    Great Day ……………………..You should’ve been there

    You know you’ve made the most of it when Both Rocket and Galey are stuffed at the end of it

    I think its one of the only times I ‘d had enough at the end of the day and didn’t yern for more

    Notes to consider for next excursion

    Trees have no give when u line the front tyre up
    ( I thought that was a better option than trying to bounce around with a shoulder and a knee )

    Bike fitness needs a little improvement when u ride with the pro’s

    Mountain bike jumps aren’t really made for dirtbikes , they need to leave a bit more room on the other side and place a sign on the for side for warning

    Galey just can’t get enough of hillclimbs

    Creeks are full of water and can be deep in places

    Rocket likes swimming in cold streams ………Twice ………….in the same stream

    KTM headlights are waterproof once they are full of water
    still a couple of hillclimbs to do ……………..we were running out of daylight:whistle: :whistle:

    Bike riding is sooooooooo much fun:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

    Great day thanks Guys

    My young bloke got a 50 when he was 4 (12 months ago) I didn’t put trainong wheels on it at first because he is a pretty talented little fella

    Yes he could ride it without them he went great until he crashed
    his legs are too short and when he crashed the bike falls on there feet and then they twist it and they can’t lift it off then they don’t want to get on it again as it hurts

    I put the wheels on and he was keen again

    My opinion would be if there legs can reach the ground and walk along with the bike no wheels , if not put on wheels

    He has just started to ride with no wheels and yes it is like going back 10 steps but he is riding it and loves it

    And get stuffed Tb
    I know i can’t touch the ground either

    fresh ULP does the trick you only use it to bead a tyre really lead petrol was better

    done it heaps of times , it doesn’t always work
    you need to attach air going into the tyre through the valve and then splash ignite and dash at the same time for the hard ones

    not recommended in the shed either

    and if u don’t get it the first or second time the tyre heats up and gets harder each time and also tends to catch on fire so you have to the n put the tyre out

    Great pics and report TwoBanger. Looking forward to the ADB cover shots. Pauly cooked up a storm and the way he carefully turned those steaks and flattened the rissoles has taught me to respect my meat more :whistle: .The quickshades were a blessing as was Clarky donating his front sprocket and Pauly towing Axel back to camp with the GPS leading the way. I was glad that the hold up was bike related and not injury related.
    More from Galey later. ;)

    REPEAT PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED. THREE MONTHLY INTERVALS!

    The drugs I’m on might not last that long :(

    Happy to have had 6 hrs in of the weekend
