Thanks for a top ride today Al. Pat that downhill was pretty tough $100 to anyone who can ride up it, good group to ride with today, huskys were the most popular bike and Al dont be surprised if Marls slaps you next time she sees you!!

Good on ya Al, great day for all and no easy task for you catering for 25+ riders.Gold stars to David and Marls, good job guys, some of that stuff was challenging enough for some of the experts(Seano). Pity I coped a softy later in the day, to lazy to fix it or buggered or both.. Thanks to the tails Clarky and Peter.  |

DAM CREEK / RIVER OR WHAT EVER THE HEL IT WAS Thanks Al Apart from the little mishap had a great day , even enjoyed the very narrow disused 4wd stuff for a change.

Hi Al,
Thanks for another great ride ,special thanks to Nathan for taking us on a few interesting tracks and 1 x bloody steep hill !.
Found out why I was running out of front brakes late in the day, fork seal has blown and was spewing oil all over the disc, will fix this week .
Cheers,
Gary.

Thanks for organising the ride Al - some very enjoyable tracks, especially that last one with the blast up the hill and the culverts/jumps!

Gary & Flipper glad you both had a good day. It was hard to try and make the ride suit everyone, but most punters seemed happy. Hope to see you on the next one, well the next time i run a ride at this level anyway.
Al

To echo the other comments - Thanks Al for arranging and also specifically for taking it down a notch to give some of us the opportunity for a stretch. Great day out and thought I was doing ok until the last two down hills ,,,,,,[I am glad I didnt see the one on Nathan's loop]
Out in one piece - all good - and also thanks to the days tailmen - appreciated! Cheers David

Everyone is thanking Al for the ride, which I too will post up as I had a great day. The ride catered for all of us on the day & thanks to Natahn for taking a few of us on some other tracks as the main crew tackled Als level2 stuff. The area Al had us in was varied & a whole lot of fun, plenty of time to carve up some awsum hills, decend some easy & not so easy hills as well as a variety of tracks that prove Al knows his stuff. Plenty of laughs & highlights, some I hope I caught on the Video . If so I will post them up soon. Even Tool belts left by some riders looking to lighten their loads. LOL Brad Glad the weather was so good for us all, as I know just by looking at the surfaces we were on the whole level 2 ride would have been quiet a different ball game in the wet! Anyone who missed this ride did so at great loss to themselves, all you level 2s wanting some fun in this area again will have to keep Al on your Xmas card lists. LOL Great to see all the regulars again, I dont think Zeb will appreciate Steuart being on this ride as his camera came out at some in opertune times. I look forward to seeing the results. Thanks Al & Nathan top work. Many thanks to Mark for his tailman work in the morning. Special thanks to ? chinchin ?? Honda rider with a spare bolt for my barkbuster. I appreciated having it back in place. Cheers Pete  |

Paul, David and Pete.
Once again thanks for all the good reports on yesterdays ride.
I am intrested to hear if anyone felt the ride was to easy or hard? (Marl's think of the good bits!!) Splitting the group worked, ok. Was difficult with such a large spread in rider levels, with the ride being aimed at level 2's. Some of the tracks were harder than planned with recent work done on them. How ever the river crossings were kind to us, compaired to what i usually drag the troops through. And as Pete said, the weather was kind as Fumina carries a special sort of slipperyness. Which is only mastered by many tastings!! Would like some suggestions for improvement, if i decide to run another level 2 ride.
Cheers Al

CHOI! What the bloody hell is CHOI! Like BUK CHOI? If you are trying to say "chow" as in, the Italian word for good-bye, it is spelt CIAO! "Now, write it out 100 times, and if it's not done by the morning, I'll cut ya balls off!" - Monty Python And, by the way, while we're on film quotes, it's "Cundalini". The whole quote is, "That there is Cundalini... and Cundalini wants his hand back! - Toecutter. Hope this helps!  |
