I did 180k this morning,,,
Left home 5.30 before the sun was up & home before 9
Just started to warm up the last 10 k
I can see how a cool vest would be good on longer days though :whistle:
Lefty wrote:Yeah it should be great to see it unfold. Now that the 13km SS warm up is finished they can get into tomorrow with a 242km SS. :woohoo:There is only 5sec between Smith and Fish and a further 5sec back to Grabbo
Can’t wait for tomorrows results it should be a ripper.
Best of luck to all the Aussies and ride safe.
And Newy Boy Troy O Connor 5 secs behind Grabbo
Great solid start for the guys, good to have an Aussie group close together or tomorrows stage ,,,Go Boys Go !!!
:laugh:
Risky Business leaving a ten there this week mate :whistle:I spoke to TB about his the other night and the lengths they have gone to to get the required part that is holding them up is pretty big ,, but they are the two guys that would be able to pull it off
Good choice getting Nick to give your ride the Teknik Treatment, she will be a diferent machine on her return

If he doesnt make it guys,and I dont have a ride buddy,room is fully paid for already be my guest my treat.
Dont want to ruin anyones ride weekend dragging me along 😆 On that note if anyones going for a day ride I would like to tag along,just too see if nothing else how far behind, my riding ability is. :unsure:
You haven`t seen me paddle the 690 around yet mate :laugh:
You`ll be fine I reckon, as stated in post 1 it is not a race, just a bunch of blokes following the tracks left by TB & PTW (half of which will be skidmarks left by PTW anyway)Plenty of time to do the distance and see some great places along the way :woohoo:
