Well I met with the guys at Westy and shortly after the Murphsberg crew showed up, after some chit chat we went our seperate ways, Murphs group doing the hardcore enduro loop and our group getting into some hardcore adventure riding. We made our way from Westy to Freemans waterhole via some firetrail and twin trail where the Tenere riders handled it with ease (well it looked like it anyway, Nick was offering his to anyone that might want a go at one stage). From Freemans we headed up the road and back into the bush and thats when things got really interesting. With TB leading we were following a track that got narrower and rougher at every turn with Nick having a little lay down on tricky little hill. Eventually the track opened out again and we comntinued on a pretty decent pace considereing the weight of the big bikes.
With Beer o’clock calling I split from the group as they turned and headed for the letter A and started to make my way home. I was tossing up whether to go on the tar or the dirt and desided that as my riding season is drawing to an end I had better hit the dirt. Ans so it was that I went in just near the freemans roundabout and headed up the hill only to take a wrong turn and come out at the Gap :blush: . I decided that I didn’t want to do that section again so headed on the tar back in to Frreman’s then headed towards the freeway before turning back into the bush where we had come out on the way there. From there it was over sugarloaf where a rider waved me down, he was only a young kid and had lost his group and was pretty concerned. I told him I had seen a guy sitting on a corner back further and I could have a look for him if he liked which he was grateful for. With that I headed back but the other rider was gone so I turned around again only to find the young fella was gone. (Your welcome mate, no problem at all :angry: )
From there I headed into Stockrington along some tracks I hadn’t done for a while and was having a great time until just before the top of a fairly ticky hill climb my right foot struck a stump or something, not sure what it was and didn’t want to stop and have a look so with a great deal of pain I continued on making my way home the shortest way I could find. The vibration from the bike weren’t helping either and when I got home and took my boot off I found this (see attachments).
Must have been bad, I skipped the beers at my mates place to go home and ice it before I had even seen it :laugh: :laugh: , that nail isn’t gonna make it.
