Murph dude
your getting good with that camera arnt ya.
top effort.
A Dudes view
Everything started out good.
Very humid 90% and around 25oc all good as you are riding along enjoying the breeze.Diddle led us through leaf littered single trail unravelling before us and all was good. :cheer:
10ks Into it, went down this track which was like a lost track that everyone forgot where it was, lets call it the
‘The Forgotten trail’,
Well this trail was overgrown and tight and was having fun,
then confronted by fallen trees that we had to drag bikes under,
getting a bit hot at this time.
In a gully no wind etc, :unsure:We then got to this hill. :huh:
Steep hill. :ohmy:
The kind when a bike stopped forward motion, downhill motion took over. :blink:
Well Diddle had a go got so far then came back down. :side:
Murph went up and made it look easy,
Diddle had another go and made it as well as Smurph. :cheer:My turn.
1st attempt got bike a bit out of shape and slid back down hill. :huh:
2nd attempt made it to the ‘hard bit’ Murph and Mal had ropes and dragged the husky 510 over that bit and proceeded up the hill and got to within 15 meters from top.Saying I was sapped of energy is an UNDERSTATEMENT. :ohmy:
Understatement, :ohmy: I was constantly drinking water that seemed to be making me feel no better.
I was physically smashed. :blush:
Mal motored up in style and the boys helped me up the last 15 meters.
Recovery took 20 mins at least and I wasn’t in the mood to continue on. :blink:Cause Murph and Mal helped me so much ‘they were fatigued as well :blink: so back to cars via main track.
On reflexion.
*Not the day to attempt grade 4+ ride in hot and very humid conditions.*Maybe a mud Tyre on rear may have helped.
*My fault this ride was shorten for Mal and Murph.
Live and learn Hopefully.
Bring on winter.

Quote:I have to take some of the wrap for Dude struggling in that vid. I accidentally led him astray and getting back on track was a little tricky especially in the heat. From memory we popped over a small log and then I came across another but thought the trail led to the right and Dude followed me. He did a bang up job of keeping that big bugger of a bike under control all day in that heat.Not your fault Austblue.
I was just in the ‘sheepzone’ :huh: just blindly following but when I saw the hole ‘bad memories cam flooding back’ :blink:
Not going throuht that.
must jump log.
Went bush and thats that.
Will learn from it ‘go faster through bush’.Ollie wrote:

Ollie
Thanks Ollie
Thats the reaction I was after.
A friend was around my place and I said “Hey suss out my vid of the ride”
And when my friend got to that bit she :laugh: and :laugh:Its good anit it.
Athlete that I am with the powers of recovery bordering on amazing. :huh:A dudes View
An excellent adventure was had by all. :cheer:
All the crew were good riders with a constant steady pace.
The guys were riding past obstacles as though it
was just 2nd nature and wasn’t worth a second thought .Highlights
* A small wallaby hopped in front of Austblue and somehow they didn’t collide. :ohmy:
*Austblues superman descending Razorback. :ohmy:
* Moto’s attempt ascending Razorback :blink:
* Murphs ability to link single trails together.
Had a great day
Had Fun. :cheer:
Old bulls
I recommend this ride.
Its not that hard that the average trail rider could not complete. :huh:
Im a average trail rider and Im doing this ride after night shift so get your name down.
There’s no dust. :cheer: Its all good. :laugh:Whammy dude
Love your clip very funny :laugh:
I am not a great wheelier but see murph do it all the time.
1 you need balls (be prepared to pay the price)(crash/hurt yourself)
2 you need an crowd ( to wittness your feat)
3 you need wheel grip (no splnning back wheel/control)
4 you need commitment which is the same as number 1.Have fun.
dude
Ollie dude
Could ya place me next on the reserve list,
cheers
dudeI can only live in hope
Dudes view
Had a great time :laugh:
Thats DanD for leading a pleasent and enjoyable ride.
I like the open twin track trail riding for a change lots of fun, no pressure stuff.
Would have been complete carnage if Murph was leading.
Done 130km round trip for the day.
Thanks TB and Novice for lunch and I will catch you all next time we ride.Cheers
dude.
Gee I wish I had some sunscreen for me head.
sorry moto murph made me do it
