    Only stirringB) , welcome aboard Whanny.

    Seems like there is a good scene going on in Tamworth so I am sure you can find a few crew to ride with. If you find yourself down on the coast with your bike drop me a line and I will take you out for a ride.

    Cheers

    Maybe he can start up Young Bulls. A blog site for like minded grommies who don’t wear belts and like riding bikes in the bush.

    Just to get this thread back on track, welcome Matt.

    This site is a great escape both on the bike and off it.

    Enjoy

    P.s Having your thread hijacked on this site is a rite of passage so consider yourself one of the fold:laugh:

    No can do TB. I have to go to Vegas that weekend otherwise I would have.

    Bulls

    I have “the” contact within Camelback so if we decide on a model and colour I could organise a qty buy at the right price.

    Decide on the perfect trail pack and I will get a Bulls price. It would be a promo one off deal.

    You just summed it up perfectly ECKS. Just me, a buffed section of singletrack and a 250F screaming its heart out:woohoo:

    Hey Boony

    They are 50% lighter than your Banana and 30% more expensive so by the gram you still have the best value in town:laugh:

    How do you figure that. By your calculations ya paying 30% more for 50% less. :P

    Do the maths Scotty. Boonys current ride is much better value by the gram than a new KTM.

    My old man made me a rigid, balloon tyre weapon with a 50cc ride-on mower engine mounted to a hand welded cromo frame. Full auto except as soon as you pulled the starter it would move forward:laugh: He gave it to me on 07/07/77. We had a steep grass hill on our property and he said that once I could ride the hill and stop next to a certain tree at the bottom he would start the engine, so I moved further and further up the hill until I could let it run the whole way down and use the brakes to stop next to the marker tree. As soon as I did it once he grabbed the handle and pulled the cord and she fired to life. He explained that the throttle was like a hill, the more you turn it the steeper the hill and off I went. I had a lot of respect for that hill so I had a lot of respect for the throttle. Oh how times have changed.:)

    Beers are good, but they get gassy and are hard to drink too many so I normally shift to Vodka which isn’t always a good think :dry:

    How young?

    Because if the ‘incident’ you speak of was longer ago than last month you need to harden up and get back on the horse:laugh:

    Imagine if you took that attitude to riding, one broken bone and you give up.

    Very disappointing Moto. At least I know what to buy for you trip up next month:P

    P.s You spelt Mojito incorrectly. Correct spelling is GAY:P

    in reply to: 2000 club #149747

    Ah yes, the old quality v qauntity debate. If I was offered 1000 k’s of road riding or 20k’s of singletrack I know which I would take but when it comes to you Menace I want qauntity. Sure a lot of what you post is pure dribble but it makes me laugh and for that I say thanks!

    Well Done

    in reply to: Anyone actually get out for a ride today ??? #149599

    I rode yesterday and will go out again today. I am taking my map and scoping out a corner of the forest that is new to me. Hopefully I can find some more singletrack:)
