    I’ll be getting one of these. I used TBs for pratice before the 4 day and duriong the event and they make changing the tyre so much easier.

    And these ones are black which will save me painting it.. :laugh:

    No the Husky wont be going. Did some damage to the forks and they are in getting fixed.

    The Sherco will be making a special guest appearance. :)

    I don’t have a chainsaw that works either. :(

    I was out at Sofala Gaol for lunch on Saturday guys. :) Highly recommended if your out that way. Just let me know so Donna and I can come.

    There was water going over the causeway where we will be camping. :) We then pre run part of the dual sport route back to dark Corner. Might do the other part on the weekend if I get time.

    What sort of bikes are going on the dual sport route?

    We want to make it interesting and maybe slightly challenging although the route out to Capertee has a couple of interesting bits.

    Sounds like a typical murphsberg mate. Did you get any pics?

    How did the back hold up?

    Good stuff Eagle.

    I’m sure we’ll hear all about when the ‘Turkeys’ come out to play. :laugh:

    Sounds like a ture murphsberg if no one could make it up one of his hills first go.

    We have Husky dealer just down the road at Morriset. Can I help in any way??? Maybe I could check and see if they have one??? What model and size is she??? Let me know, only to happy to help out :)

    On another note I will shout a beer at the end of the ride to anyone who can top out on our little widow maker on their first attempt :woohoo: :woohoo: I won’t say how many times Tim and I had a go at it before we nailed it :silly: ;) We have made an easier route up the hill for those who are not as keen :) Just a little warning that the easier version pops out pretty close to Wangi Rd, so be careful :ohmy: :woohoo: :woohoo:

    Hoping my back will improve after another nights sleep (still aching a bit) All will be good :woohoo:

    Cheers

    Donna and I are about to get on the beemer and go for lunch somewhere. :woohoo:

    OK calm down you lot. No XR for me. I like the bikes I have.

    Chicken – you worry me mate. If I ever did get an XR, I’m not telling you about or I’ll get dipped in warm 12 month old oil staright from your XR. t1463.gif

    I have been using the scorpian xtra on the back for a while now and have had no real issues. Only that when the tread gets low they seem to lose traction easier. But I turn them around for a new sharp edge and there fine for another few hundred kms. I like the high profile of the rears, it keeps pinch flats to a minimum.

    I used the mid soft scorpian front for the 4 day and leading up to the event and they performed really well. In the sharp rocky stuff you lose a few knobs but the bike always went where I pointed it. I had a scorpian xtra on the front just before the 4 day and felt good too. It handled the rocky suff better and I will probably use them from now on.

    Kram – I’m converted on the mousses. They give you more confidence riding in rocky sections and you find youself ridng faster with more balance. I have dented my rim a few times though because you just don’t care what you hit.

    TB – Medogrockets flat was before he put goo in the tyres. It was part of his 10min work period on the start of day 2.

    Nice looking horse Capt. I assume it takes a lot of skill to get to that stage of horse riding.
    Are you part of the jousting team that goes around to shows? I may have seen you at a party in Bathurst a couple of months ago. It was a great show and very informative of the good old days.

    And you look like you should be flying an aircraft not rinding the CX500. :laugh:

    It saddens me greatly to tell one and all Bollocks is out of this ride. He has come up with the most lame arse excuse to get out of a ride I have heard since Moto used the I am washing my hair excuse :P

    The problem is we will now have no Birthday cake for the 2nd birthday of our site :( (That of course being the only reason we were letting Bollocks the baker come along) So we will need one and all to drink a cake as such now for the celebration

    Sorry to hear that Bol. You would’ve enjoyed the ride mate.
