    Your Honor…..if you look closely at the picture,it is obviuos that the KTM rider was way off side,my client,the yamaha rider in blue,seen at the top left hand side of the picture,had ever right to stick out his arm and give the offender a “coat hanger”…………….case closed KTM_20100228-20100309.jpg

    Allllll righty then :woohoo:
    Saturdays report :)
    Should not have helped Kram scull his last schooner the night before :S
    Woke up,felt like some scumbag belted me in the knee with a baseball bat from the ride on Friday,walked out to see poor Boulder with his knee on ice,what the bloody hell am i bitchin about? Got dressed and had a yarn to Holeshot.Holeshot decided to pull out of the ride which was fair enough as he was very concerned about any rider stuck behind him copping a bit of roost….and i don’t mean mud :P (splatter bum).Walked outside to see more bulls than the Tamworth rodeo,impressive site…this was gonna be a cracker :cheer:
    Off we went and it reminded me of all those choppers in Apocolyps Now heading off in a swam to blow away some Nogs..”I love the smell of dirtbikes in the morning” :woohoo:
    Like a good Melbourne Cup stayer i settled down early towards the back of the field.To my surprise i even made corner man once :ohmy: All caution was thrown to the wind this fine Saturday morning…”THIS MORNING….WE DINE IN HELL”!!!!!
    Lots of mud,slime , ruts,sweet singles and trickey shit…i was having a hoot :cheer:Had no idea where we were, or where we were going and didn’t give a rats bum.Fog got the better of me and i opted for the safety glasses,obviously they were not perscription glasses as this was the begining of a few dramatic logistical dismounts for my self(hmmm….i seem to have a lot of these in my reports :huh: )First one was near the highway and i bounced on my lovehandles in the mud,sat up and i had a stick lodged into my mouth,about the width of a ciggy and about 2 foot long…weird…that coulda got ugly :unsure:
    Watched our fearless TB have a heavy smackdown on a state forestry booby trap :ohmy:…your bike looked like the Steam pipes at the Liddell Power plant near Muswellbrook there for a moment mate :P
    Had a nice 180 at one point which knocked the wind outa me for a sec…once again my bike was trying to turn around and go Home :dry: .
    Oh yeah,and that one infront of you Mick,i could see in a split second that my bike wanted to duck of into the bush for a leak so i had no option but to hit the eject button,and quickly…thats why i managed to run in mid air and half way down the hill,i’m getting good at those…i will teach you one day :) Cant rember the others,maybe it was concussion?…had 5 that day and 3 drops….cool :P
    Big feed for lunch,….and yes…i was rooted :( …bugger all sleep during the week..blah blah blah :blush: Headed back to the chook ladies place with Jefro,STM and lead by…ummmm…bugger…can’t remember his name…nice bloke,wore all Orange riding gear..you know who you are..thanks.Went to the land of Nod because I was very concerned I would not be physically able to sit up all night and drink sherberts with the Lads !!!..Wise decision as it turned out a bloody funny session “NAIL EM UP…NAIL SOME SENSE INTO EM” :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: …ahh….you had to be there.
    Big thanks to you Mick,thanks for the invite.Cheers X,Ash and the rest of the lads who cleared the trails,swept(my best Buddies) led(never saw you) and anyone else who had anything to do with the ride,I could go on but it is starting to sound like an Oscar acceptance speech.
    I really had a great time and Old Bulls Rock B)

    Spooky feeling waking up on a Friday morning and not heading off to work…happy days :cheer:
    All kitted up and ready to go and the lads from town roll in munching on B & E rolls and some strange looking Gatoraids(oh….and thanks for dumping all your rubbish in my trailer you criminals :angry: )
    Knowing that we had a few big days rides ahead of us,i was in a bit of a “Driving miss Daisey Mode” for the first half of the day B) The pace was on for the first hour of the ride as a few Bulls tested each other out on the open stuff,i just putted along thinking….soon i will have an off…and i’ll be buggered if it is going to be at this pace on this hard rocky ground..as these thoughts went through my mind Justo screamed past me and didn’t quite relieze that we were heading into a pretty tight corner :ohmy: .I saw his brake lights appear , heard his sphincter muscle pop and down he went :silly: Justos bike slid across the road and down over the edge.Justo did a bit of rag dolling and came to rest at the roads edge.A tree had stopped his Katos decent further down the hill and he requested i give him a hand…pigs arse…i’m getting my camera :woohoo:Bit later on Boulder came down heavy on some Boulders on a a flat open bit,at pace i imagine :unsure: The big fella was in a bit of pain,but,being the tropper he is carried on camping!!This stack only stiffened my resolve to take it easy on this sorta stuff.
    We got to Kempsey and re fuelled and Ollie took over as leader,he commented that i was riding like an old sheila(or something to that effect :laugh: ) We started riding through some pretty cool singles and i noticed we had left all the rocks behind and it was nice soft sandy loamy stuff.. :woohoo: Time to get out of first gear :woohoo: …belting along i found one of those nice greasy long shallow wet ruts,without fail they bring me undone,over the handle bars flying through the air…i even had enough time to scream :P landed on my knee which hurt like a bastard,bike went off into the bush to the right and ended up faceing the way we came(i think it wanted to go home 😆 )and i ended up on the other side of the track.Sitting on my Bum i couldn’t hear any one comming up behind me so i thought..”crikey..i might get away with this!!!”…limped over and grabbed my bike the a mob of hells angels roared over the same rise i lost it on, going flat bicky.I hid in the bush but unfortunatly Tb saw me…bugger :blush:
    Ollie was like a bulldozer clearing paths through that awfull bloody lantana stuff(kept that stuff on the coast will ya?)Along with spiders and Goannas…top effort mate :) Pulled up at a crossing and Ollie had half the forest wrapped around his front wheel…there was a shrine at the same spot for a young girl whose body was dumped there…that freaked me out a bit.
    Had a big feed at Cresent head and I saw TB do some of the best wheelies I have ever seen…you are a legend mate…you shoulda seen the faces on the 2 young fellas walking home from school.. you went past on one wheel flat out…they had grins from ear to ear and were hi fiving each other…future bulls in the making. Hit Plomer road….now…that aint a road…that’s an abomination!!! I’m sure the Australian Army has been using that road for artillery practice. I had fun going through the middle of every lake until about the 36th nearly drowned me. I got very excited when we lined up for the ferry…never been on one before..On a bike anyway. I smooth charmed old mate a got on for free !!! Bonus!!!
    Back at Mooses place we cracked a tinnie…a good ride always ends with a beer eh Kram? Went and spruced up at the Chook ladies place,weren’t they champions?Had a good feed and the local rissole and Presented Mick with his cake. And you blokes thought they were only Virtual cakes eh? Could have killed you Thursday night in Mick’s shed TB when you kept bitchin about no cake …Surprise Surprise !!!
    Eventually hit the fart sack and dreamed of the terrors that awaited me the next day.

    CRACKALACKING WEEKEND :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

    Got to Longflat,about 20 mins outa Waucoppy at about 9.40pm Thursday night,eager to get to the shed party before it was all to late,licking saltblocks all day i was busting for a beer and was deeply concerned it may be all over before i got there :ohmy: Rememberd i had an esky with a few cold tinnies in it, in the back seat and then Guns N Roses went up a few more dials on the boom box and all was good :)
    Called mick on the blower as i came into Wauchoppy and got directions,walked down to the shed when i got there it sorta went all quite….you WERE talking about me you bastards :unsure: ….hmmmm…oh to be a fly on the wall :P
    TB handed me a rum and that put a smile on my dial B) Met Mal and Crash and gave the old “gday big fella” to Mick,TB and Ollie.Leaving the XR ranting behind us,Ollie and i made our way to Mooses Rancho El Relaxo.Met Moose and Mrs Moose , the little Mooseites,a swag of Dogs of all shapes and sizes and Big Jefro.After a bit of natter we finally crashed for the night in anticipation of our big adventure which was about to unfold over the next few days.Thanks for letting me crash the night Moose family. :)

    Friday and Saturdays reports will be on tomorrow night,pics and vids aswell…..

    Till then ferrets…….
