    ROLL CALL
    KTM01=OLD BULL TRAILRIDERS
    *@#&*@#&*@#&*@#&ENOATH=TRAIL RIDER AUSTRALIA,DIRTBIKE WORLD
    CHRIS=THE MAD BAKER FROM THE COAST
    ROBO67=AORC,DIRTBIKEWORLD,TRAIL RIDER AUSTRALIA,OLD BULL TRAILRIDERS

    Well to start me and the ride report off,got a call from the mad baker earlier in the week…
    He wanted to go for a ride at the border ranges about all the excuse I needed done mate will call you towards the end of the week with the goings on…..
    Got in contact with KTM01 sweet he has a new bike trailer, leave pass and is good to go….so had the basis for a ride,well KTM01 has a thing about wanting to grab a burger,beer and fuel at half time.
    So decided that MT LINDESAY to URBENVILLE and return would be fitting for that type of ride….
    Was not sure if I could get the MT LINDSEY to my normal stomping ground which would lead us into URBENVILLE looped in. So spent a bit of time on goggle earth during the week and reckoned I had it down pat…….
    Also last minute get a pm friday night from *@#&*@#&*@#&*@#&ENOATH seems he is up for a ride,if I can supply some air filter oil in the morning too easy Ken….What is with that anyways????
    so meeting place and ride is orged and all sweet….

    So to the ride we went what a fantastic day it turned out to be the round trip proved a success lads showed patience in the morning while I stopped a couple of times to make sure we were on track..
    Which we and have to say the trails we found and linked were awesome and turned into one of the best days riding with a great bunch of fella’s that I have had for some time…..
    The run down to urbenville from mt lindesay had a bit of everything,flowing trails, log crossings, gully crossings,single track and fast open stuff but not too much,as we were trying to save that for the run home after lunch..
    So mostly single track for the pre lunch leg all the way down to sth yabbra road were we dropped down into tooloom falls,plenty of campers there…..
    We followed a couple of lads the last little bit before the falls crossing,still don’t know why those ktm’s were so clean returning from a ride and reckon there are still wondering where we came from and where we where going..as we were covered in mud and the bikes were caked as well and just came out of no where….
    So all up think the morning trails consisted of 80klms with the best part of it being s/t……
    So time for fuel,beer and burger all this went great good beer,great burger…
    We parked up right outside the pub which the local constabulary thought was a good spot as well,nice bloke think he was just going across the road for a burger too…
    Afternoon run back to the cars was an on the pipe ride on fire trail was great fun once the gut had dissolved a king size burger and 2 beers…
    No offs to talk about and another great day riding the BORDER RANGES with great mates can’t wait till the next one,was plenty of other goings on…
    Like some clown that had his mud guard fall off and some gumbie moments…..
    ALL UP THINK IT WAS 140KLMS COVERED FOR THE DAY AWESOME……..
    till next time cheers lads and ride safe

    It was a great day yesterday.:P:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

    Thats some good footage Robo67, I like the part where the Yamaha has a little lay down and the guard falls off. We now have a very big loop with every type of terrain, with some sweet single lane. The ride home from Urbenville was a blast was’nt it, my wheelie past the rally drivers nearly brought me unstuck on the tar.
    Where’s the photo’s from Urbenville?

    feel free to post a couple of the pics here KTM01…

    Bow didn’t bring any bikes out sunday he got a comp ramp:blink: on saturday and thought he broke his foot came up short at first attempt nice endo over the bars apparently,anyways thats all good now……
    i took pat into the bike shop she had a ride on the drz400 restricted and i took the unrestricted one…

    so to cut a long story short she paid her deposit this morning for a black drz400 suspended for her weight etc…
    will leave it restricted till she gets the feel for riding again.
    so couple of weeks she should have it…… B) B) :)
