Well 10 of us ventured to nood up in 1.5degrees to suit up for a blast in the wet mud and clay. Buy the time we got to the first turn I was heading back to dump my jacket.
Eventually we were underway , the idea was to a avoid anything to taxing as all mine and Frankie's. Bike fitness is gone after being off the bikes 4 so long. Well avoiding was difficult cause even the easy ones were mostly boggy or slippery . Appart from one rest on the ground by me I think that was it. No dust , but muddy and slushy and a couple of heart in the mouth moments 4 most. Ruts are getting deep again. We left around 10 and got back about 1.30 and only managed 50 odd klms.
I think everyone had a great 1/2 day out and as usual lots of crap stirring and laughs, thanks to Pommy Mat for hiding down the back doing tail all day and James 4 kicking my bike a couple of times for me. A big thanks to the other 9 adventurers taking on the cold, but not for long as by the time we started the sun was out and stayed out whilst we were out.

Thanks Will for showing us around Neerim again after, after giving the place a miss for a while it's getting back to the way it used to be, deep ruts up & down hills, fun fun, it felt good to be back on a ride again,Pommy Matt, insisted that i have a ride on his new 511 Husky, he wouldn't take no for a answer, I think he liked my 300 so much when he rode it at our HCR, he just wanted to have another ride on it  I've heard a lot of ppl poocan the Husky's, maybe they should have a ride on one, I reckon it will change there point of view, I liked the bike.....This is not supposed to be a Husky report so I better stop Thanks Matt for the ride, next rides that we are on & if you want to I'm happy to swap rides. Great day out, it's the company that makes the riding even better, thanks fellas. PS I don't know why ppl call me.....Silly old bastard!!!! |

Falling off doesn't hurt, it's the sudden stop that does the damage.

Well done Frankie, nothin worse than the faster blokes goin past ya when its not safe to do so. they must remember that its there responsability to do it when its safe to do so and not just when it takes there fancy. I gave a couple of bikes a under vehicle inspection as they past me flying through the air as I rolled over an erossion mound, saw one bike just about do tripples and only slowed as the rear wheel got caught on the lip of the 3rd one, may have been, a testicle touching tank moment for him  |

When i can be bothered ill put some video up on youtube |
