    :laugh:
    Ice it is I can tell ya,,, not much sympathy here after being gone from home on what I called a “few hrs ride with some dudes” that ended being a 13 hr outing :laugh:

    Ankle is not too bad after being strapped to the hilt all day & in tight work boots, iced again this arvo, will be tender for a week or two or three :whistle: :whistle:

    It was a good day out nonetheless, only two trees left still on the trails.
    I managed to sneak back to within 10k of Laguna till I borrowed a litre of fuel from Mark. At least now I know I can make it out there & back (sort of) ;)

    Cheers

    Well, Some say that ADV riders are soft :dry:
    Check this out,
    Dean Nuttall completed the course in 7 days (14 are allowed for the route)
    7,347klms in a moving time of 80hrs 40 mins
    avg speed 91 kph
    :woohoo:

    Now that is hooting all the way,,,
    I might add that Dean is a top 10 rider in the likes of Erzbergs, Romaniacs, Aus Safari and heading for Dakar 2012 ;)

    Still a big effort I think

    :laugh: Relax, The Orange Lemon is in the shed tucked away safe & sound (no damage) just bent the rear brake lever slightly & loosened the hand guard. Fixed them on the trail & underway quickly but dropped it again later cause I couldn`t hold it up with the leg on a rough trail edge :whistle: Funny as, Choot saw it unfold & said it looked “nice & slow” :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    One thing I learnt real quick is ,,,
    The pannier bag plates save plastics real well, But F&*@ ankles real quick :)

    I will be on the beast again wed to ride to work :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: And it will still be dirty I think , that`ll teach it :P

    So the plates have entered the next prototype stage :laugh:

    Cut, sanded, drilled & fitted this arvo (silicone in between plates & racks to stop vibration),
    May need to beef up the P Clips for a better model in future, but wil suffice for now ;)

    NO WORRIES GUYS & GALS ,,,

    I will not be solo, there are a couple of options I have to choose from ;)
    I want to get some miles in (but not too many) testing out the new rack & plate system on dirt.

    Might even hook up with the ORE crew & head out to 3 ways aferall (will see how I go on the cans this evening) :laugh:

    If no other starters by 9pm I will go that way

    Ok, The guys from ORE are looking at doing it Sunday as well, head out there and maybe onto 3 Ways ,,,
    Will see where they are meeting & what time, then make my decision.
    Sounds like a good ride with some good blokes ;)

    Mark from ORE is an Old Bull as well :)
