    Hey Scott great ride topped off with wicked weather, the kids track was a big improvement but was abit too much for the really small kids, do you think next time can we get a small loop for kids also, the three boys that were with us struggle to get enough horsepowerrrr out there PW50's to get up the hills.

    Thanks for sorting my girl out with the injured knee. I had a laugh as I went back to get the bike courtesy of blackbuell on mad quad! seen bike in distance from road. when i got up to the hill it had gone walked back to road by now sweating like a pig and one of the nice ladies gave me a lift back only to see wife coming in other direction!!!! anyway all managed to meet up in the end but only managed two laps after all that!!! also one the young kid broke his chain 100yds into first lapso after nearly getting run over a few times he found it. thanks for the link Mike I owe ya one. and the trailer lift
    So an eventful day!!!

    You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
    And now a third thing a bloody big gun to shoot theives with!

    It was good, wasn't it....

    I'm aiming to be at Ardmore this Wed, but only with camera. Working at a Hospital with nowhere to park trailer safely...

    Grace and I will be at Kimmy's on Sunday, be interesting to see if there's somewhere she can have a play. $30 for a CRF100/12yr old who is just starting out, is a bit steep, even if she is a girl,( and therefore worth more.. )
    Although, I can't help thinking it's better value than a lot of things parents have to shell out for.... "I'm only going because my daughter wants to, honestly dear.."

    Big Thanks Scott, Mr Motorcycles, and all involved in the setup and running of the event, was a fantastic day.
    As A&R said great weather and views, nice to meet you Andy, with your family, their must have been at least 12 or more in our little corner.
    The little fella had a ball, at times I had to. crank it along to catch up to him, he had that KLX110 flying in places.
    I was giving him instruction on how to get up one of the hills, the one with the right turn were alot of rides were stop on the turn, when it cleared up a bit I took off up and around, court up to 4 wheeler half way up as i went to go round him he moved across my line so I had to stop, being Im short I was straggling to keep the bike up and not fall over.
    Just got the bike to one side out of the way, so I could remount and get going again when the fella rides right passed me, showing me how its done.
    Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

    Hey A&R and Climntie, I'm sure that they will let your 100's pass as a 85. Just have a chat to the lady when you pay.
