Hi all, another new member. Based in Newcastle and keen on enduro rides and adventure rides (even the occasional lazy sport bike blat).
Bikes are
KTM300EXC
KTM250EXC (2 smoker for the boy)
KTM Superduke 990R
Triumph 800XCand a very knarly MT-01 thats been a project for the past year.
990R is probably going to be sold shortly in favour of a 690 enduro R for my son to ride on adventure rides. You can checkout the MT-01 on my wife’s website:
http://www.alisonarts.com.au …. free plug, cough cough. Patrick racing in the USA did the motor and alison did the airbrush work.Still organizing luggage for the trumphy and its due to get the front forks rebuilt as she is a little soft standard. The 300 is perfect …. red spring 👿
Anyways, looking forward to some great rides, excellent job on the forum. Its nice to find one with plenty of activity.
May 24, 2013 at 3:19 pm #242440Anybody with that many bikes who joins up after midnight is a perfect fit for this site. :laugh:

Hey TB, Im sure alison would be happy to do a helmet for you at a great price, she has done a graffiti helmet for a local racer and darksiders themed dirtbike helmet as well. Both came up great, although the personalized helmet for Stuart Moylan was my favourite.
You can buy most helmets in plain white or plain black ready for artwork direct from the shop and alison has a bucket load of different paint types but talk to her on that.
Thanks for the positive comments, she thought that was great but did hit me when she read that she was going to be refered to as Mrs Squiggle on the forum. :laugh: If you email her please address it to Mrs Squiggle for me.

Look forward to it Eagle, keen to get bike fitness back after the boys I was riding with slowly fell away for various reasons. Thought I would make it to Murphs ride today but first time ever I have been caught out with no 2 stroke oil…. bugger
May 25, 2013 at 2:00 am #242444If you ride with the Murph`s,, you will need all the bike fitness you can muster “And Some” :woohoo:
They are a great crew, and have some awsome routes, but damn it`s way too hard for me these days :laugh:
Only light trail work and adv rides for me from now on !!Cheers
May 26, 2013 at 7:29 am #242445G’Day Mate
Got your PM about the 2 day ride – hopefully you will get in. You can get Mrs Squiggle to do some special artwork for the Newie contingent. :woohoo:
