    Peer pressure!

    Over ther past 2 weekends we have been riding down in rotorua marking out a trail loop and 2 motor x grass tracks in the best padock any body will ever get to ride in! Its like a oversize golf course. If you went to the ride on the weekend you will know what im talking about if not there will be some pics up in the next few days if i can get them.

    Over the back of the padock there is some cool transfers and drop offs, when one of my mates said bet you cant get up there so here is some pics of a few the first attempt. 2nd attempt was done easy but didnt press record.

    That's a pretty decent sort of a vertical climb, nice effort getting on top, personally I'd avoid it

    Peer pressure is a good thing, though when it comes to jumping can be painful

    Looks like a mean spot, is this open to public or a private facility?

    Its in the middle of no where not open to public. will have pictures of the trail ride we had there the other day. My self and a few others mark out the tracks there we would have done 10 hours of riding in the past 2 weekends.

    Also had horse Vs Bike barrel racing, bike won which wasnt ment to happen

    Good thread title. Reckon I'd need to be prodded to have a go at some of that. Good pics & good work making use of some nice shapes of the land. How did you go at that steep ledge, was that a small launch-lip I see about a metre in front, or did you just 'hit it?'

    The small lip helped a bit. Basicly rolled up to it with clutch in seat bounce and poped the clutch got the front up then bring all weight forward to drag the rear up over the lip. I have a vid of the 3rd attempt but havnt had a chance to upload it yet. Horse power helped a bit lol
