yes, it gets you in once you get the gist of it. The next level is to require the naming of the posted song before being allowed to post another,but let it run as is for a bit.is this bloke a relative?
better put in a report…
awoke to near perfect weather..great..9 riders started then we picked up 1 more top of Wangi hill.. that made 10 and we were away……..the tracks were damp, water holes filled after recent rains , it was great. Out to Awaba via our usual tracks and into our first single trail.We wound our way to the top of Lakes MX track without incident.Over the road and into the “valley of clay” . greasy and watching our step all made it thru , the rocky hill climb saw my bike stepping out bigtime and nearly cleaning up Murph in the process.
Over into the sugarloaf area and its wet ,greasy to start with but as we climbed the trail was beatifully damp.
All climbed K9 first go with some impressive wheelies at the top ,(I thought I was filming this but helmet-cam had shut down :angry: )
Finishing this single loop and into the next saw us all locked up and sliding to the bottom of the gully :silly:
The climb out was good until the last bit of a climb challenged some.. a well needed breather was then had.
The next single was sweet with the only issue being a couple of duoble takes at a small greasy hill with the boggy approach claiming a couple of bikes ( me included)big climb at the end and another rest.last bit of single then fire trail to the gap for lunch. Hamburger
the Arvo saw us tackle the south side of the gap with it being muddy,greasy,rocky
The trouble with leading is that you get to test the waters(or mudholes)If you get it wrong at least everone else knows where NOT to go..see Murphs Photo :ohmy:
after our sigles we split into 2 groups – maniacs and sensibles. Maniacs went with Murph to tackle the Amazon.
The rest of us continued on with a plan to meet Murph and Co at the bangalow hut.
My group made it event free and waited with the leeches, enjoying mandarines off an old tree there..surprisingly sweet.Sick of waiting and getting late we left Murph anote and headed for home , event free. OLd Bloke looked shagged.Murph and co arrived home about 50 mins after..
Big thanks to all who rode, big thanks to Dude and Murph for sweeping, although with all riders moving along at about the same pace and ability they probably didnt have too hard a time..except for the Amazon
overall , good weather,good trails,good blokes = a bloody great ride..P.S – some video to come later.
