Hey Clarky
Thanks for coming, the cameraderie is what we try to promote at OBT, glad that you had a good time.As for your bag ,I didn’t see it but I did see your white Kato and it did look sweet.
Hopefully your bag turns up somewhere.
Cheers
MickHey Murph, here’s a couple of pics that I bet make you wish you came on the ride.
The say it was a bit “fresh” Saturday morning is an understatement. It was a bit of a shock for us Northcoast boys. :ohmy:
I walked across that puddle and it didn’t even crack!!!
Well what a HUGE weekend. Thank you to everyone that had a hand in the makings of this weekend it was such a top ride. Thanks to Mal 5.1 and donna for letting us stay at there place friday night.
Friday started about 10ish when i rocked up at the old mans place and loaded all the gear and bikes up and shot through to MudnTar for a quick pitstop. Thanks brock for getting what i needed in quick.
then after a quick bite to eat in Taree we headed for the mountains and after a nice drive down i noticed as we started going through town before climbing it was 15 degrees and that just kept going down as fast as we were climbing. by the time we reached Mal 5.1 place it was reading 1c and i thought the jump was now in order. After a few things done to the bikes we headed in side to a pizza and a look at some video Mal had taken of the loops and i was busting to get riding. So off to bed we went (not that i slept that well with the excitement)
Saturday started off with one of the best sunrises i have seen in ages (maybe because that hour doesnt normally get seen much from me) i stepped out side for some photos and then i relised the frost :blink: Mal kitted up and left on bike and we jumped in the car and headed to Capertee where my car was reading -4c
We unloaded everything and kitted up and yes we were running late as TB like to point out to me
The first hour was a blur as i was so cold but i guess the 2 things that stood out for me was the Sunny corner loam and Ollie on a XR650 WTF.
Loved all over the harder loops and the rocky country was unreal to ride in. The loss hills and the pine forest were just so much fun.The afternoon loop was great fun as we were cracking a better pace now all up to Mick the muppet (as he now wanted to be called) hit tommo the tree and don’t ask me why we had named the tree tommo it had something to do with 3rd party insurance and all his big talk then we found out his working back ground and we kept him in high spirits till Matt and Pat the ambo dudes arrived and they took good care of him and sorted him out. How ever i think Dr Sutto may need to have a look at the KTM
After the lack of sleep the night before i made it to after the auction and hit the sack.
Sunday woke around 6ish and made a fire and had some breaky and packed up and fueled up. The morning loop was the best loop of the weekend for me i played sweep on this loop but nearly every one kept moving along bar 1 little misshap hey Galey
after a quick lunch the remaining 36 bikes rolled out for the ride back to Capertee which i played sweep on and had a little fun on the way back to the cars. After loading up we headed home and i walked in the door at 1.15 this morning and thought poor nickj would still be going.– Congrats King STM
– Thanks every one that come on the ride to make it what it was
– Thanks OBT admin for what you doCorey8
Well another top Old Bulls weekend :woohoo:
They never dissapoint
And a big thankyou to all involved especially those that prepared and organized the weekend and made it run so smoothly
Sam and I woke to a frosty morning in Lithgow where we stayed overnight and put on our warm riding gear
I pitied the boys that slept in the carpark as everything they had was frozen :S We arrived to a flurry of activity at Capertee and got ready for the cold start, for me this meant ensuring my grip heaters were on and working :laugh:The riding was tops even the arvo grade 2, 2.5, 3ish was a hoot :woohoo: and I congratulate Sam13 on his efforts to keep up and try things that I’m sure he would not normally have done :laugh:
Sunday morning we woke to balmy weather considering Saturdays start and had a fantastic ride on the grade 3 loop it was a hoot :woohoo: The ride back to Capertee was excellent as well, I’m sure TB put in all those singles because half the group kept opting for the easy options :whistle:
I’m dissapointed Bigger Al didn’t have a camera for my over the hangers flop down one of the hard option hills, it would have looked good :laugh: I also can’t wait to see the photo of the Sunday morning pileup on one slippery hill :laugh: :laugh:
Again thankyou to all, a quick recovery to those that got injured and see you all next time
Adam.

Yep, Adam I have the photo of the pile up on the hill but you’ll have to wait until I get time to do a report. :cheer:
I presume that is the hill that my old shitbox XR ate for breakfast ??
