Mal,
Thanks for putting on the two day ride and leading / sweeping. Unfortunately I couldn’t make the Saturday ride simply because it would of been in the too hard basket, but who knows this time next year i may be up for it. Looking at the pics you guys would of had a ball.Galey, thanks for leading part of the Sunday ride, some of those hills we’re out of control but that’s why ” you can ride ”
The drive back to Sydney was interesting, there was heavy rain, car accidents and hail.
Looking forward to future rides.
Cheers

For me this was the toughest weekend for a long time. :ohmy:
Mainly due to the terrane and a bad gumby moment 20 mins into 1st days ride which had me in a ‘State of pain’ S.O.P. for the rest of the weekend. Very very upset with this situation that I had caused myself, and still am. :angry:
Anyway putting aside this ‘S.O.P.’ it will be a memorable weekend, of course I had voted myself the weakest link and Saturday was survival riding all day but the conditions were
‘Perfect’
‘No dust’
‘Cool temps’
Insane and seemingly endless great tracks.
Challenges a plenty
Sunday
Rode much better today due to medication and the ride was much calmer.
High lights
Riding up 2 step
Riding up Boot hill for some reason I really like riding on stones/rocks.
Pasted a couple of challenges all good fun and once again no dust and lovely temps. :cheer:
Special thanks to Mal and Donna for putting me up.
And thanks to the leaders and sweeps that did an excellent job. :cheer:
Thanks to Als450 for driving.
This was a good able crew to ride with. How’s that KTM rule dude go? He rides at a different level. Good luck on your Romantics assault dude.
Overall as I wrote this was the most toughest and very enjoyable weekend I have experienced.
February 20, 2012 at 1:02 pm #216655Great videos KTM_Rules and Dude. Thanks for putting them up.
You’re always hiding somewhere with that camera MR Rules. :laugh: Scared the shit out of me on that expert hill on Sunday. You blend in with the natural bush in your riding gear.
I like the camera facing backwards Dude. Looks cool, I will have to try that myself.

February 20, 2012 at 10:50 pm #216388Day 1 Saturday – Part 2
February 21, 2012 at 12:26 am #216690KTM_Rules rides bloody fast and handles that 530 well.
I learnt a bit in our sess at the end of the end of the day. I came up to a huge log and thought about going around it, but KTM attacked it with the 530 and did it like a pro. Time to man up I thought and handled it OK. I dont even think KTM looked behind to see if I made it or not.
We found one logged section with a big soft hill and talked about a new hill for Mal3.0. I got halfway until it turned to crap, KTM did the same then found a better line and made the top. The guy can ride
February 21, 2012 at 12:29 am #216692What a day, thanks to Mal for organising the ride & Mal & KTM_Rules for leading their sections. and to all that turned up for what were some of the best cHallenging trails in the area.
Everyone got through the day without any major dramas, the heat & humidity took it’s toll on a couple but they kept going.
Got a few more tracks to check out & when it’s a bit cooler we’ll organise another ride.
Some good pictures & videos from the weekend
