Its a fitness thing more than anything, I wouldn’t mind doing the loop backwards as it's dry now. And turning round and doing the whakerike track. :headbang:

Id get a pipe gaurd and a sump gaurd and gear your bike lower if you can be assed. I have a new Ti 4.1 factory exhust system thanks to that track lol. give me a XR and ill do it. The 450's arent suited to that sorta track but its still a good track if ur up for a challenge

Is that your pre ride stretching routine Cave Weta?
And how do you manage to repost a pic that you have already used on this website? It never allows me to do that when I have tried.

Use a defferent name on the photo Greg, however I think that I never needed to see that photo.... EVER!! YUCK!
I could be keen to give wires a crack, but I think I'd need a pipe guard and a cup of concrete......

Ye I think you should give it a go, the more the better it’s just about getting a good group together and having a laugh. While scaling vertical walls and crossing rivers. :lol:

I thought I had tried a different name but with the same result. Other sites will let you post the same pic twice but this one always comes up with that the file has already been uploaded blah blah.
I didn't run a pipe guard and none of us smashed our pipes when we did it although the potential is definatly there. Just don't go crazy and my concern was actually the crank cases but we got through without any damage.

I think i damaged my pipe when i went over the bars heading down the rocky section of the long down hill. Going to fast :scooter:
But definitly lower gearing for my bike would have made a huge differance.

Id rather do the wires than hang upside down from the ceiling by my knob!-OOUCH!!!
Why is he doing that I wonder?
Surely there must be a more comfortable way to enlargen your dick aye?:shit:
Change the things u cant accept
Accept the things u cant change.
Have the wisdom to know the difference.
Obviously no-one told this poor fella!
I bet he needed a pipe guard for a few days after that
excercise lol!
