    First of all, big thanks to Mal for putting Tim and I and others up for the weekend.
    Secondly, it was bloody cold. I mean real cold. 👿
    Arrived at our lodge late Friday night after travelling through Pennant Hills traffic madness. :angry:
    Thank god I don’t live anywhere near Sydney. :sick:
    Day 1
    Woke Saturday morning to a fresh South Wester (freakin cold) and after breaky we headed off to what was a great day.
    We had the Bowen brothers, Thrillseeker, Rocket, Mal, Bob, Tim and myself which made a good crew.
    Rode singles most of the day and did some awesome stuff amongst it.
    I had ridden most of it before but it still blows me away at the work gone in to make these trails. :sick: :sick: :sick:
    Managed to stay upright all day except for one bit of a head rush. :whistle:
    Pics to come

    Day 2
    Bloody hell it was cold.
    Woke to see all the puddles around Mals place frozen. ;)
    A feed of bacon and egg sanga’s and we were off to the corner.
    Its a shame and kinda embarrassing to see other crew that were camping in a nice grassy paddock, tearing the shit out of it on their bikes and quads. Shame to see a nice camp ground get shredded. Embarrassing to be part of the bike riding fraternity. ;) :pinch:
    Apart from that it was a great ride.
    Mal lead us through some nice singles with a few small transport section between.
    At our first creek crossing I had a stick get caught in my front wheel and I had to dab my foot in the icy water to stay up right. :(
    Played on the expert single out near 2 steps for a while. Tim got it. I stopped a couple of times but managed to get going again. Mal and Bob had a few goes but got it eventually. (Go team Murphs) :laugh: :laugh:
    We then rode down 2 steps, accross the creek and found our way up to the Ski run.
    Fun and games there for a while, Tim being the only one to top out. ;) ;)
    Some more slippery pine singles back to camp.
    Some pics to follow
