Looks a bit front heavy……………..

Too much time and effort when Jarvis can ride a 1 wheel drive straight up cliffs anyway.

Matt Phillips is a pretty loose unit on a bike, if he stays upright for the next 4 days he should be able to move up the ranks. First Jap bike overall too.

Looks like Strang and Price are riding stock KTM 6 days, with their own suspension no doubt.

The Frenchy Frogs are dominating.

I got a neck scratch by a vine of some sort on last weekends ride at Bello, not as good as that Scotty but still left a mark. Somehow got one on my forehead between the helmet and goggles too.

It scares you more than anything when you feel it ripping across your neck.

Me too

I have had about 10 or 15 different types of goggles and lenses, at the moment I’m using Scott Hustle (best fit) and Spy (look stylish not as good a fit) they both have the nose guard which I don’t think I would ride without now.

I like clear, yellow and double lenses for wet conditions.

Maybe Toby can do what the big goon David Knight couldn’t do and beat the 2 strokes in the E3 class.

Jess Gardiner is killing it in 2nd place in the womens race.

My mojo was ok just going too hard.

The ghosty down the hill was pure style. (when riding with Ev you have to adopt some of his riding style and techniques)

Still got most of the way up the hardest hill whilst everyone else was grovelling around down at the bottom. Still have to go back and conquer that sucker. 👿

After conquering 4 mile hill on Saturday morning and attempting to reach a mythical book you can sign after making it to the top of another hill (Devo I think its called) Ev had some rear brake trouble. We did a bit more riding, nice and slow down hill for Ev with no rear brake, then decided the group would split up, with Ev and I going to fix the brakes and the other 3 doing some more trails before going back to the cars.

Got the brakes sorted and Ev and I got back out and did some more crazy hills and awesome single trail.

Sunday was just Ev and I riding south of Macksville, found a couple of talcum powder hills, 1 was hard and the other 2 we gave up on (very unlike Ev to give up :huh: )

We smashed out an awesome days riding with heaps of overgrown and under used single track plus some racing and wheelstands on nice grippy winding fire trails.

Got some fresh damage on the Berg which seemed to amuse Ev (reckons it will soon be looking like his WR). As usual riding to close behind when a stick flicked up and pierced a huge hole in my seat (lucky it wasn’t my leg or balls :ohmy: ). Had a heap of stacks on the Saturday too which also seemed to amuse Ev.

Just fill er up and meet at the start place, surely the KLX will have enough.

ps. I have no idea where we are going or how many kms it will be

[Matt BakerMember]

“Cabin Drunkasfuck” no Hondas or Tamworths allowed (except good looking blondes from Tamworth)

[Matt BakerMember]

Looks like its going to be nice weather for a ride.

Got new tyres and I’m ready to roost. :woohoo:

[Matt BakerMember]

Having four gorgeous blondes walking around will be nice but not having Snowy there will be nicer :laugh:

Thats why they have NEVER won it Actually KTM built the 690 and used all their Dakar guns a few years back to try and win it. Got their arse kicked, tried again the next year got 3rd and havent been seen since :laugh: Grabbo’s wasnt a factory effort I believe

TB

Should have had Eagle on the 690

[Matt BakerMember]

Toby Price and Ben Grabham in a team would be hard to beat, whatever they were riding.
