Corey when im up that way next I would also be interested in hooking up for a ride, especially over Yarrahappini way. I think the ride that SB20y (sorry if thats wrong)looks awsome. It would probably be a lot cooler with the sea breeze in summer. How good is the riding on the Mid North Coast :woohoo:

January 18, 2010 at 5:57 pm #168339Taylors Arm rocks.Big long hills, sweet leafy trails and erosion jumps that had Ol’ Burple bottoming out and clanking a lot more than usual.
Everyone else summed up well with their ride reports, and Heart attack Hill was worth the effort for the trails that preceded it.
There is just one problem. I’VE BUSTED BURPLE!!
Broken headlight, taillight, exhaust,twisted front end.
First run at hill saw me lose traction, so I went back down and let a few lbs out of my rear tyre. Second run, got so much traction that the big girl went completely over, flipping in slow motion!! Thank goodness I got up on third attempt, as I was as busted as my bike! I didn’t start to feel right till this arvo. Body just ran out of fluids I suspect.
Thanks to Corey and Nathan for the weekend, looking forward to your photos Corey.January 18, 2010 at 6:46 pm #168711i know to well that hill your talking about on the second day i dislocated my pinky on it 6mths ago !

AnonymousMicknmeld Dick would like to know where you got the black rims from Dick thinks they look the goods Dick is interested in the brand and costing

They came off his bike, SM Pro is the brand, dunno how much they are worth. Suttos have a good deal going on rims and hubs I think, check them for prices, Dunno why you’d be interested in the black rims on my bike when Katos have come standard with black rims for some time. :S
