Riverhead trailride

Anyone do the Riverhead trailride yesterday? I couldn't make it , had to rotate the tyres on the Hummer and sight in my new rifle.

Yeah I did it. It was the best track of the summer series in my opinion. Excellant conditions but because I have only ridden once in the last month or so I was pretty out of shape and only did 4 or 5 laps.

Yeah I was there- got to ride with 2 of the organisers (cool guys!) not to mention Titanium Tom, Jammin Jimmy and Bendy Benny.
Totally cool day- WMCC YOU ROCK!

Shit if i knew you were there Knobby I would have made a bit more of an effort to get along, only been back in the country 2 days. Still waiting for the other container to arrive from the States with the new scoot.

You bet- on his 453 with the revalved and stiffer sprung forks that you did- totally hauling all day.
He reckons it's the best setup he has ever run- over the front and totally agro all the way- wish I could match the guy.

Good to hear. Mind you that guy would be fast on an exercycle. Got some more suspension goodies in the container on the way from the States, ...certainly helps having a bro who works for KTM USA.

Yeah there are a few bits, a lot of it is developmental and I would have to kill you afterwards ha ha ha LOL. Looks like Ktm might be going back to a conventional fork and a semi linkage type shock. The mid sized thumper will have to wait until the AMA gets its shit together, all I can say is the bike Knighter is riding aint no 450!!!
