What a great weekend! Many thanks to TB, Chris, Protty and all who helped make it the weekend it was. Ferknerkles fire breathing contraption was awesome on the cold nights. Damn cold in the mornings too – thanks for the push and the jump start boys. The Falcooon loves being back in the warmth of my garage!
Cheers budgeJuly 8, 2013 at 11:46 am #245762Thanks to all for a cracking weekend , it’s so good to catch up with the usual suspects and meet a heap more both on the trails and round the fires
The riding was fun and I’ll never forget STMs lap on the postie ( I was with him every step for support
)
It was also nice to help the new King out of the Wauchope camps ravine , it was a big challenge ( shame we weren’t riding but on foot late Saturday night
)
Cheers to TB and Chris for a top site that’s made some life long friendships !!

I just saw your post mate :whistle:You would have to ask LC :silly: :sick:
Of course, he upheld his part of the tradition 😆
Hope he made it home ok yesterday,, he had a long way to travel soloWhat a shit day I had on Sunday, took me ages to get home with heaps of stops for food, shit, piss, rest, thinking about spewing but holding it down etc…………
Other than that the weekend was fun.
Cool Cells ride to start of on Friday with plenty of lifting over fallen timber, bush bashing and racing the leader.
The poker run was nice, even had a fun time riding the XR 250, got some air and did a few small wheel stands.
Arvo blast on the newly named “Chocolate Ribbon Trail” racing with Corey, STM and anyone else that was around.
Thanks all the Old Bulls, Mods, TB, Chris, Protts and anyone else that helped organise and site sponsors for sending me broke at the auction, had a mystery box of stuff that I can’t even remember buying or even what I paid for it?? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Gold Adam. You will win next years Film Fest with that one! The things we do for charity :laugh:
As for Ollie, what’s going on there? He is either pissed or has the steering lock on :silly:STM
July 9, 2013 at 12:13 am #245775How awesome was the OBT Birthday Ride. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
I would like to thank TB, Chris, the landlord, the sponsors, the auctioneer (that was the funniest I’ve ever seen) the weather man, and everyone that made it a bloody awesome weekend.
Only knew 4 of you before getting there & the rest of you OBT’s made me feel right at home. Thanks to you all. Haven’t been riding long but with you guys & gals around I think that just might change things.
The Cell’s ride was great fun as always, just love it in there. Luke I think it was not too sure but thanks for the KTM Trail Side tech class that you put on. It was interesting to see what was behind that side plate as the bike shop would do all my work for me. Just glad you got out of there as easily as you did.
Ollie you mad rooster glad you liked the rum. Told the misses about the kiss & cuddle but she said pass.
Like so much went on I just can’t remember how it all went but BLOODY AWESOME.
Teza You gotta check out the vid, crab a cold one (it’s a bit long) but after seeing you starring on Dude’s vid I got one starring Dude (aka superman) for ya.
The poker run well that sh*t wet sloppy slippery grass section was sh*t but loved the section from the creek up to the top. Slept through lunch and didn’t do the long single section but was told it was great. Dam. (note to self don’t sleep until you can’t walk you might just miss something good).
Can’t wait to see Dude’s new graphics, recon that’s gunna be something.
Arr so much went on. Just all fun and bloody awesome. Did I say it was a bloody awesome weekend.
Sh*t I nearly forgot ALL HAIL THE KING on ya Strucky
July 9, 2013 at 12:33 am #245776:laugh: :laugh: that was awesome thanks Adam :laugh: I was wondering why the back end was as loose as it was, Got home and checked after I washed it,25 psi didn’t help. and was a bit apprehensive to say the least. :laugh: Scotty you need to get a new wingman. :woohoo: Must of been the pink helmet :laugh:
Ollie
July 9, 2013 at 5:22 am #245660That was a pretty sketchy spot for Dude to have an off there rite on the bridge,,could have been a lot worse, lucky for that,,,,BUT he did grill me with that camera when I was stuck on the slipery rocks :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Adam,funny vid :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Ollie could not have caught STM on the piglet in a better place for a roosting,,,timing was perfect :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Cheers Teza.July 9, 2013 at 5:37 am #245661Thanx for the vid TR
Plenty of good laughs in that lap :laugh: :laugh:
Great fun for a great cause !!!!Ollie also made me lok good in his lap
July 9, 2013 at 5:45 am #245662No worries Eagle, I could burn you a copy to DVD if you like, that you could keep some memories……… and maybe we could play it on a big screen at next years b’day ride
