    just FYI guys we rode Coffs with lunch at Glenreagh a few weeks back and there did not appear to be any fuel there. Closest would be down the road a BaNana Glen.

    just a heads up to keep in mind…… if you do know of fuel at Glenreagh don’t hesitate to let us know!

    Just like to say thanks to your HIGHNESS for organising the fantastic weather we experienced yesterday along with all the fantastic new single line that has obviously been unmolested for some time. It has to be the best days ride i’ve had in this area…..ever. Anyone coming up for the November ride should be very happy indeed.

    All in all a very plesant day. Tdriver was not the last to be ready to go…… everyone was on the pace all day……..when the leader laid down everyone behind him followed suit…… and a few DRZ electrical problems, no surprise to some of the DR riders………. as Corey pointed out no KTM’s which is very rare….. and some pretty cool vids.

    Thanks to the crew on the day it was one of the best

    My condolences to Tony’s family and friends.

    He was a great bloke who wrote well, loved a laugh and wasnt’ afraid to speak his mind.

    I’d met him on several occasions since i started riding and he was always good for a laugh a few tips and a very quick tongue to get a laugh.

    Will be much missed from the sport, he bought so much to the sport and industry.

    RIP TK

    i definatley know a few ‘by their riding styles’ that would benefit from attending a session.

    i reckon i could get at least 6-10 together in the Taree area.

    more info would be great.

    Shell :P

    Here is an appropriately named trail that is up near Coffs Harbour…even if the spelling is a little bit wrong. Apparently it is all over grown and sometimes hard to find,it is slippery as,it brings blokes undone, as it turns out it is a bit of a C#*T really Ha ha ha ha
    Although they say it is much more fun if the bush has been cleared and once you have it mastered it can be very good riding. callitris.jpg

    There is a rumour going around the lady groups that very few men can find it let alone ride it :laugh: :woohoo: :laugh: :woohoo: :laugh: :woohoo: 😆

    Good to see you in the pub on saturday RCHonda and I am glad you have no serious injuries. When I saw you your arm looked massive so I can only imagine now what it looks like.
    PM when you are ready to ride and I will put on a locals day to make up for the loops you missed. I am sure I can talk TDriver, MThicket and Nickj into it.

    Get well soon mate.

    STM

    So where do i sign? :) Gee it really is tough being a local in this area :woohoo: :woohoo:

    Congratulations boys for organising what sounds like an awesome weekend riding in the Old Bulls spirit.

    Work and a Christmas party kept me away on Saturday :angry: and by the looks of things i missed out on all the action :( (RC i hope your arm gets better soon and there’s not too much time off the bike, and how cool are the shots of the Widow maker. there was ALOT of testicular fortitude on Saturday)

    It was probably handy i was hungover on Sunday morning cause when the few old bulls did surface they looked how i felt :X :X :X and :X

    The first hour was the hardest with a few tense moments lying in a mud bath on the ground :whistle: and a few swear words even i’ve not heard before on a log crossing, but sooner or later all those fumes kicked in and IT WAS AWESOME :woohoo:

    You guys really did get fed the cream on Friday and Saturday.

    Well done to all that chucked in the quick fill that’s fantastic. Good to see the Mayor of Wauchopians and Moose and meet a few faces to go with the names. I am looking forward to next run in creamy coffs country.

    Thanks Shell

    in reply to: beach holidays #191144

    Birubi Beach is good as they have a pretty safe swimming beach for the little ones.

    also have a look at http://www.onemilebeach.com.au

    they have an awesome pool and playground area for hte kids, and you are only 10mins drive from Nelson Bay.

    have a good time and make sure you take them to the toboggan run near Salamander Bay.

    in reply to: The Old Bull Charity Fast Fill #191140

    Suck it up you big girl!! i’m a little tougher then that. No one else sledges you on your incredible bad sense of humour (crap i forgot you are a moderator now!)

    tell me do we get one of those kick arse sticker if we attend (and complete) the Coffs ride???

    in reply to: The Old Bull Charity Fast Fill #191132

    It’s actually quite relevent to me STM :huh:

    I may not have balls (sometimes you may argue :P ) but i lost my old man to advanced stage protate cancer a few years back :(

    I’m all for the fast fill bucket perhaps a gold coin every time you drop the bike on a weekend or witness someone else dropping it!!

    BTW all you blokes go and get the prick test. It could save your life.

    Widowmaker at Coffs (STM’s last 2 photos) would have to be up there on the top 5 worst! Will be great to see some photos from the Coffs weekend of those with the testicular fortitude!

    Pinapinga on the south west side of the Cells is a monster 2km of rocky rutted up hill, that seems to keep going and going and going. No photos as i am usually swearing and picking up my bike when i visit it. :laugh:

    in reply to: WANTED DRZ400 #189817

    After teaching 3 of my ex’s to ride (you blokes are not the only ones who have to suffer through pouting and debilitating Thumb print ‘injuries’ in the pursuit of a weekend of single line) the easiest solution was to teach them how to ride hence doubling the amount of riding time i get. 1. Teaching them 2. riding with others. Also it is the best sport you can do with your partner as you don’t have to talk to them for most of the day and if they didn’t wash up/clothes on line etc you can fill them in.

    Fester – i will not be funding said purchase.
    Mick – once again i have found the love of my life
    STM – thank you for valiently standing in my defence ps it is not a farm bike. as stated by NickJ they are a great allrounder for unco people to start on :laugh:

    thanks for the help guys. I have lined up two to look at next weekend.

    Shell :)
