    Firstly a big thanks to Pete the Wolf as he donated a rear wheel for Chris’s XR in exchange for Chris’s current wheel which will be OK for Pete’s needs. I drove up to PTW’s place at Newcastle on Tuesday arvo after work. Got a dream run outa Sydney as well :)
    Well the hub was OK on Petes wheel but as we knew the rim had a crack in it. So I thought I would whip the tyre off and unlace the rim. No the tyre was harder than any tyre I have ever seen, so I thought I would see if the spoke nipples would turn. Tried the first 10 all seized, so out come the air grinder with the cutting wheel

    I had some old spokes from Chicken’s and Krusty’s wheel builds in the past. I stripped an old spare wheel with a stuffed hub I had here.

    New, 2nd hand heel built and ready for when Chris comes up tomorrow

    That’s a shame Eags, I also couldn’t have made it in the end now it’s seems as I have to much to do here. We should do that loop one weekend sooner rather than later. Lunch at St Aburns would be good.

    Nate I have to put Nicks bike back together (and now a tyre :pinch: :laugh: ) and get it to the pick up point to go to Bull’s (I am not going) it will fit on the truck so I reckon it will be right to go ahead and order mate ;)

    Hi everyone.
    So I have my bike up here now pretty settled in and that so Im keen to go for a ride whenever anyone is willing to take me. Might look into this Old Bull North Coast ride in the next couple of weeks. Anyway I look forward to meeting some of you soon hopefully.

    Hey Cressy, The ride at Bull’s place is only half an hour or so from Kempsey so you’d be mad not to get on it. There has been a few guys pull out so I am sure you’d get a start if you put your name in.

    Here’s the link to the ride thread.

    Yeah get onto that for sure Cressy as it’s on Bull’s place which is good not having rego (we don’t have very many unrego rides actually :unsure: ) you will have a ball. Bet your glad the move is over :laugh:

    Welcome again

    Well I am so glad I have registered for this ride. There is more to the picture than I realised. I just got an email from the organisers and there is a link on it that inspired me more than ever. As it turns out, our very own Pezz, has his own story to tell and it is the most inspiring story I have heard for a very long time Bring it on and fair dinkum if you guys knew the whole story you’d be jumping all over sponsoring the Old Bull’s team in the Scrapheap Adventure ride. There is a story on Youtube that I would love to post but I feel it is up to Pezz to post it, I think.
    Pezz is one inspiring man. :)

    My kids met Pezz for the first time last weekend at his house. Lochie who is 12 was moved to say when we got in the car what an amazing and nice man Pezz is. Kieran somewhat younger was amazed that Pezz could ride a motorbike, When Pezz walked out in shorts well you know how little kids are. I only got the story from Pezz about a month or two ago and it was incredible to hear what he went through, he also gave his parents side of it as well but didn’t mention the car :ohmy: It is inspiring yes Mick very much so should help us take nothing for granted eh ;)

    Yep and Yamaha did a 2wd WR with a hydraulic front hub but from memory they cost somewhere in the visibility of $25000.

    Yeah that’s the one, rode one in Orange for a few hours years ago. Only gave about 25% drive for the front compared to the rear from memory. Was different and made a difference. Hydraulic pump on the countershaft sprocket/ shaft hoses to the front drive pump.
