride and I will match you one lap for one if my duties allow, wont you be lucky as a sweep rider is not allowed to pass a competitor.:laugh: :laugh:
Dave shut up and race it!
PS because you haven’t done it let be tell you something, the four day comes at you for 4 days and if you wish to question my ability or commitment get your facts together I was running between 4th and 5th in my class (over 500cc 4 stroke) for three days and hadn’t dropped of my minute where lots of guys had. Do you think its hard being that its Australias premier enduro event. You are a fool if you think at our level and age we can go hard all day, like the other day when you got betty going like a bull at a gate until you crashed and hurt yourself.
When the flag drops the bullshit stops, race it or shut it

Well Dave your response

AnonymousOkay boys bring it! (Cue the Rocky music and picture me running through the snow and up mountains :laugh:)
Let’s let the results do the talking :dry:
February 6, 2009 at 6:51 am #121009Same as before mate, we dont race these events any more we ride them

AnonymousI’m going to treat this race like a good woman:
Ride it hard, bashing the holes and bumps until I’m about to have a heart attack and then surprise all the onlookers with a spectacular finish :laugh:
February 6, 2009 at 9:25 am #121028Hey TB the first time I swept this event, I did it on a CRF250F( a very capable bike) and couldn’t move my neck for two days and I was only a SWEEP RIDER!!:huh:
