    Well it started with a few keen takers :)

    Cloudy’s wife had other plans :(

    We waited for Anton as he’s often late :whistle:

    We then rang him to check, his wife must have had a better offer than riding :huh: He’s still in bed :laugh:

    So it was Dude, Rach, Gordo and me :woohoo:

    We headed south to Maculata, down to the bog hole and up Daniels Point passing about 15 keen 4WDers along the way (a days 4wding in that track alone :laugh: )

    We went south to Duffys and headed north. We didn’t hit Watagan Forest Rd again till after Mesh Hill :pinch:

    Some of these tracks don’t see too many bikes :( They need a bit of clearing traffic ;)

    We continued on to The Pines, had a late lunch and did some singles to Muirs Lookout and Lemon Tree back to the cars.

    I’m completely knackered now so it was a good workout for Murph’s ride weekend B)

    Can’t wait :woohoo:

    Thanks to Rach, Gordo (the ride was his idea I just picked the grading 👿 ) and Dude for coming along and Dude for his excellent sweeping :cheer:

    I have another return to the loop but we ran out of time :( next time we’ll do it :woohoo:

    I’ve got some vids uploading ;)

    Adam.

    Thanks Adam for the tour, I really enjoyed it. :cheer: …especially the logs and downhill sections :pinch: :blush:

    The tracks had a number of challenges thrown in.

    Murph I think you have them all worried about fitness for your next ride! :)

    Thanks Dude and Gordo for all the assists.

    Was alot of fun, I was also buggered by the time I got home. I look forward to the next one.

    Thanks Adam
    as usual :laugh: the trails were interesting and tough :dry:
    but the fact that they were over grown with plenty of fallen trees made it an energy sapper :S
    Athleticism was required to get the bike to go both over under under the trees :blink:
    But I swear the vines were trying to choke me. :unsure: and they wanted to keep my bike too because of the number of times I was pulled off :( , off the bike was unbelievable, .. to me anyway. :whistle:
    As lead Adam was suppose to clear the way, I know he was doing it some of the time as he had the claret around his neck to prove it. :ohmy: The vines want to choke him too! :laugh:
    Dude and Rachel, don’t know about you but I was falling asleep on the lounge :whistle: after I had a swim and washed down the beast.
    Aching like a bastard today but will be right for next week end :woohoo:

    Thanks again Adam

    Dudes view B)

    Nice conditions and Adam led well. ;)

    He led well into a disused track that must have took an hour, as gordo said “log, vines and sweat” but this track lead to my nemis ‘dude hill’……..this hill brought me undone in a big way about 3 years ago with murph and mal 5.1 (vid 2) but its way easier when its not a wet clay slope, so was chuffed to conker this beast of a hill. :P :huh: :dry: :cheer:

    Was feeling like I had had enough about 5 hours in but got a second wind and made it to the end :cheer: ;)

    Was a Big day out and had a lot of fun. :P

    Thanks to Adam for leading and gordo and Rach for turning up and making it a fun day. :cheer:

    Till the next one. :)

    ps nice editing there Adam. :) ;)

    watched your vid 2 dude, looks like fun. Nate and I did a Tumblebee and Kitchener run on sunday and had a great day.

    It was a toss up between that and this ride but the boy hates mornings

    Early finish as some dickhead had driven numerous pieces of threaded bar into the ground across the rode and one spiked nates front, should have thrown the tube in the backpack :pinch: . See yas on the weekend

    WTF :angry: :angry: :angry:
    Hope ya’s are all good though.
    Slightly bent now :ohmy: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    I will not be drinking alcahol Saturday night.
    We have to travell some 120+kms the next day, Sunday
    COOL

    Wished I was there, on this run though :woohoo:
    Cheers
