January 22, 2013 at 8:18 am #235840Rocket , send the love the way of the lads who put the tracks in. Mal5.1 and KTM_Rules get the props for showing me what we did the other day. Abit of exploring doesnt go astray either. True single track gurus those lads!
Yep, lets get something sorted at Orange or at Wolfie’s when it cools down more.

January 22, 2013 at 6:18 pm #235857The Three Amigos Ride.
LC (Berg 450), White Rocket & I (both on 300 KTM’s) gathered at Lidsdale for some G4 action of the sweet singles on offer. We camped and had a top couple of days in the bush. We had some top conditions with rain the night beforehand with no dust and primo traction. Mostly, I led but at times the lads were given the led role.
We covered Marys Track to the Wolgan Valley Lookout taking the usual pic.
Over to the Spanish steps with me leading up the hard line and hoping the others would follow.The log track and BoB’s waterhole were next up with LC riding his Berg across while Rocket and I pushed the little 300’s to safety. The climb up was uneventful for the 300 with LC found to be picked up the Berg after a nasty rock section caused a layover.
A quick FT blast saw us linking up with another awesome ST that took us back towards the Eagles Nest track. Back onto the BFH FT and off again we hit Marys in reverse for a short sharp session before hitting Babylon or The Ravine Track depending on who you ride with. Going up The Ravine stopped us with a bit of manhandling the bikes and wheel spinning brought into play.
A quick breather and we pushed on into an overgrown ST that would keep Lantana man busy for a week. A dead end was the result and back onto the Eagles Nest track with the bypass taking us back to the start of Babylon and over to the FT.
The track finders have been busy of late and a newish ST that cuts out a chunk of FT led us back to the BFH camp where LC & I had a play on Grabbo’s Hill. Rocket was happy to give it a shot on LC’s berg! A 4×4 stopped to watch the madmen at play.
Hunger pains drove us to hit up our camp for a feed set up for the night and refuel the bikes for a late arvo sess.
