Yes nick you do seem to be unfortunate to have to put up with me and dude under similar circumstances allot. Sorry about that. :laugh:
On a more serious note. Me kevdog and mat had a rolling drag in top on the crf’s and kevs rounded up mine and almost had its way with the 280 kitted one. For those that dont know the bikes kevs is stock. Mine has a complete procircuit pipe and was jetted. And mats has a 280 kit with a slip on exhaust. The engine was fresh from being done. There were lots of other variables ie rider weight etc. but this was a little unexpected. Wtf ??? All had stock gearing. Would have been good to see how your hot cams kitted one would have gone?? Thanks again for the ride on yours it was nice to see what I needed to do to mine.
I am working on getting my photos on here soon with a bit more of a report:) but I will say now thanks to all involved as I had a great time[quote
Boonys Ktm toweled them all up on the trails !
Just like Michael caton said on the castle. “Tell him he’s dreamin. “. Ha ha. But on a more serious note mr boony. You would think after 6200 odd posts you would know how to quote :blink: 😆 Mate even snowy who you could not foot was conspicuous by his absence when the race was run so NO CHANCE !!! 👿 :woohoo:
October 9, 2012 at 11:54 am #230339All round top week end, I had a ball
Those fresh cut singles were superb, the effort Boony & snowy put in to make them that good was really appreciated, that’s for sure.
The berry patch BBQ was top notch, just what the doc ordered to be able to thrash & almost crash (few to many times for me)for another couple of hours. :pinch: :side: :laugh:
Thanks Boony for roosting me (throttle pinned wheel spinning on spot)with stagnant nastiness – roosting you back with equal amounts of nastiness + 10% is now on my must do tick list.. :laugh: :laugh:
Always good to ride with old mate Nick & all you old bulls.
Thanks Boony & snowy for hosting a great week end & to sweeps, damus, polly & king bollocks.
Cheers all

October 10, 2012 at 8:36 am #230600Here is some more video from Day 2, when I put it together I thought Bollocks was on the KTM but after watching the original for a bit longer I realise he was on his red beasty.
I have cut the Friday ride from about 1.5hours of footage back to about 20 minutes which I will break into bite size pieces in the next few days.
There wasn’t as much footage from Saturday due to the camera mount cracking but I will add a bit more soon. Luckily I found it before it fell off, I will have to make up a lanyard for it similar to STM and Kevdog.
October 10, 2012 at 10:50 am #230341Some footage of our history lesson on Sunday
Very knowledgeable that King Bollocks

Here is Snowy & his favorite pet goat :woohoo: 👿 :woohoo:And some of the rest of the herd
I am not sure who this chap is, rumour has it he is a relative of our current king :dry: :dry: :dry:
From that point on the lunatic syrup took over, not many pics were taken, that can be used here & off to Z land to dream of those hills of gold. :sick: :sick: :sick:

Heres Krusty
What alcohol does to normal sane folk ??? :dry: :dry: :dry:
Bols after doing a wonderful job of distributing the samples of merchandise & then counting the loot, which was all donated to the Hanging Rock Rural Fire Service – The volos who all do such a great job
Dude & Ivo haming up for the camera
The night wore on, the circle of knowledge attracted a few starters, however most of the troops were stuffed from the great ride and slunk off to Z land.
Sunday Dawns
The king turns the remaining hard core OB dirt bikers, into sophisticated adventure riders.
First visit to a hole.
Some interested AR’s
No Gold left here then of to find a reported old house where Naiden holed up for a while.
Hmm looks like here that King BOL is lost – the GPS has NFI where it isNo probs Snowy to the rescue with the I Phone
To which Bol says along the lines of “mumble F, mumle f, must be in the wrong place..
The on to the next attraction where Bol makes the mistake of leaving his trussty CRF unattended whilst being the tour guide. Snowy siezes the moment to wrap Bols bike up.Bols returns mutters ficking goat something and rips the tape orf his bike. :sick: :sick: :sick:
Then we are off again on the adventure to a dam just up the road where we all turn gay & indulge in adventure rider persuits of Latte & cream bickies
The pics tell the conversion story……
Summing up a top ride , great company and many new memories.
To Snowy , Boony & Co thanks for putting in all the time trail cutting , test riding etc.
You did a terrific job & I am sure that NO one went away unhappy – hmm except maybe the goatsAlso thanks to all the other contributors to this thread, its really good to see so many other things that happened with the vids..( some of you chaps are really good at the written word – take a bow)
Ride safe
