    Well after a few long years out of the saddle i have to say i am stoked to be back riding with the likes of the Old bulls!

    Having a crack at the Adv riding scene for the first time was a challenge in itself but me and the bike have made it through in one piece. Favourite 2012 rides include:

    1) TB’s 2-day Nav ride, teamed up with Eagle – great mix of tracks and a real physical ride – gave the Beema it’s first real workout (and was very impressed just quietly) :) ;)

    2) TK Ride – Excellent company all weekend with Strucky, PTW, TB. A good chance to meet some other old bulls and see first hand those freaks riding the 990’s etc!
    :woohoo:

    3) Just riding around the Watagans on occasions taking in the scenery and getting use to the Adv bike. Had some cracking early morning rides up there.

    I am sure that ther are many more to come and i am hoping to finally get out to
    Camerons Corner next year and am toying with the idea of signing up for the GS Safari.

    Eags, yeah really keen on the Corner ride. As much dirt as possible and maybe a 5 – 6 day round trip??

    I will have a chat to Strucky and yourself and see what dates suit best?

    I am sure the GS Safari is looking for a sacrificial bike for the bonfire – come along for the party with the orange beast!! :woohoo: :P

    1, coffs, conditions were great, love the mix of trails , the group went around great with no dramas & great ob get together.
    2, hills of gold, those pine single’s are a lot of fun, sure the open trails with out the dust would be cracking to, BBQ at the nursery – great feed & cool place. good laugh.

    3,Ktm bulls, flowing trails, fun grass track, hospitality, good session. :S

    Looking forward to trying some different rides in the new year. :)

    1. Just gotta be coffs. I think next time I’m taking a week off so I can ride every day plus spend some time with the family in a brilliant location. Highlight following STM. He showed me where to hook in through some tacky single. Very fun
    I did have 3 but for some reason only the first one comes up. I have cut and pasted them 3 times and have now given up.

    1. Micks Backyard Bash-Awesome weekend moose leading some great trails. grasstrack and beers with some great people.
    2. the first 1/2 hr coffs before i did my a/c joint.

    3 Spuds mistery tour to wooli and back. Great trails ,steep hills and amazing singles what more do you won’t on a ride.

    To pick 3 is so hard had so many great days on the bike with some awesome mates. What a life :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

    I can’t remember :unsure: did too many good ones to pick. :woohoo:

    My first ever race at the Nowra 8hr was hard but fun.

    Plenty of good rides out at Bobs place.

    Short but fast local rides with my brother are always good.

    Bellingen in the wet (under water :laugh: ) and dry (dust WTF???)

    Plus all the big OBT events I attended, except the hangover is always the worst at these rides. :sick: :laugh:

    Its way more than 3 but who cares.

    Rock staring it to the Hattah was number 1 for me, the Katos, sand and fast riding was EPIC!

    2 Day nav ride was loads of fun and comes in number 2!

    The trip with the rock stars to Wauchope was loads of fun ( broken rib included), grass tracking and loads of chopie Loam comes in a close 3rd just beating Coffs!

    Looking forward to 2013, if I have a bike (both For sale if anyone is interested), till I see you, have a great New years and stay safe!
