Well after a few rather large months at work I have scored a few days off. I am heading out in a few minutes to do some pre-running for an up and coming event in 2013. I will see Mick in Choppy hopefully Wed night in the shed for a fizzy drink, it could be wishful thinking Wed night given I have some 1000kms off road between tonight and Wed pm.
I will update this thread with pictures and stuff during the next couple of days, hopefully my new stead will keep me ahead of the 4 x 990’s going :huh: Always have an ace in the hole boys, see I am leading setting the route and will be keeping it tight to suit the new ride
Enjoy work peeps :laugh:

December 4, 2012 at 4:59 am #233210What happens when you overshoot a corner on a Austrian bus

Chasing the XR was to much :laugh:

Happened on the access rd to Dejays swamp of doom

Had to get it out with a truck :ohmy:

I have never ridden so fast for so long as today. We are at singleton and I am typing this as homer gets new tyres fitted
Today’s specs so far

Up against this 990 I feel like I have taken a butter knife to a gun fight

Bring your “A” game tomorrow Mick :laugh:

December 5, 2012 at 5:41 am #233177Forgot to mentin that your SPOT wasn`t tracking after halfway up the Putty yesterday mate :whistle:
Still the same tonite,How did Mick go ??? After our convo last night & your comment on the days riding,, I think Mick could be in all sorts :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Cheers
December 5, 2012 at 9:55 pm #233266Well that was certainly an interesting 300 + km! To say the least!
Probably some of the craziest kms I have done on a bike to be honest. :ohmy:
AS TB said, I needed to take my A game with me. He wasn’t wrong, the boys set a fairly consistant pace all day with some tom foolery thrown in for good measure.
What a cracker day out! Then a shed party, a swim and pizzas to finish off a great day!
