Someone want to combine the birthday ride in with their ride they are organising, July would be good. I will organise the fund raising side to keep the site going. It doesn’t change their ride, the auction is just a few hours on the Saturday night. Sorry Nick as much as I know you would its to far north for most

Food for thought, it shouldn’t be the same people all the time

There has been a take up on this thank you. No date will be put forward at this stage at least until we sort out the details

Thanks

You didn’t think I’d miss that opportunity did you?

No I didn’t :laugh: and I did think about responding with a few truths about some of your sad performances at Adam’s and Nickj’s rides where you have been a grovelling mess halfway in and maybe the bitumen would be better suited to you :laugh: But alas I looked at your comment and remembered its normal to attack what you are scared off, don’t know or cant do

All that bullshit a side but mate :laugh: have a great ride and enjoy the fruits of your hard work The site is a better place for all the effort

Sadly I can’t make this event gents, well I could but umm I remembered to late it is the brides birthday this weekend, I put a plan into place and it was going to be tight but I thought I had it covered :laugh: . Last night after much planning I can’t swing it :pinch: She said I could go but, well you know. So now I have a weekend away up the coast which will be good as well.
Bike is prepared and I was pumped to get right amongst it this weekend, seriously looking forward to it as Nickj and I have been discussing it.

Anyway, enjoy everybody, ride safe, drink well and take plenty of pictures please

Good job Tamworth crew, take a pat on the back

I could have forced mine to fit but was worried the guards would wear a hole in the tank

Yeah that is the problem with tanks as they wobble / vibrate so much

Hi Sharpie

I love a project as much as the next guy. Couple of things firstly a near stock DR400 weighs 139kgs. We have weighed them on proper race digital scales and all shit a side that is the cold hard facts. In Micks shed we weighed KTMs, WRs, CRFs the whole lot real world. You can’t add parts and take 20kgs out of a bike. I took 9kilos out of my Tenere and added 12kilos when I bolted on all my bits and bobs

The DR is a good heavy mid range reliable bike that does everything ok bug nothing outstanding. Maybe a WR450 or a KTM 450 if you need or want the six speed box , or WR 250r we have huge success with ours.

Good luck whatever you do and do a build thread,

Cheers

High guys im new to this site and was wondering if there are any spots left on this ride

OGAB sorry mate we are looking for less rather than more riders for this ride

I am sure he was in a hurry when he replied, I reckon what he meant to say was “Welcome”, “Sadly the ride is over booked at the moment but do yourself an intro and watch out for future rides” He would have also added “Everybody can put rides on, its how we all got to know one another and become mates because we all didnt know one another at one stage” Its the Old Bull way, its why this site is different to others.

So, welcome and do an intro OGAB there will be more rides mate

On topic

How much rain did you get Snowy? Should be prime by the time we arrive :woohoo: Yee haa practicing the singles proper last week on the WR super pumped for this ride :woohoo:
