    Trail Ride

    It was my 13 year old boys second trail ride after the Beach Run in Feb and he totally enjoyed it despite injuring his wrist.
    I thought I had lost him after the first hill, but he had actually passed me and was waiting for me!!!
    I had a few offs but the ol KDX 200 hummed along.

    Well done to all involved and thanks to the St Johns people.

    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!

    A few pics....

    The photos of the dusty uphill thru the forest don't do justice to the grade. A really good test of skill (one day I'll get some)

    Grace did two laps of the main track and countless laps of the kids loop, got home and has totally cleaned and serviced her CRF100 and is now comatose in bed. I bet I know what she's dreaming of... KX85 big wheel... and soon.......

    Thanks guys for a great day out, and Grace gives the kid's loop the big thumbs up, best yet...
    I finally made your photo board mate...........i have the displeasure of being at the back of the carnage on that hillclimb(it was very exhausting)but it was great to see everyone pitching in and helping each other conquer the bugger, I was following your daughter for a bit and she's a good little rider mate,even offered help once to start her bike but got a very polite "i'm ok... i can do it"
    And the guy in the wings is my mate who was made wear them because he needs to show more comittment to the riding cause....hahaha

    Blah Dirt bike heaven...

    That ride was the best MR Motrocycles one I've done yet. That forest section was dirt bike heaven. Rough enough ground for a challenge and plenty of traction for a good fast pace. The bush section was just as good and even the farm bits had enough terrain shape to be fun and interesting. 10 out of 10 fun factor! Thanks to the others for posting some photos for me to grab - I was having too much of a blast to stop and take any myself. Big Thanks Craig and everyone else involved.
