February 11, 2012 at 2:03 pm #215947Is it me or is this the real life Homer ??
February 11, 2012 at 2:40 pm #215680Damn, thought it was 8.30 start, got to the meeting point at 8.22 and found the cars but no riders. :angry: :dry: :blush:
I might have still caught up with the only I got a bit confused on my way up the mountains, there were a couple of houses that I didn’t recognise and the road seemed narrower than I remembered so when I got to the top I thought I had taken the wrong road and went back down. Once I got down I realised it was the right road so headed back up, then when I got to the pines mother nature called which delayed me a bit more and to top it off I hit a wallaby on the way to the meet point and so had to go back and see if it was alright.Hung around for a while then headed off on my own, it wasn’t long before I was stuck though. I had just removed my helmet whil I tried to skull drag the bike up a greasy step when 2 blokes came along and helped me out. I was a bit more careful in my choice of track after that. About an hour later I came across a group of riders with some rough heads I recognised and joined in with them for while. There was Lotsa and GavB who had gone for a half hour ride for a coffee (or so they told the wives
) and they had run into Katgirl, Mark Spencer and a few others. When we got close to the pines, Lotsa and GavB headed for home as did I. The rest were going on an all day run but I had things to do so took the soft option. It was a beautiful day up there, not a cloud in the sky and the tracks were in surprisingly good condition.
February 11, 2012 at 3:02 pm #215681Yeah,
Mark & co were meeting at Yarramalong 8.30 for a run up towards Kitchener etc with a pub lunch.
I am still sitting here waiting on the verdict on the radiator repairs,,,, may be ordering a brand new one thru the week :blink:Damn, Am missing great riding conditions again too :unsure: :angry:
February 11, 2012 at 6:26 pm #215682Waiting, waiting for the report :whistle:
Chicken was home hours ago looking at his Spot page, looks like he didn`t get into the singles at all ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Another great misrepresentation of the facts. Chicken rode a heap of singles, that’s pretty well all we rode actually, rutted, rooted, rocky singles
I doubt there will be anyone on the ride that isn’t sore tomorrow :laugh:
Ride report thread will be started later

February 11, 2012 at 7:13 pm #215683Well did he turn it on & off so it only registered on the main dirt roads thru the mountains ???
Only what I saw :whistle:
I suspect there were some wet conditions ?? We have had some good dumps the past couple of days

February 11, 2012 at 7:21 pm #215684:laugh:
I had thought of that type of Dump as well 😆February 11, 2012 at 7:35 pm #215960EAGLE`02 wrote:Well did he turn it on & off so it only registered on the main dirt roads thru the mountains ???Only what I saw :whistle:

Well you saw wrong
Spot would have struggled in the heavy canopy for one. We rode the tracks next to the roads so that explains that the over ridden rutted things :woohoo:
Now wait for the ride report
