Yeh it is mate I would like to go to Cameron Corner but not sure if the donkey is quick enough
Ride report as promised……….. :ohmy:
A quick scoot up to Lithgow from penrith on friday afterwork saw me with a beer in hand before 6pm :woohoo: sorted my room out and unloaded the bike ready for the morning.
It was great to catch up with a few Bulls I already knew and to meet some new riding buddies at the same was cool.
I had decided to help out with the newbies as my riding buddies from the last nav ride ( U know who U are :whistle: ) had pulled the pin a few weeks earlier.
So Boulder was to lead the group and I was going to swe…. not wear an orange vest behind the last newbie. :whistle:
PTW and TB were busy loading GPS’s, everyone had a bite to eat and before we knew it the riders briefing was done, a few more quiet ones and we were off to bed.Boulder and I were ready to rock before 7 and we were just waiting for our group to assemble.
Once we had them all together we hit the road around 7.20.We were moving at a reasonable pace along the tar for a bit and then into the trails (which were of course awesome – thanks TB and co). there were a couple of minor nav errors that were quickly corrected and before long we happened upon Usi who had gotten separated from his group so he link up with us. Through the quarry was a little tricky as there were tracks everywhere and the fog wasn’t helping, but we all made it out alive :unsure:
From there we headed to Jenolan caves were we had a quick stop for a drink and a chat before heading off to the lunch/fuel stop at Burraga.
The tracks that we rode between the Jenolan caves and Burraga were top notch you couldn’t ask for better IMO and I will be trying to get a copy of the route to re do those another time thanks again track setting crew
Now, I have a property not too far from Burraga and ride there a few times a year for some lunch and fuel. In my experience there are two different ladies that seem to work there alternate saturdays, one is extremely nice and cant do enough for you, the other……… not so much
Unfortunately it was Miss not so much’s turn but given the amount of business they were getting for the day she was on her best behavior :ohmy: while we were there.
From there we were making our way to Woodstock, our group was getting along well, Boulder and I were swapping the lead duties so all was good until we arrived at a small uphill section before the drop off we had been warned about.
Half way up the hill Usi’s clutch decided it had had enough and didnt want to play anymore.
So that put a halt to things until we could speak to the other guys riding at the back who did have orange vests on :whistle:From there we had an easy cruise into Woodstock and with a few beers had a great night.
Sunday’s ride back to Oberon was under way early and was un eventful ……… except for missing the last 20 km’s chasing down part of the group that had missed a turn :whistle:
We rode some nice tracks again on Sunday and we got to Oberon ok.
Great weekend away on the bikes, top tracks, Top blokes cant wait to do it all again in the new year :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
SHIT sorry to hear that Squiggle and Merlyn
All the best for a super speedy recovery Merlyn, I am confident in saying that everyone on the Nav ride would feel the same.
If you need anything just call out, there will be an Old Bull somewhere able to lend a handHi all,
Once again a magnificent weekend of riding
Huge thanks to TB, and all of the track setters and sweep riders.
You guys must spend hours and hours finding, riding and putting all the tracks together for us to ride and they are always awesome so thank you very much!!A report to follow………
