Honda CRF450 with a KTM hydraulic clutch (Muz), KTM EXC350 (Seb) & the little 300.
The day was wet and cold but not windy which was a bonus.
First up was Heart Attack Hill.
Team Galey’s Hill. The 350 didn’t get up as he had an M12 rear tyre. The goggles came off here and the safety glasses went on.
Around to The Nasty with no dramas.
Down the Ski Run bypass heading to The Creek Track which was a raging torrent so that was cut out.
Over to The Prick Track where some motorcrossers on Yammies flew past on the FT.
Around to Grabbos Hell Track or Dozer Track for a reality check and a look see from the top. It didn’t look any easier from the bottom so no takers.
Up the 2 Steps then to the Pro Hill from the 2 day. A bit slippery for the Honda and 300 getting to the summit, with the 350 not getting past the turn.
We took the 4Day/ Rally ST over to Mt Ovens for a spectacular look at the fog. A few trail snacks then ST over to Macabees rd then more 4Day ST that links up with the Prison Track.
A little venture into some tall pines making a rough layout for a fast grass track style loop, too fast in fact, so some more twisty bits will be added. Stay tuned.
More 4day Special Test ST to the Arboretum for lunch where I told the lads I had some chunky soup to heat up on the cooker. Only drama was the cooker was in the shed!
Refuelled bikes and bodies with some gear changes going on with dry gloves and tops.
ST & FT over to the Cycle Track then crossing Cupitts Lane to more ST to get to The Pinnacle FT for more ST action on The Tree Track.
This led us to Slate Hill where we could hear KTM_Rules and his club having a mudbath at their race.
Slate Hill caused some issues for Seb & I with traction issues. The lads pulled the pin to get home in time for dinner so we high tailed it to the cars as the sun came out.
Everyone was cold, wet and miserable but still enjoyed the ride. Maybe the L.M.S ride should have been on that weekend!
No pics.
