Hey Ollie I may have pinned the big girls ears back on the run to the car, but did it all on my side of the road, other traffic would have been ok, may have scared the crap out of them but!

I am going back to do that hill during the xmas party will test that retread.

You enjoyed the BRP Gilli? I thought you rode it thru some of the tighter stuff and open stuff

yeah mate that is an awsome little trail.looking on the map it is only 700 metres from the bottom of German point rd and it wouldnt take much to cut a single line in,might be a midweek task coming up:laugh:

Maybe that could be your sunday loop?

Thats my thinking I will have to check it out and hopefully the terrain is not to steep.

I think you just about sumed it up there TB. Good report. But you left out the part where i was riding like a gumby and half took you out without even knowing before the woop section!!

God damn boy if you rode like a gumby I dont want to ride with you when youre on it!, Yeah forgot that, in the tight single line rutted stuff that runs beside the roads near the pines I said to gilli go in front, of we pedal and I was trying to hang onto the back of Gilli because I knew he would smoke through the whoops when he sought of got a bit loose I was carrying good speed so I thought I would take the wide line as I came beside him his back wheel hit a rock and kicked sideways and knocked my front wheel, exit stage right through the trees lol I stayed upright but had stalled the big girl. I was laughing when I asked Gilli did he feel it, he said no but said it had hit a rock and whipped sideways. Theres was a nice tyre mark on the fork leg when I was washing the bike

didnt feel a thing hey, was just concentrating on trying to keep the little girl upright!!
I actually really enjoyed riding the XR, you can definately notice the extra weight over a 450, but it is just set up so nice i can see how you ride the thing so quick!
And those nice big sweeper corners are where its at on one of those…. felt like you could it sideways forever!
HORN!
