Last report I got was that the boys managed to get out, although it was pretty sketchy.

I was also talking to Bollocks and he mentioned that the service vehicle was all over the place like a mad womans…………..
The last thing I heard from him was “oh shit here comes the mother of all mud holes,gotta go….beep beeep beep beeep.” :laugh:

Just got off the phone from the boys,They are as we speak ,planning “The Great Escape” they got hammered by the weather last night and need to get out of where they are in a hurry. TB said that is so slippery, Moose fell arse over head just walking to his bike.

They still sound in good spirits and are having fun.

Their only option now is to head back to Broken Hill and decide then, what to do.

Looks good!!! So does the country in the background, looks a lot like around these parts. I suppose it has been a while since you’ve seen it that green down your way.

[Mick DMember]

how good is technology now days?? I was impressed with the fact we could watch the ride unfold via the spot tracker, now we have Krusty doing live ride reports from a tent in the middle of Kickatinalong :laugh:

Well done boys, here’s hoping the weather gods are kind to you. Enjoy the rest of the ride.

Not long ago got a call from TB, they are back at Menindee lakes and have pulled up stumps for the arvo and are into the cans whilst the Kitchen girl (AKA Bollocks) is preparing yearling steak and veges with craw bobs for dessert.

TB said that the run today would have to be in his top 3 rides ever and has scored it 9.5 out of 10.

He also said that Burple badly needed an oil change last night but Moose chose to go to the pub instead. Gotta love XR’s

:laugh:

Where did you get it done?? My first one was a pattela graft at our local hospital in Port Macquarie, it lasted less than a year before I was at North Sydney sports medicine to get it done again at Castlecraig in Nth Sydney.In and out in less tha 24hrs with no brace. I was up and about less than 10hrs after the op, the doctor said he loved smokers as they are always the first out of bed and getting about. :blush:

Keep the pics to yourself mate :X THat sort of thing grosses me out. I have had two ACL recons, one time THey asked me whether I wanted a video of the operation, My response went something like “F*$* Off why would I want that??” When I had mine done for the second time I had a hamstring graft as well and it still shits me and still isn’t right. Why did you get it done again, did it come undone or something?? No doubt, sometime down the track I will need a full knee replacement.

The boys have just arrived at Broken Hill after what was described as the best riding so far.High speed twin trail that had TB pretty excited.

No prizes for guessing what type of establishment they rang from in Broken Hill :laugh:

They are going to get Jeffro’s foot pegs fixed proper in Broken Hill then head onto Silverton, then possibly head north to avoid the approaching adverse weather conditions.

The boys are all in high spirits and are having a ball by the sounds of it.

Just got off the phone from a dejected TB. Unfortunatly it rained “Like forty bastards” last night and the boys have had to make the decision to abort their plans of going to Camerons Corner. It was reported that Moose woke up with a swimming pool in his tent and he had to wring out his riding gear for today. They are now waiting back at Yunta, hoping that the service vehicle can make it back there through the mud. The amended trip will now include a 200km blacktop run to Broken Hill and then onto Silverton, where they have booked a bunk house and are going to keep drinking untill they get locked up.

Apparently Boony,they have decided that it is all your fault. :laugh:
