Might want to rethink that after fixing three holes where i pinched the tube

True Jak :huh: Did you use ultra heavy duty tubes? Did you put a couple of psi of air in the tube when putting it back together? Did you use a excavator instead of tyre levers :laugh: :laugh: :blush:
Don’t feel bad mate Ollie has been doing them for years and he would be happy to go as well as you did today :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: True :laugh:

Keep practicing

No Boony I dont think thats a good idea for us here in NSW and on a whole Vic has less areas then us per acre per head and rec rego just lets them ride in their restricted areas, rec rego would just see more bikes over riding our areas as it will be cheaper to do it wont it, wont fix a thing.
Also track maintenance with single track is hard because you cant get in or out bar walking then its all hand labour and thats not going to happen.

TB it’s not just about unrego bikes, but bikes doing what they consider the wrong thing. That would include riding the single tracks we like so much. These arn’t considered “legal trails” and as such whether your registered or not they want you out of the forest. Life will get boring real quick if we have to stick to the fire roads.

Yeah I am aware of that Scott I have been banging on about this for ages now. We only have ourselves to blame, people just keep re-riding the same tracks ride after ride after ride and the tracks are over ridden and we lose them. We need to be a lot smarter mix up our riding travel a bit sometimes, maybe don’t use our favorite single if its real wet. I am not having a go at anyone here I am just voicing an opinion and a view

think if it comes to there being no single track riding alowed and only alowed on fire trails we may as well sell our bikes and get harlys become a bikey gang.think most of us are over racing thats the only other option

That’s true Rocket and when we are in the public’s direct eye at the camp area they are at we need to show some responsibility roaring up and down a hill in their quiet area doesn’t help (I am not having a go just giving an example, I know I have to think about how I act somethings because I am not real smart at times :blush: )

When we first got the web site going I did some research and spoke with some rangers (NP) and a state forest manger in Gosford and was told thats right Scott. But they have the right to close a track, I have seen this done at the Watagans and people just pulled the bunting down and rode around What hope as a group do we have :ohmy:
They put mesh down to prevent anymore soil erosion and guys will use it for traction to get up the hill they couldn’t before because it and been flogged to death again what bloody hope have we as a group
Or a track is cut up the same hill next to the unrideable one or it ends up as wide as a freeway and all unrideable
I was told by state forest in the Watagans for example they cant control people in the forest and will log it and rather then spend the money sell it to NP, they will replant it and close it end of story.
The answer to all this I dont have, I just try and ride as many areas as can I wont ride my favorite area, the area I grew up in and rode for 20 + years, I know it wont change anything but what do we do :huh:

(This rant was not directed at anyone here it is just a rant please dont feel I am having a go at anyone I like to think we are a bit smarter the most )

Dont worry about that bit Bruce we know their political bullshit behind it is just that. Get the pit bikes get the unregistered MX bikes and get the tossers riding unrego’ed. Level the playing field so when one of those pecker heads runs into me in the forest green slip insurance and the likes helps me :angry: :angry: This is one of my pet hates and if we did the right thing it would give us a leg to stand on other fronts as far as defending our sport goes because we are losing the argument and I will see in my ride time things change for the worse mark my words :angry:
