I think Amy is next in line Wolfie but I am sure alison would be happy to hear from you.

Should have them in plenty of time for the Aug Nav ride.

Shoot her an email from the website. Make sure you address it to Mrs Squiggle so she knows your an old bull, she loves that name

Hey Squiggle,
Mrs Squiggle has watched a few of the vids you don’t share and knows a little about your riding skills I would say

Moo

Yeah, it was supposed to say “The God of all bike riders” …… but the truth got out

And she drank all the gentleman jack ..

[Shane CosgroveMember]

a little sneak peak of the start made today on the TB project…. early early days and mrs squiggle gets a bit cranky if I get too carried away with early pics because things can change if there is an “Artists Moment”.

Yeh! neet vid there Mr Squiggle,,,It must be great to be able to have a rip and a laugh with yu yong blokes. :cheer:
My bloke rides as well,,,but lives 4000 k’s away.
Good stuff.
Cheers Teza.

Thats no good at all Teza, Ill have to shout you a beer at the next one in sympathy. Old Bulls makes a pretty good surrogate if you ask me so at least you have a top bunch of like minded hooligans and bogans to ride with and make you feel better. I am trying to sort through the alchohol induced fog that is my memory of the weekend but pretty sure we didnt catch up. Next time.

Great Vid Squiggle, I to have a teenage son that rounds me up now. He was there on the weekend and had a ball. It is a great location were we can legally do some trail riding with our young blokes.
Cheers.

Thank mick, its good to keep em keen and we are starting to make noises about sunny corner already

I have been informed by the powers at be that my roosts are simply not good enough so this may be another opportunity to work on that technique, I think the young bloke has some slightly different ideas. Good luck to him I say!

Next year we might have to setup some generation relays and see if these young blokes are any good, now where is my tool kit 👿

[Shane CosgroveMember]

Great Weekend, the boys and I had a ball.

The squiggle crew got up there Friday night and setup in the dark so we were good to go Saturday morning. Had a couple of minor issues with the young blokes suspension that we fixed during the lunch break on Saturday and after some playing with his clickers he was able to keep the thing in a straight line

The rear brake on my 300 was set to goon mode thanks to some 2 smoker wheelie practice from a few month previous I forgot about so I couldnt stand up and use the rear brake at the same time for all of saturday, killer over 5 laps of that downhill. Finally got it adjusted Sunday morning. By then my arse felt like jailbait

Great trails and the auction was a real highlight, great nights entertainment watching Bollocks work his magic and it might have been the alcohol but that whole night was funny as hell.

My young bloke is still complaining about sore legs etc so the riding was great too. Great event and looking forward the the next one.

Riding with two teenagers was excellent fun and we had our own catch phrase for making a pass for the weekend.

Here are some highlights of how to deal with cocky teenagers on the trail. Language warning … sorry (again). We had great fun putting this footage together last night so hopefully someone gets a kick out of it.

Make sure you run it in 720 or 1080P

Arrrr memories, thanks for the flash back. At least you didn’t have footage of me cartwheeling it down the road, have you?

Unfortunately no, that would have been the most spectacular crash in the video archives if I did, very memorable.

Was a great weekend and looking at the August ride TB has planned we may even end up on that very same single, fingers crossed it was a great trail, flipping GS aside

Talked to alison tonight wookie about painting it up after getting inspired by some of the project bikes on the last ride. Wont be ready for August ride but am seriously thinking about theme from the Portland to Dakar youtube video . Give this a watch if you have not already seen it. Get a beer first, it goes for a while.

An XR is hardly a chore, I dont suppose you have a transalp with tourances on it tucked away in the shed do you boony . And this was looking soooo promosing. Not even half a lap? Is this the same red blooded aussie icon that posted the harden up nundle style ride report

I might have to sponser STM’s lap on the poker run , how long is that run anyway?

Squiggle throw 50 at Eagle to do a postie lap :cheer: :laugh: :laugh: I am already sponsoring STM’s lap, but Eagle will be worth money :woohoo:

TB

BTW

Lap 1 – STM $70 (TB & PTW)
Lap 2 – Trailrraider $50 (Trailraider)
Lap 3 – Squiggle $50 (Eagle – Drift that bitch!!)
