hot2trot,
I haven’t come across any rednecks on a ride as yet but I do know a few rednecks :laugh:
I know a greenie that had a redneck point a gun at her once though :ohmy: Still not sure which side of the fence it sit on that one :laugh: :laugh:
Actually it was quite serious with the police involved etc
Needless to say I do keep away from Toobys Crk Rd though
All the tracks lead to old log dumps and a couple of old snigging tracks, some go through the valleys and out the other side, but are getting overgrown, rutted, trees down etc and as half the State forest is now the Jilliby Conservation Area it gets no maintenance
The fourbies get in and chew it up a bit too
Never sure to go fast and loud of slow and quiet through the archery area :unsure: As its a field archery area I figure we make a good target :laugh: But I do read and obey the sign that says keep to the track :unsure:
We keep off the mountain bike singles
they put in a lot of work and get the shits if motos use them, besides there’s plenty of singles elseware if you know where to look
When you get board with Ourimbah its just a hop skip and jump up to the Watagans anyway :woohoo:
Adam.

Welcome aboard. I bet your popular at Christmas :laugh: Hang on thats Saint Nick :blush:
I live in Ourimbah so always happy to go for a spin
There’s plenty of tracks in Ourimbah SF with easy or harder options, happy to show you what I know
(as limited as that may be)
I know another bloke who’s just getting back into dirt riding too so I’ll try and get something together
Adam.
Good work Lotsa and Tryhard,
Top pics and vid
Maybe this adventure riding stuff has something going for it
It looks like fun :cheer:
Adam.

Nick
I run a unifilter as well. When I clean the filters, even after a dusty ride, the inner filter is as clean as the day it was first put in
I have yet to see any dirt on it
Mine is a 2000 model so hopefully before the head problem being refered to :dry:
Good work TB I’m sure it will help many a nervous DRZ owner have the confidence to tackle a head job
I’m looking forward to the reassembly :ohmy:
PS how is the barrel for wear?
Adam
TB
Your probably correct there as mine were only at the lower end of in spec when I re shimmed
I guess I’ll keep up what i’ve been doing and it will probably out last me :laugh: :laugh:
Adam.
TB or Fish
How many k’s has the DRZ done? And Fish how often did you check the valve clearances?
I’m wanting to know if the maintenance schedule in the manual is sufficient, although I only recently re shimmed and that was at 18000 km.
Adam.

May have to get a fourbie to tow it instead
Adam.

No amenities mate it’s camping :laugh:
Seriously though we need a couple of hot plates if some people want to bring a couple that would be great. The support drivers can take them from Capertee
Oh there is a nice flowing creek there a Adam
THERE IS NOTHING AT THE SITE, NO FOOD, NO FUEL NOTHING ONLY GROUND FOR YOUR TENT OR SWAG AND A RIVER
It is a good site but
TB
No worries TB just needed to know
Will need to bring the battery powered hair dryer then :laugh:
I’ll also study STM’s technique closely so as not to forget anything
I like travelling lightly :laugh:
Adam.
PS I can bring along stuff if needed like hot plate etc, can also supply an 8 x 5 bogie axle trailer if you are short for the trip.

Jim,
I read all the posts and I didn’t feel that you were personally attacking anyone directly, and I don’t know if anyone felt that you did.
I do agree we need to be careful with what we post in the public arena.
We as riders don’t need to give other interest groups that aren’t in our favour any amunition for arguements on track closures.
Having said that alot of “single trail” is simply overgrown old tracks and roads that aren’t maintained anymore, however the appearance still isn’t necessarily good, and appearance matters.
It’s the sort of discussion that was had that makes people think about what we do. We don’t all have all the answers, however we all have some answers and combined we may have all the answers.
My 2 cents worth.
Adam.
The Chad,
Your link is a bit like your trail spares kit :huh:
Its missing :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Adam.
Rebore said:
I assume Adam has his battery powered hair dryer for long trips?
Yes you can never underestimate the need for personal hygene and grooming, :huh: or did you mean for the airfilter :laugh: :laugh:
Adam.
Top stuff Dude
Adam.
Sam and I use a hairdryer on low heat high fan to dry off our filters.
Speeds up the drying time
but still leaves enough time for doing our makeup
Adam.
Chris,
You can follow me anytime
you will make my bum look skinny :laugh: :laugh:
Can’t wait for the Bday ride after seeing some of where were going :woohoo:
Adam.
