Hey Tiny. I have taken to wearing a Jock strap and it has all but eliminated bruising like that. It keeps the old fella from hitting my leg with so much force.:woohoo:
December 10, 2008 at 9:47 am #114345Tell the truth Tiny, that bruise ends exactly where those fishnets and suspender clips join. You really should think twice about doing such a long ride with that kinky gear on!!!!!!!!

December 10, 2008 at 10:57 am #114344Nice report boys,Tiny mate that is an awsome colour in your leg:blink: please explain how it came about:laugh:
BTW I noticed your tyre was absolutley rooted,The MX retreads are guaranteed that that will not happen to their tyres.I fondly remember going on a big ride starting from wisemans ferry going to Kandos on a 88 Husky 430,wow what a great ride,probably similar conditions to what you guys were doing. Great stuff.
Thats the beauty of this site,it brings like minded guys and girls together and gettting out there and doing it:laugh:cheers Ollie
December 10, 2008 at 11:36 am #114355I took the retread of the rear of my bike Ollie, because after only 120kms in the wet at the Watagans it doesnt have enough to do that ride. Tiny had way to much air in it and it was spinning aver the surface all the time, Moto ran the same tyre was more aggressive then Tiny so it wasnt the tyres fault.

That sounds like a great ride (wish I made it to this one, working weekends sux). When ya get a date sorted let us know that way I can go and suck up to the rosters bitch to lock in the days off.

Sorry to hear about the mishaps, all part of the adventure,,,,,,,,Get better soon SORE THUMB:) & BRUISER
CheersDecember 11, 2008 at 9:08 am #114458We need a fuel vehicle for the next one to meet us at Hill end, Eagle I can supply you with maps etc and some local knowledge for out there if you want.

December 11, 2008 at 9:15 am #113998Man,
That may be a possibility, dependant on when you plan to run the trip. Tha handbrake will probably not be a fan, it might cost me 3 tickets to Brisbane to send her & the lids for a visit to her brothers HA HA, coinciding with the same dates :unsure: :unsure:
Let me know more details closer to the date & I`ll consider it, but I can`t lock in just yet,,,
CheersDecember 11, 2008 at 9:19 am #114461Will talk then Eagle, hey this would have been a ride right up your alley nothing hard just cruise and keep your mind on the job hey Moto
