Hey KTM@1…. good to hear the knee is recovering :unsure: I’m up for a day ride that weekend but can’t do an overnighter as it’s my older brothers 50th birthday party on Saturday night 👿 …… suspect I’ll be bit under the weather on Sunday morning :sick: so Saturday ride sounds perfect. If you guys do an overnighter I can pull out somewhere in the late afternoon and head back home. Happy to start early to get in most of the day. The bike should be back together by then.

Take it easy on the road ride…. try not to get toooo bored (ha ha).

Hey Cindytalk….

We do lots of Adv rides up that way so if you get the urge to cruise rather than stress your more than welcome to join us….

Its hard to comprehend the devastation that occurred on the MotoGP tonight and the pain its causing to the family, race mate and friends. Nothing can change what happened all we can do is celebrate a great rider and learn from the experience. It’s another reminder to us all that our passions can bring this sort of outcome but its important to live life to the fullest and make sure our loved ones know how we feel…. RIP Marco

Bit the bullet today and ordered a Spot 2 from Steve at ADV MOTO
Great service, will be shipped same day as usual, so should have it in a day or two.

May call on some of our Spot experts to help set it up when they return from the desert :laugh:
At least the missus is gonna be a tad happier when I go out, now she can keep tabs on me :unsure: :whistle: :laugh:

Hey Eagle… good news…. happy to help you set it up… mine works perfectly…

The going must be good as they have done some miles since setting out

Hey GavB and Tryhard,

Love your RR. It makes my ride on Sunday look tame compared to yours. Maybe a snorkel would have been another accessory to take on the ride that day…..

Hoping the rain stays away this weekend. Got a two day ride to Coolah this weekend….. :unsure:

Hey Mallee,

Congrats on the bike…. Most of the OBT Adv riders are heading to Cameron’s Corner that weekend but I’m in for Wyangla Dam.

If you are doing it and need somewhere to crash Friday night, I have a spare room if you want. It will take us about 25mins to get to the start point on Saturday. The offer is there…

Sounds like we need to get that new bike of yours DIRTY……..

I see the 230 has made a comeback of sorts Kat ???
Read the thread on yesterdays run on ORE too :whistle: You made it up Bowmans, way to go

You guys are all mad, out there riding today !!! I did think about it (for 30 seconds) :silly: Then stayed inside servicing and cleaning the car :whistle:

Yes Eagle…. I got some single trailriding in yesterday that caused the body to ache last night…. but felt good. We went past your ‘special’ corner…. you skid marks were still there!!!

That’s your problem Eagle….. you thought about it…….if I thought about it I too I would have been rugged up on the lounge watching videos… but today I got to test my mental ability of saying “I’m not cold”… about a million times…… and got to work on my mud sliding skills.

Hey guys…. I saw you out there enjoying the weather !!!!….. We passed you as you guys were heading south towards Bucketty. You were the only other crazy idiots that we passed all day. TB .. you would have noticed two Honda bikes flying by…. I was on the 230 and a mate was on my XR400…(his Tenere had steering head problems and in getting fixed) so I dragged him out. We were wet at about 30sec from leaving home. We too enjoyed a lunch at Wollembi Pub then headed into the Watagan’s to play in some mud….. great day….. no cars on roads, no 4WD on firetrails, no trailbikes out racing around…… we had the Watagan’s to ourselves… what more could a girl want!!!.. anyway…. got bit wet but hot shower and rum/coke fixed that… all up a great day on the bike….
