My wife is going to kill me

I wonder if she will let me strip it down while i watch the cricket in the lounge room?

That’s fantastic deal, love it.

If she wont let you fix it up in the lounge room just get another TV for the shed!
Less than $50 these days will get you a good older TV (picture tube type) since everyone is going for the flat screens.

The following was developed as a mental age assessment

Take your time and see if you can read each line aloud without a mistake.

The average person over 40 years of age – Cannot – do it!

1. This is this cat.
2. This is is cat.
3. This is how cat.
4. This is to cat.
5. This is keep cat.
6. This is an cat.
7. This is old cat.
8. This is fart cat.
9. This is busy cat.
10 This is for cat.
11 This is forty cat.

Gynecologist’s Assistant
A retired man went into the Job Centre in Sydney, and saw a card advertising for a Gynaecologist’s Assistant. Interested, he went in and asked the clerk for details.

The clerk pulled up the file and read; “The job entails getting the ladies ready for the gynaecologist. You have to help the women out of their underwear, lay them down and carefully wash their private regions, then apply shaving foam and gently shave off the hair, then rub in soothing oils so they’re ready for the gynaecologist’s examination. “The annual salary is $65,000, and you’ll have to go to Darwin, that’s about 3000 miles from here.”

“Good grief, is that where the job is?”

“No sir — that’s where the end of the line is right now.

Lifesavers, you know the lollies….

The children began to identify the flavours by their colour:

Red………………….Cherry
Yellow………………Lemon
Green………………Lime
Orange ……………Orange

Finally the teacher gave them all HONEY lifesavers. None
of the children could identify the taste.

The teacher said, ‘I will give you all a clue. It’s what your mother may sometimes call your father.’

One little girl looked up in horror, spat her lifesaver out and yelled, ‘Oh my God! They’re arse-holes!

The teacher had to leave the room!

I put my tools in a Ballards tool roll and that plus tube etc all goes in my Camelbak Mule along with munchies etc.
I find the Mule a little small tho, might be better to get the Hawg, it has more cargo space + 3L bladder.

Beems could you email me the GPS files also and I’ll bring my garmin for back up/support. Can even run sweep I suppose but I’ve never used it on the run before so we may need to chat prior.

Um, I think he’s sending maps via Aussie POost :huh:
I could use them to create a route without too much inacuracy I guess.

[PaulMember]

Thanks Yakka 01, I was a bit worried about going too fast but that’s what the sweeps are for I guess, without them a ride can fall apart easily as shown by our new KTM 400 riding mate
Actually it was the cornerman system which really showed it value in this case, when riders stop or break down the ride eventually stops and falls back to recover the missing.

I may run a different version of this ride again soon(ish).
Stay tuned.

Come and follow the Super Commuter around the forest for 180ks :laugh:
I bet you will all be bore shitless within half hour

We will find a decent leader before the ride people,, we have nearly 3 weeks :blink:

I think I was only going to do the Saturday ride but if TB is OK with it I can have a go at leading with his instructions and maybe some GPS waypoints or a route/track file sent via email.

Just a thought, I dont know the area at all though.

[PaulMember]

Oops.
Now there are 9 pages….

[PaulMember]

Actually TB a locked thread or regular updates to the original post would be good.
There are 8 pages to this thread and I for one dont have time to read it all.
I might even go to the wrong meeting point for all I know. :ohmy:

PS; WikdBeemer is spelt wrong :dry:

Thank’s Wikd for organising the ride and boulder and Training Wheels for sweeping. Good ride, good company.

old al.

There is one bad part about being up front, you miss these moments.

It was a better ride than I expected, mainly thanks to the great crew I had (everyone on the ride) especially the sweeps.
Well done everyone.
KatGirl; you’ve done sand, wet muddy slip slop so maybe next you could try dry & dusty. Then you could tell us what the best (or worst)? It is always a contestable opinion that, a great thread starter

As a side note, I had problems doing the pre-ride and hoped to run us through some choice grade 2-3 single but it was not to be.

Doing the pre-ride I snapped the rear drive chain after 7Km.
The bike was at a dead end at the time and there was about 500m of gradual hill to try to push the bike up before there was a hope of getting the car & trailer in.
During a rest stop from pushing (Friday was a hot day) I had the bike on its stand and my helmet on the handlebar, as they say you should not do.
Then the stand gave way and folded up, dropping the bike on the helmet and rendering it unsafe, damaged the outside shell and inner styrene foam.

So eventually (2.5hrs) I got the bike on the trailer after walking to the nearest road and getting old mate to run me down to the car and then off the the bike shop for another chain set, stand and helmet.

Oh well, it was probably time for a new helmet but a think the bike should have some explaining to do, I thought I was good with the maintenance :S
