Nice vids Jeffro. It’s always fun exploring new trails. Did you use different setting on the gopro for the first vid it appears to have a different ratio to the second one.

Its interesting you used your Tough camera for second shots. I did the same thing today with my Nikon Aw 100 (Nikons answer to Olympus Tough series). I am editing vids now and will upload tomorrow.

It was the same settings when recording but after editing I just saved it (using windows live movie maker) for computer use instead of saving it for HD playback.

St Albins Pub is booked out so I guess I will swag it in the park.

Just spoke with Flying Fish (Amy) who had minutes ago gotten off the phone from St Albans pub and had booked two rooms for friday night the 2nd of November (we are riding saturday 3rd and sunday 4th) She said that there were still two rooms free if you want to get onto it again Jeffro. You didnt book saturday night by mistake did you?

TB

I didn’t see this post earlier, sounds like I may have asked for the 3rd instead of the 2nd. I will get onto it in the morning. I better check what I booked at the Kelso as well

I used the camera they gave me for use at work when I do my inspections It’s an Olympus Tough, they are shock proof to a couple of meters for a drop and waterproof to about 10 meters.

I was really happy with the way I tied that section in together, it seemed to flow really well I thought.

Great Clip mate ,,,,

Looks like you need Lantana Mans Bro up there for a day or two to help clear out some more growth :laugh:

Thanks Eagle, thanks Aido.

I rode with just a Tshirt Friday and again on Sunday so I have skin off my arms from tree whipping as well as the fall so yeh, definately need to do some more trimming work. Even that first bit that I cleared has started to grow over again.

Yeh I am happy to team with anyone. Camping Friday night but hoping to be home Sunday, I don’t work Monday so no big deal if I don’t get there though.

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

This one I did a while back, the first 2 minutes is different to the other video but the last 2 minutes is the same area but without any different camaera angles like the first one. No HD either.

I’m booked for Saturday night, just need to sort Friday now.

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

So my ride didn’t go to plan.

I decided to just ride my local spot and work on some new sections. The new track was coming along we’ll until a front end lose due to a rut caused me to hit the deck hard. Wind knocked out of me and some very sore ribs being the resul so I laid there for a while getting my breath back.

Got back up, picked up the bike but couldn’t get it started, tried for 10 minutes then rang for a lift home.

Bike is in the shed and ribs are giving me he’ll, must be time for some painkillers in a can

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

Yeh mate still doing the 2 dayer

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

No Interest, No worries.

Will do my own thing, Ride cancelled

Putting it put there for anyone that will be passing through Newcastle on the friday before 3pm that might have a spare spot on a bike trailer :whistle:
I need the 690 carted up as I have to tow my van up on the friday evening ,,,,
Needless to say, I would need the 690 returned to Newy as well :laugh:

I am willing to throw in some $$$ to help with fuel if needed

????

I will cart it up and back for you Eagle. It’s the least I can do after binning it on your inaugural ride last year :blush:

Will sort something out closer to the date.

On another note, I had the front wheel off the WR today and thought I had better check the wheel bearings while I had it there. Checked the left side and it was a bit notchy but when I checked the right side I couldn’t even turn it. :ohmy: New wheel bearings all round this weekend me thinks.

May pull the forks and shock out and get them serviced too ready for Coffs
