Cool vids Fran. Do you reckon the big bikes would have got around the course? With a bit of lifting & swearing I mean

It would be good to have a hoon around whilst the tracks are fresh aye.

Yeah I would have thought it'd be really shitty there but it looked really dry. Maybe next weekend?

I got around when we laid the track out. There's one downhill off Sheep Rd that'd be dodgy in the wet and another bit that'd be lethal but take your time and no problem.
They're pulling the course markers in this weekend and next weekend I'll be down the coast but sometime I really need to show youse guys the whole senior 45km lap

Went to the top of the monga today, was a bit muddy, and got stuck in that big hole in the middle of the road.

Then went up the central road area and followed the x country track. Shit was it slippery or what after yesterdays rain. There are some good slippery hills to go up and down, and it would be good to see if we can get right round the track soon.
Great fun.

Last weekend there was a car stuck right in the muddiest part of the muddy bit on the maunga. Saw in the paper some little shits got picked up by the cops for pinching it.

I also went for a cruise around central, Bobs fern etc today about 230pm but strictly told myself no firebreaks etc due to rooted back tyre,slippery trails & habit of getting into trouble late on Sunday avos. Couldn't help but do a few tracks but concentrated on keeping a bit of pace up around corners in the gravel to try & improve the old riding skills.

I love riding in there. It has nearly everything you need & only 7mins from the back door. Oh yeah I love my bike too

Top speed so far indicated 105km/h...needs to be GPS verified, 18" wheels, must be good for a dual purpose toy :P

On loan or permanently? The headlight for the 2T is available for loan. The headlight surround is held on to the forks by straps like most dirt bikes, and it uses an H4 globe... normal 3-pin plug connector.
