Thanks for the info Marty, see you up there :cheer:

[RachMember]

I have entered this, a friend said it is meant to be fun.

Haven’t found much info about it other then how to enter …. Someone said you start a minute apart in groups of five? Is it a race?

[RachMember]

Hope you had a good one! :laugh:

I got a pair last week and did my first ride with them on Saturday, I couldn’t actually feel them and found myself leaning back so that I could.

On the Sunday ride I realised they weren’t all the way forward and once adjusted they definatley felt better but i think i need to get the extension arm to move them forward a bit more.

It seems to me they are most helpful when at speed. Will be interesting to see what they are like once I get the extension.

Thanks Kevdog.

I was lucky enough to catch up with Adam and Jeffro on a ride on Saturday, was a great ride so I am looking forward to this one

Great report Kat, keep them coming, come where is part 2

I have to go to Cessnock this saturday morning, I can take my bike trailer up and know the area (lived there for 3 years) I also will be returning to Blaxland where I live as does Old Girl if she would like her bike recovered and bought home?

TB

Good luck tomorrow with the bike retrieval …….. hopefully it has dried out a bit over the last couple of days.

Thanks Kat and Mick for organizing a fun day and nicely done pressing ahead despite the crap weather. There were some great tracks on offer.

So some moments:

– those woops full of water ….. About 20 in a row how good were they?!?!?! :woohoo: :woohoo:

– Turning off the tar and those first 100metres the bike was all over the place I was thinking whoaaa she’s slippery alright, I actually think that first bit was the most slippery part

– old girl after busting her knee still jumping off quick as in the mud to help the next person pick up their bike even though she was sliding all over the place can’t have felt good on the knee! (seriously you are going to have to change your name oldgirl just isnt right!)

– Mick fixing/hot wiring bikes …. It’s like riding with MacGyver I reckon you could fix a bike with a teaspoon in the middle of nowhere

– Whiskey your a champ for offering to be pillioned – can’t be very comfy in that terrain

– Alyssa you are the most prepared person I have ever met! I am sticking close to you

– Steve your a sport letting me work on my roosting target practice …. But to be fair I did let you ride my bike and then you were all how awesome are KTM’s??? (it’s my story so I’ll tell it how I like )

– that bad moment when I realize I haven’t hit the deck yet then sure enough 5 min later I am trying to wash my bike in puddle :blush: … Thanks Mick and Steve for the CPR you did on my bike!

Of course at the pub that night after a few fine wines the puddles got deeper and rocks got bigger ….. But it really was slippery …. Just quietly i am pretty sure i saw just about everyone drop their bikes at least once :whistle: …

Was great to meet some new faces and catch up with some old ones, thanks again Kat and Mick for organsing a top day.

[RachMember]

Bugger was keen to enter this had just lined up a group then saw it was sold out

Any other events similar to this on the horizon i should keep an eye out for?

[RachMember]

Ok, bike got the green light! Looking forward to the weekend 😆 pretty impressive they were able to straighten my radiator it was bad …… Wish I had taken a picture …. Dodged a bullet on that one – new ones are $$$$$

[RachMember]

Alyssa just tell him you have to stay at the pub with me!!! That you dont even want to but really what can you do!!

My bike is booked in for a little day spa on Thursday so hopefully it is given the green light before the weekend! (I shouldnt have gone on that last ride before I got my rad guards … now my radiator is all wavey like the ocean :huh: )

I will be bummed if i cant make it

[RachMember]

Well rad guards didnt arive in time for weekend but I noticed one is bent so I will have to get that sorted first anyway.

Eagle thanks for the tips I will definately look into some of your suggestions.

I took the back tyre off and took it to mca Auburn today to get it changed … yes I was going to cheat and have them do it….. but when I got down there they said they dont do it on a Sunday :angry: would have been nice if they told me that on the phone!! :angry: :angry:

But as I keen to ride tommorrow I ended up getting a friend to help me change it this afternoon ….. Huskybloke … i reckon changing a tyre is a crap job anywhere never mind out on the track !! :S that is HARD AS!!

[RachMember]

Was down there last weekend .. the yogi bears were there they were pretty good though – just said that we shouldnt ride any single trails and matched our bike rego to our car rego ……we put our hands on our hearts and said we dont do single trails and no dramas :whistle:

[RachMember]

Ahhhh RAZORBACK … a worthy name :laugh:
