This is the DT 175 H I have been punishing in the Vinduro’s with me on its back :laugh: The last Vinduro I rode it in I managed to complete 11 loops which took about 30mins a loop in before time run out and on the last loop I had a head on with a tree and not sure how I am still here today the blokes that seen it live said the same thing but after 5 mins I got up and got the bike to the finish line with a busted speedo-taco and bent headstem I get the worst cramps on this bike because of my size and to ride it non stop for 5 to 6 hours gives you a feeling of achievment she needs some repairs and a freshened up motor but it will be out there doing laps again this year I hope.

These photos are not the best but it is all I could find, this event was in 09 at Broadford and as you can see it was bloody dusty I had to clean the filter a couple of times through the day.

Here is me at the 09 Three Bridges Vinduro on the DT 175 H at the start 6 hours later I kiss a tree :ohmy:

Here is a better shot of the bike at 3 Bridges Vinduro.

Cheers Mick.

That last shot is a beauty, it looks like it came from a DT175 brochure !!

The last shot was taken with a $10,000 camera the other shots are taken with a $150.00 camera sure makes a difference.

The camera was owned by one of the other riders wife who takes wedding photos and she sent it to me I have hundreds & hundreds of Vinduro photos on my website-forum.

Cheers Mick.
