Yeah my daughter is not keen on sand, she isn't comfortable on the Yellow and Green Tracks but enjoys the Blues and she feels the Blues are easier to ride because they are firmer. So our plan is to avoid the Greens and Yellows as much as possible and Rat Run the Blues. I've printed out a map and cut it into 4 and laminated the sections which we'll take with us on our expeditions. Should be fun!

Agreed about the blue tracks, only last time she got pissed off with the yellow trails leading to the blues LOL!!! Should be a bit harder packed there though! I have an A4 Laminated map I put under my shirt as well. Still get lost though! :doh: I'm shit scared to put her off riding and she'll be able to handle the sand after a few more rides, badly needs another front tyre as well so we will see how the weather is tomola!

Hey there Reckless!
I'm more than happy to take your daughter out for a ride tomorrow to get her use to the yellows and greens! I want to do more blues, so she can help me as well! I was out there last Sunday and the tracks were all so packed down, it was awesome.

oldskool gave me a piece of cake, was cool, the only cake i got lmao, thanks mate, went well with the beer, ended up with beercake :first:
redrider, i didnt check kb this morning so missed your post, was down in that area a few times, i was the kid on the 125 wearing the 661 pressure suit with the fluro green camelbak, ya might've seen me, maybe not? next time tho
was a good day really, bent my gear lever again on a root on the criminal ffs, just bent it back from 90 degrees out, so was algood
did the outward bound track all the way to the top then came back down on the one that runs parallel to it, thats quite a cool loop to do

Well today I finally got to put a couple of hours in with the boys, Redrider, Leehoon, Chop etc. Good to see you Keith.
Yes we cleared the foliage on the SH16A track but still have to prune a couple of branches. Its now run in so to speak.
I too had a great ride:niceone:
haha yea at least i'll be riding this wknd flyin :bleh:
yea did paparimu, was really sweet, is there a ride soon? huuh
had a grate day out ther with you guys and doing a track with oldskools girl was a blast
Did you get any video? How you finding the new bike, and the change from 2t to 4t?
noobi
17th May 2009, 20:37
yea steve... where were you at? sold that bike yet?
the school that the ride was fundraising for, paparimu primary i suppose it is, want to run another charity ride as a fundraiser, there setting out the track, i assume its the same as the other ride that was on there, and counties honda are the shop thats supporting them
we'll be doing it as long as it doesnt rain too much....
the 3 expert sections, if there there, will be nearly impossible in the wet, imagine thunder in the wet but heaps steeper :doh:

That was a nice we track ....was it arrowed all the way through? If so we made our own deviation as at one stage we were using pruned trees as markers.

Geez sorry Spiked Punch, lost you guys on that blue! Came up after you and sort of lost it, fell down the bank! Took about 20 minutes to push bike out! crfchick is here on Saturday, not this one but next. She's meeting me out there about 9.30. Then the Sunday is the City Scramble, then Ken Fell's Sunday to watch the motor x! Where's the new favourite blue then?
