    I took the Gasser out on the trails behind my olds place at Maria SF. I took revenge with a chain saw on the log that brought me unstuck and broke my collarbone and ribs , then cleaned up the rest of the mx track and cleared some logs down scribbly gum rd. I was knackered by the time I got home. Fitness still an issue and getting some strength back . I will sleep well tonight :blush:

    Hey, that’s awesome you’re back on the bike Ollie! Wish I could have joined you for a tour of your back yard … My shoulder is nowhere near healed enough yet though :-(

    Got enough movement to start doing some stuff in the shed and on the bike however :-) Even gave my boots a good wash and dubbin yesterday, sparkling! :-) :-)

    Hey Razz, I was actually thinking of you when I was out there. Next time I come up I will give you a shout. I am slowly piecing together a loop. Others have been out and about as well,(wish they would do some track maintenance as well )

    Been commuting on the XR for over a month, first ride on the Gasgas for nearly 6 months.
