    The AWD bike rocked!! The track seemed to get better and better as i learnt where to go fast and what jumps to hit and what rocks to avoid!

    Ride was a good un.... pretty bumpy in some of the paddocks,think i preferred the second part of the trail (where it split off from the green loop)the best.My nice new bike took a bit of a battering courtesy of a Quad rider he blasted past me on a uphill section and side swiped me ripping my hand off the bars and over i went.Of course Murphy's Law dictated that i end up hitting the ground in a rocky part= broken brake lever,broken side panel and ripped a bolt(including the cast thread) off a fork/ protector.Annoyed me a bit cause i was nearly at the top and it was a bit narrow and i always pull over when i can for the fast guys......but i still had a good time....

    Emergancy medics involved in covert drug deal.

    Yes! while I was there I witnessed the Saint Johns Ambulance using the venue to trade a pound of heads with the Westpac crew!

    A universal dream of greatness is that
    We push ourselves to the limit
    Yet still be brilliant when the chips are down.
    Sometimes , The struggle kills the dream.

    Did they have those two cool rocky sections on the hill climbs? Pretty dry this year but it was fun to see people struggle on those when they were damp a year or two ago.


    Twice the displacement, twice the cost and a decibel problem, I'll pass on the inside brraaaap!!!

    they had a section where you crossed a stream on some pallets then went into the bush and it was really rocky there?
    was about 100m long or something, wasnt difficult
    there were places where there were lots of rocks in one place but only for a few metres and you had to ride over them to get past
    i thought it would be hard but it was easy
    we may just go where no ones been
