One thing I did leave out was I jammed a few Bago single trails into the boys on the way home just for shits and giggles. The boys punted the ADV bikes through them no worries.
The reason for the QIN’s name change was that she was out of rego for a while and upon renewal they wouldn’t give the QIN plate back to John. So it is now known as the HOON.
Cont….
Ralf’s trail goes onto link up with the Old Highway that leads you down through the Doyles River State forest, all along the Old Highway single trails lead off in all directions, many of which I have ridden in the past with the Tamworth crew and some great rides came to mind as we made our way towards Knodingbull Road.
Along the old highway, Kram crashed into a little tree and knocked it over.
Not really, this was the only obstacle along the trails though.
Once we reached Knodingbull we started to make our way to Gingers Creek for lunch via Boony’s Cappachinno trail, which brings you out onto the highway 2kms west of Gingers Creek Store.
Excellent burgers were served all round and I topped up with fuel again and was surprised to see that fuel was cheaper at Gingers Creek than it was in town. Go figure?
Anyhow we then headed west on the highway for about 10kms and turned down Grassy ridge road and headed down into the Cells SCA. The drop down into the cells is steep and greasy red clay which made for entertaining antics by the boys as we skated down towards the Cells River. Once at the bottom we stopped at the Cells Hilton for a breather.
John led us on foot into the scrub a short way to witness one of the Cells Ewoks in its burrow. It was a friendly little fellow but not what I would call cute by any stretch of the imagination.
Back at the Cells Hilton I celebrated our visit by decorating the wall with an Old Bull Trail riders sticker.
We headed up out of the Cells Via Cells Jeep trail and on to Knodingbull road again. We followed Knodingbull south to Elands and Ellenborough Falls. There wasn’t near as much water going over the falls as last time Moose and I were there but the view as always was great.
From Elands It was a 24 km run across to the Comboyne Plateau, where a dingbat complete with pillion passenger pulled out on me on what looked like a Honda Goldwing or some other monsterous piece of shit. He didn’t even look before pulling out. You should have see the look in his passenger’s eyes when I just missed them! She shat herself I am sure! Two minutes later I had some other dingbat on a 250cc cruiser of some sort come straight at me on a corner!! Time to get off the tar I thought and we headed across towards Comboyne Rock. Five minutes after hitting the dirt I was again confronted with four dirt bikes coming at me with speed. Three near misses in 10 minutes WTF?
Once we got past Comboyne Rock it was plain sailing down through Bago and onto my shed for a few beers to wash down the dust. We ended up doing just shy of 300kms for the day and covered some great country and rode some great sections of road and trails. Over a few beers we all agreed that we are indeed blessed to be living here on the Mid North Coast

Happy birthday Aaron. I was thinking of you today, as we did a hot run through Knodingbull Road this arvo. Our run through there back to Maxwell’s Flat is still one of the most memorable rides I have done.
See you in Coffs.
Cheers
