Dead Toad 3hr Cross country race August 16 2009

[Henk]

Was such an awesome ride.


Would love to see some photos! There was a dude with a parked up bike taking some shots.

Dude with the parked up bike was Geoff Osborne. Keep an eye on KiwiRider

There were some pretty tired looking faces at the end and some pretty scaring moves in the scoring chute!
Just the one injury (ribs) and NO cheating which makes us pretty happy-amazing how fast the course gets hammered though.

Good stuff guys. Even if not a great result for some, at least you were there. Vazza you must be stoked, take my hat off to you! Watch out for KTMboy next time though. Hat's off to you as well. Can relate to those cramps, they can bloody near cripple you.

Weird the flat tyre fairy paying a few visits. Guy I was talking to last light got a flat rear, changed it then got a slow leak on front & had to pump up each lap.

Results now up on our link below- this is the highest class field we have had in years.
Good to see there was no cheating either.....

Haha, it was pretty funny on the second to last lap, I was about 20 metres away from the scanning area and I was trying to overtake a dude but it took me completely off track, outside of the fence. Geez that was embarassing, everyone saw it to!! I think billaroo laughed at me hahah

cheers cam! ^_^

Aw , if it's who I think it was he had a really fast flash, got two of me within a second, whether I'd want anyone to see them is another story.
