Well we ended finishing work mid morning, it’s amazing how efficiently you can work when a ride depends upon it

We parked at Marys camp and headed out towards Capertee as Merv missed (read piked out) the birthday ride and wanted to know what he missed.

We found our way down to the river as I slowly got used to riding Sam’s KTM 250 EXC-F :S

I finally started to get a flow going when we had our first crossing. Merv konked out 3/4 of the way through luckily next to the bank so he only got one foot wet :laugh:

It took a bit to get it going but persistence paid off

We wound our way up the other side but must have taken a wrong turn and ended up on the tar heading towards Cullen Bullen :huh: Anyway we headed to Capertee to find the way of the birthday ride

We lost count of how many times we ended up crossing the river as we took several wrong turns in the camping area :blush:

We found a couple of good tracks up hills then down the other side only to be back at the river :laugh:

Anway we finally found the pinnicle track and made our way back towards the cars :cheer:

By this time I had Sam’s bike dialled in and really had some fun climbing back up to the hill tops. My timing on the erosion mounds was much improved :woohoo:

Only dropped his bike twice, once closing a gate and once 200 metres from the car, I’m not sure where the ground went but it sure wasn’t under my feet :laugh:

Thanks to Merv for the ride and I may be able to handle Galeys grade 4 now :whistle:

Adam.

Ahh the memories. Would have been a top day to ride.Nice report. It seems drowned bikes are the flavour of the week.

Time to trade in the Suzuki Adam?Or just borrow the Kato?

Well as it happens I was riding Sam’s bike to prepare myself for the new 350 EXC. So the Suzuki’s days are now numbered in fact maybe the end of the week :woohoo:

Yeah good report there Adam. Time to ride a proper bike eh. The KTM350 would be a very nice weapon of choice. :woohoo: :woohoo:

Good report Adam. looks like you guys had fun touring around.

The 350 sounds like the go. Even if it is a KTM but they are starting to look better.

Pity your DRZ is not a black one, I have a mate looking for one, but he wants black.
