September 25, 2011 at 12:19 am #209617Hey guys…. I saw you out there enjoying the weather !!!!….. We passed you as you guys were heading south towards Bucketty. You were the only other crazy idiots that we passed all day. TB .. you would have noticed two Honda bikes flying by…. I was on the 230 and a mate was on my XR400…(his Tenere had steering head problems and in getting fixed) so I dragged him out. We were wet at about 30sec from leaving home. We too enjoyed a lunch at Wollembi Pub then headed into the Watagan’s to play in some mud….. great day….. no cars on roads, no 4WD on firetrails, no trailbikes out racing around…… we had the Watagan’s to ourselves… what more could a girl want!!!.. anyway…. got bit wet but hot shower and rum/coke fixed that… all up a great day on the bike….

Yes Eagle…. I got some single trailriding in yesterday that caused the body to ache last night…. but felt good. We went past your ‘special’ corner…. you skid marks were still there!!!
That’s your problem Eagle….. you thought about it…….if I thought about it I too I would have been rugged up on the lounge watching videos… but today I got to test my mental ability of saying “I’m not cold”… about a million times…… and got to work on my mud sliding skills.
September 25, 2011 at 12:42 am #209619Thanx for the reminder on the skidmarks :laugh:
I only have the bruises on my hip, elbow & ankle to remind me here :whistle:You are gonna be ready for the SAFARI in 2012 let alone the APC
Stacks of riding you are getting in for sure,,,
Way to go !!!Cheers

September 25, 2011 at 2:18 am #209631Hey Cat Girl
You weren’t the only nutters out there today, I also ran into the the other 2 guy’s on Howes & later at Laguna when they fueled up.
My track was way to rocky & slippery so I had a short day but Howe’s was pritty slippery on the way back had a fun but quite day!PS: you must of been in a hurry for a beer as when you past the 4×4 all I noticed was the red blur wizzzing past!
Nice to see yu still enjoying the bike’s maybe catch yu on the trail! -
