Antony needs some quality time....away from the family.... I'll be there...
Life…you get one shot…take it.
Holly shoot that was a windy ride today at Amberley, bit of carnage early on but avoided getting mixed up in the group pile up as half a dozen others got blowen on to a fence and thus a bit tangled.... then my goggles actually blew off, guess I should of tightened the strap a bit more.
Would be good if it was $25 for lap one, another $25 for lap 2 and after that they were all free. Wouldn't seem like such a waste as paying $50 for one lap is but I wasn't keen to go again with it blowing like that in the exposed areas.

I must say I have never been trail riding in wind like that before. Lap 2 was a little better and lap 3 was even better then 2 nice cold beers from the back of my car completed my perfect day, drive home unload everything then a nice cold ice block from the freezer YUM

Yea very windy up high in the open parts.
I did 3 loops, only dropped the bike the one time, but did it in a funny way......

This was loop two on that little up hill part in endure 1
It was soo much softer under wheel/cut up from loop one.
Had a clear run in loop 3, good fast lap, some tree branch took out my right fork bleeder valve, so I had wee drops of fork oil coming out and all over my chest mount go pro, doesn't make for a great picture lol.
That looked tough. Better you than me haha.

This was the first enduro deviation hill climb, I got up first time no worries but second time I had a flat rear tyre and well the picture says it all, FAIL
The main bonus was I have the Tubliss on board http://www.motomox.co.nz/shop/show_s...t.php?prod=271 so I rode the one and a half laps with a flat rear tyre no probs, still did 3 enduro deviations with a flatty, was interesting riding I must say, it was like riding a water bed without baffles but is was my get out of jail free card to carry on riding for the rest of the day
lots of fun though.
