Snow near sunny corner, I didn’t expect that :blink:
TBs outfit to combat the cold, I had a good laugh at this look
Really glad to hear your in for this one Corey, as I’m leading one of the loops you won’t have to worry about being mid pack, I know you’ll be hot on MY tail !!
My ride started with a surprisingly quick drive from Yamba to Blaxland via a stop over a a cousins in Newcastle. I haven’t been further south than Wauchope in 10 years and the highway was great.
I arrived at Blaxland early Saturday morning and found TBs place no worries, we got some brekky and started getting our gear sorted ready for Gary to pick up.
We had a ride to Suttos and I bought some Dri rider rallyx pants that proved to be a great buy, then we had a few ales and waited for Krusty.
Krusty arrived sporting the ‘Bogan Biker’ look,
I was surpized Krusty kept up this look all week :laugh: and check out the Fox extreme adventure riders sandels
Hardcore Moose arrived too and after a quick fuel tank change everyone was set.
Salina is an absolute legend and gave me great feeds all day and a comfy bed for the night, although we where all up and rearing to go by 4 am.The ride from TBs to Condo was awesome although the wet road and fog in the dark over Mt. Victoria whilst running new knobbies was by far the most terrifying part of the whole trip.
The scenery to Bathurst with Mal5.1 and Donna was mind blowing, green rolling hills with wildlife coming to see TB from far and wide attracted by his shoo roos :laugh:After a good brekky we headed on dirt roads with frozen peas as a surface through Orange where the peas turned to frozen Brussels and into Trundle to meet Jeffro.
We rolled into Condo to see Gary and Boulder beers in hand and not long after Mickp , lotsa and Bollocks arrived.
Greg the publican was a top bloke and cooked a good feed for us all then it was time to get some Kip, tomorrow it starts to get serious.
More to come….
Thanks for all your concern, but STM was right it’s just a soft pommie whinging about a little splinter :laugh:
I had surgery yesturday but the doctor couldn’t get the peice of sleeper out as it was wedged under the tendon ( this explains my slight discomfort on the ride :blink: )
I went to a foot surgeon today who after digging down about an inch managed to get the large peice out. He also had a good scrape around and found 2 more pieces floating around.
Anyway I’m home drinking a beer now and alls good !!
Here’s a pic after the first op!! ( I’ll never foot model again :unsure: ! :laugh: )
