I hope I can ride as good as him in 40 years when I’m his age
October 2, 2012 at 8:12 pm #230163As STM said it’s hard to get footage of Mike as he’s either pointing you on a corner , disappearing round the next bend in a cloud of dust or grinning at you while you grovel on the hill he conveniently forgot to tell you was coming up
Here’s an edit of this epic weekend as I saw it !!
October 2, 2012 at 8:55 pm #230169Nice video Nick! Looks like some great trails up that way, that hill at the end looks like a right bastard!
October 2, 2012 at 10:02 pm #230170Great ride report and videos guys, will have to get on the next one of these ride they look gold and big bore territory for sure
Well done Mike and Damo on your first official OBT ride

I was happy to have the little bike. It was much easier to crawl out from underneath it :laugh:

I surprised the boys by not letting on that we were coming up to it and they both came to greif as the video shows :whistle: but I was impressed that they both gave it another crack
its not for the faint hearted.

I love the end of my vid where STM says ‘ Mike you’re a basterd ‘
summed up the way we both felt at the time

October 4, 2012 at 10:21 am #230034Saturday ride conclusion…
After the effort of getting up Pig Hill we carried on through the next section of tracks which are undulating ,fast and flowing and gave the group the chance to get the body temp back down with a bit of wind in their sails
every time I looked back to leave a cornerman and Spud was the rider he was still hooting 😆 I think he was enjoying himself :cheer: :cheer: .
As we started to head back we came to another section of tricky (steep)hills which again caused the body temp to rise :ohmy: so much so that once we got through these tracks I led the crew through to a nice little waterhole that we use on the hot summer rides for a cooling dip,it’s a bit early in the year to be using it yet as it takes ages to warm up even a little bit :S but Stm was off his bike and in in a flash :woohoo: :woohoo: we all followed but it certainly was’nt warm :whistle:
The remaining ride back over the last parts of the loop were great with wet riding gear :whistle: and by the time we hit the campsite it was’nt long before the beers were out
All in all it was a great weekend with a great crew, hope the hard hills were’nt too hard :unsure:
Great footage from Nick and Scott, really makes a ride report
October 4, 2012 at 11:17 am #230252The hard hills were a highlight Mike , I love seeing where I’m at with riding skills and your loop was tops. Til next year hey ????
