Sunset Farm trail ride, Sun 21 March

[2fitty]

It's always a pleasant ride just take your time to avoid the log jams of riders that occur in a couple of places. Certainly a family ride, so aimed at providing terrain anyone can ride and there is always lots of open areas so the new riders don't feel they are going to get flattened by the faster guys.

I know a lot of us complain about the ride costs but we need to keep supporting these guys as without them you will be riding around your back yard, not on someones farm, $40 for a days entertainment is cheap in my books.

yeah good point i suppose $40 isnt too bad, costs about that to take the misses to the movies. and am definately not keen for laps around the backyard.

I had planned on going but am shattered after riding at Kimmys today. Managed to have one fall on the trail and have a very chubby wrist right now - backfire!

Great day there, not too busy but dust was a bitch. Unfortunately the quad only day yesterday was cancelled so they came along today... when quads are around the dust was too thick to even see the track. Better this year with no jams at the river crossing as it went the opposite way to last year. Bogs, hill climbs, open fields, bush ... not a bad track... and the views from up top on the coast track were stunning.

What a cool ride Unfortunately mine was cut short thanks to bunging my already bung knee. But I got back home despite no front brake lever and paaaain so bad I wanted to puke (don't bung your brake/kick knee, it's kinda useful).
Got two loops in anyway, first did the coast one. Didn't do the ride down to the beach, but we did the expert only forest bit which was challenging but cool, I was pretty happy that I managed to make it up those big hills, I got stuck on the first really steep one for a while. My bike was running really good today Then we went back out and did the teatree track thing, which was cool too, I liked all the native bush and some fun uphills. I just stupidly went a bit too fast when we were almost home and overshot a corner. Bum knee, broken lever, smashed visor. Neck brace obviously did a good job cause I didn't even realise I'd hit my head until I got back and saw the smashed visor! Hurray.
Anyway, cool ride, great views, will be back next year for sure and hope my knee is ok for all the good rides this weekend!
Krad is putting all the bikes away at the moment cause I'm crippled...What a gentleman

Geez Spiked Punch, what a buggar, you were doing so well when we talked!

Wow this ride would be ranked right up there, not too technical, but still hard in places, great uphills and bogs, but they dried up pretty quickly. Will definitely do this one next year, would be a cool place to stay as well!

'21-02-10 1' 4:44 - Lol, oh dear. There I am headed back down the hill. I got stuck on that one for a while, made it up in the end tho with lots of wheelies! I look so bummed out The other hills were sweet after that. That forest expert section was cool.
Awesome quality vids btw!
