Hey guys thanks for a great ride on the weekend.
Things started off a bit slow with Jack getting back into riding after snapping his achilles. His bike wasn’t helping things either with a sensitive clutch and a motor that kept cutting out a low revs. Must be going through an emo phase.
We finally got the blue beast up the first couple of hills and then ran into some other riders negotiating a fairly easy rocky section of trail. Subtlety aside, LC and Moto rode straight past them unassisted and we got into the good stuff.
From memory, Prick Hill loomed up before us next which was a lot of fun. Determined to have a clean run up it I went down for another go, only to be fashnouckered at the very top by an odly placed, fit ball sized stone. There’s one pic attached of LC “pegs deep” in a rut on Prick Hill, and a video of Jack making it up.

Shortly after Jack and one of the blokes on a WR200 bid us farewell.
It was then into some fantastic single trail, led by Moto, with a few unnamed riders having gumby accidents on sandy berms and green logs to keep the crew amused.
The rocky ledges came next with the highlights being Daren’s balletic pirouette, LC trying to ride up a tree and Dude’s rock climbing efforts on what is now known as Spider Pig Crack.
It would have been nice to stay around and have a go at the different lines on offer but we were all getting pretty fatigued and low on water by the time we got to Wuss Hill.
This last photo is of Dude looking for his gold nugget in the creek.

Thanks to Moto for putting on fun ride and the beers afterwards. Looking forward to the next one!
