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 2012Still 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 quickI 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
Was a good day, long day, out with some othere blokes so I will link to the RR when Mark is finished it.Only thing I will post on here tonite is,,,,,
Don`t ring me for a ride next week :unsure:

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[attachment=2698]30072011554.jpg[/attachment]
:laugh:
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
CHEERS
Stuff it, I`ve been at work since 4.30am (had 3 hrs sleep last night) Off to soccer for the arvo now :whistle:
Be at Freemans tomorrow at 8am and we will ride up that way somewhere (might get lost but it will be fun) :laugh: :whistle:
May bump into Mark & co from ORE out there somewhere, but they are leaving earlier & riding further out,,,Over & Out till later this evening
Seeing Bollocks isn`t around,,, I found you a Cake for the Cowpatt`s Birdy :woohoo:
It`s a bit sad , not as good as Bollocks would make, but at least I tried :whistle: :laugh:CHEERS PATT
