    ...and it'll hurt even more tomorrow....

    But you will get used to it eventually, there's a point where ride fitness builds up and it doesn't hurt as much the next day.

    I think I dehydrated myself even with 1.5 ltrs of water in.

    Best thing was the little kid on the trail on an little bike. He may have been 4? Very cool Dad doing that with him.

    Only problem I had all day apart from not enough water was I had real trouble getting out of the car at home. Im a bit sore.
    How do you feel today?

    Again the club put on a great ride, green track (novice) was a gem, the yellow (intermediate) a pleasure & the red (expert) had its many challenges as usual - I gotta get fitter for sure, fatigue was my downfall.

    Im shattered.

    But keen to do the bike up a bit more now. Want to clean the plastics up and get some stickers for it. Going to adjust the pilot jet to help the starting to.

    Hows your arm?

    Green track was great, really good learning trail. Some nice twisty bits and some open it up bits.

    But I got a awesome headache on the way home, need to drink some electrolytes during the day I think.

    Arms better thanks to Tiger Balm. Another few weeks & it'll be good.
    Musta injured my eyes though, the lids were very heavy & I missed the game.
    Drink lotsa water, the day before too. I may go through 4 litres on the day. Lay off the beers the night before.
    Clean plastics & stickers!! spend $ on tyres, chain, hand gaurds & brakes 1st, bling it up after the essentials.

    LOL , thought that would wind you up.

    Gunna get fork seals first, and have a look at the front brake/cable etc. And reset the headset etc. But as money allows.

    Probably pop over tomorrow night and get it out of your way. Just have to work out borrowing the Van.

    Had a look at handguards today, they aint cheap.

    Bike is safe here. I've got some Acerbis guards here, we'll see if they fit.

    A really fun track, especially the tight section through the new trees. Heaps of work laying out something like that, so big ups to the organizers.

    Here's some helmet cam footage
