I find it incredible that in 2010 you can go out into the bush and shoot animals whether feral or not. Some may die, some may run away injured and slowly die but surely we have evolved beyond this. If the kill is to feed your tribe and the skin is to wear then I get it but if it for recreation it is fucking sick! If there was a form of catch and release or laser simulation then fine but there is not. It is bloody and it is cruel.
The hunters out there will say that I grew up in the city and do not understand the damage feral animals cause but I feel as strongly about this as I do beacuse as a kid my dad took me hunting. I competed in rifle ranges and was a good shot and as much as I enjoyed everything me and my Dad did together I wish I could erase the memory of watching animals drop through my sights.
If it is feral it is beacuse we introduced it and it is up to us to find an effective and humane way to solve the problem we started in the first place. The animals did not ask to come here and they sure as hell do not deserve to be mortaly injured and die slowly.

Fes makes a really good point. It may be some trail debris or an unseen branch but either way I hope buddy makes it ok and recovers quickly.

My neighbour is Chelsea Hedges mum and if you are a surfer you will know who that is. Chelsea was the next Australian world champion afetr Layne Baechley. That was before she was married so it’s listed as Chelsea Gorgeson. She took a year off the world tour to have a baby and is back on it this year. Her daughter and my boy are a similar age so when she Chelasea is in town she always comes over for a chat. She had one on about six months ago and I asked her about it. Keep in mind we are talking an elite athlete her and she swears by it. She wears it during training and contests and says it definatley makes a difference.

It’s all about the core Menace. Get that strong and the rest will follow. It may sound like a chicks class but Pilates is the best possible thing you can be doing.

Good Luck

Just having a read through the list of names and this one is going to be massive. I am interested to see what you have planned as a support vehicle because apart from the fuel we will have swags, tents, food and eskys to cart around for 100 odd riders.

Whats the plan boss?

That why you are in the press Mick.

I have some of those Pro Grip ones with the light sensitive lens. If you ride in areas where the light changes a lot, i.e laomy sub rainforest they are the business. It was not until I used an old pair I had sitting around with a conventional lens that I realised just how good they were.
