Of course they are we all have to much fun racing them to stop doing them

Seemed like quite a low number of riders today. First few kms were greasy as ice, only came off on a big down hill with a bit too much front brake. Some of the marking out was a little lacking, had a few times where there were groups of riders wondering where to next... Good day out though, feeling sore now.

Id say a lot got put off by the weather (rain) this morning, my mate pugged out. Turned out to be a good day, as you said the track marking was a bit lacking in places, had to back track a couple of times. Out in the middle of the trail I found myself riding on my own for what seamed like long periods.
I had one off, where you come down hill into a little stream, I stalled on the exit out went to put my foot down, (short ass i am) went over on side then I rolled into the stream:facepalm: all on vid too:facepalm: might post it up later, for a bit of a laugh.

Thanks to Mr Motorcycles for these awesome trail rides

Looking forward to the Fun day MX series:yes:

Good to see you're still going John. Is Mike still riding?
Miss these sort of rides in the SI. Although I suppose down here on the west coast you dont really need organised stuff - just go ride! wherever

Hi Andy, been a while since you been in here, hope all is well with you and the family.

Mike still around, been a bit busy with getting the new house sorted, before they move in, so hasn't been on the
last couple of rides.
Yea, its a GoPro HD Hero awesome cam. takes awesome video, specially when you watch on Hi Def big screen TV:niceone:

Ok may need to get one of those. just getting back into the biking again, doing a 2dayer in the middle of SI soon. Camera would be a good idea I think - so the missus can see what I put myself ( and the kids) through! and revisit the scenery!. How long do they go for? - couple of hours ? or longer/shorter?

have you got the go pro hero HD2 with the 1080p resolution or the older model 720p resolution? see they have them at tracktion in chc for $500.00 for the best one or $299.00 for the lower resolution model.
