Glad to see you’re ok DJ. Good to see the OldBulls spirt kick into gear and get ya all sorted out mate. A little bit of a rest mate and you’ll be back out to do it all again. :cheer:

[mikeMember]

Yes I always like to remember. I talk about it with my two sons aswell so they can understand what the diggers went through. It make me heaps proud to say and be an Australian.

[mikeMember]

Yeah Axel it was good to get back out there. The new boots need to get nice and worn in still but i just took it all pretty easy .

Will do Murph. Catch ya on a ride soon mate.

My bro inlaw just brought a 07 ktm 450 for $5000 with about 6mths rego. It goes nice and revs out real good. He’s since binned it and stuffed his foot but that’s another story:laugh:

Good on him Mick… go the XR. There’s gotta be a joke in there somewhere about a pommy backpacker who bought an XR.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[mikeMember]

I had a nice morning in the bush with the wife and kids. The boys were hanging out for a ride too. Here’s a pic of them.:laugh:

[mikeMember]

You should all get an orange 2banger. It solves all ya problems:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[mikeMember]

Yeah they are unreliable sometimes but the alternative now is DRZ . That is why they are the most popular dirt bike at present.[/quote]

I hear ya Aaron
Lets hope the bike builders are paying attention and start building better engines. Nothing wrong with the drz though. They may not be as quick as some but they are damn good trail bikes.

[mikeMember]

It’s turning into a monster:laugh: . The overseas stats are interesting too. Heaps of people love trailbike riding.

[mikeMember]

You should get a bike that best suits your needs and ride as many as possible like TB said. I like the bigger bikes because i like a bit of grunt and they are nice and playful but I know i can’t ride em as fast as a 250 in the tight stuffB) Overall they suit me though. I weigh over hundred kilos also. As for brands I reckon they are all very good these days except for chinese ones.:laugh: You’ve got me dreamin about new bikes now:woohoo:

Catch ya’s on the trails.

I was thinking about this a bit more last night. Most riders that can ride from home really don’t need to have one cause they can mostly go for a ride whenever they want. But someone who has to trailer their bike to a ride may be more inclined to use a gps so their can come back. I would’nt think of goin on a ride with some fellas at Bathurst for example and gps the tracks because if i went back there I’d just go riding with same fellas:) Same for OldBull rides. If I had one maybe I’d use it if i got lost to help get back on track/home but I’m in no hurry as managed ok so far.
