Mals Central West 2 day ride

[MalMember]

What a top two days of riding. :woohoo:

Thanks to everyone that turned up I hope you all enjoyed yourself.

Huges thanks to sb25y and KTM_Rules for leading most of Saturday and GaleyKTM300 KTM_Rules for leading most of Sunday. You guys can now confirm that I am geographically retarted. :laugh:

Saturday was the pick of the tracks for me. Just perfect tight single after perfect single. Then heaps of rock crawling, up and down. The only down was I ran out of water 30km into a 70km loop in 28 degree heat. Not the best thing to happen but that’s life. I just bluged a mouthfull here and there from Bob and Tim. Thanks guys.

Today was more fire trail than I wanted to do but I wanted to get to the servo and get Galey out front for the hard stuff. He didn’t disapoint either with lots of pine singles and then in to the hills. Up a rocky hill where Gocman had an issue with forward momentum. Second go, nailed it! Then on a steep rocky down hill Pete had a little lay down which knocked him up a bit. Down at the creek Pete had a rest under a tree while the rest went on to taclke two steps and the expert enduro loop/hilll from the NSW state round. Tim had a crack at 3 steps and did a good job on the first attempt getting a good 150 to 200m up the the first section. The young guys and Marty had another crack after playing on 2 steps.

Then it was off to play on the Ski Run. KTM_Rules breezed up it and wipped out the camera for anyone else who was keen. Tim and Marty had a crack and made it half way I think. Then off to the pine forests hills. There was riders up and down going everywhere. Fun to watch. It was getting on as the travellers wanted to get away early so KTM_Rules lead a sort of direct single track route home. Marty’s bike was playing up and getting hard to start so after boot hill I offered to take him back via fire trail. Then everyone was on the fire with me and KTM_Rules and Galey went off to do some more hardcore stuff.

All up a top weekend with top blokes.

Pic and videos to come.

That rock in the photo looks near flat, it was the only part of the ride I was worried about as we’d never ridden up it.

First metre is near vertical then a few metres of steep climb

Everyone up no problems

Bloody great weekend. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
Huge thanks to Mal, KTM Rules, Sb, and Galey
Sitting here at work I am feeling a little second hand. :cheer:
But I have some great memories that I hope will stay with me for some time to come.
I enjoyed Saturday slightly over Sunday but both days were very challenging and heaps of fun.
I may have some pics to post up later
Cheers
A very satisfied Murph

[Dwayne OMember]

Yeah, Good challenging conditions by the looks of those pics Mal :whistle:
Just what the Murph thrives on,,,, not often you see Murph on his side or even with his feet on the ground (must be getting old) :laugh:

Cheers

[murph the surfMember]
