Laxed out rides

[Leyton]

What sorta boat, hopefully not one of those pofter "fishing" ones.

LOL, Its a 10ft Launch with a welded reinforced aluminium hull .. LOL Aka, Dingy

Least can be said about the trailer... I got it up past 60km/hr, and no shit, the trailer wanted to do flips!! So lucky I did not get onto the motorway like that. Turned out the axle plate was bent and the wheel was turned in by 2 degrease!!!

So after taking fuel can, removing motor and making a makeshift, that is now a perminent motorstand in my little baby rav4, I deflated the offending tyre and dragged the bitch down the motorway.. with no lights, rego, warrent.. it was scary..... The tyre was chewing out all the way home

So now I have a trailer rebuild job coming on... at first it was just the drawbar LOL On the bright side, the motor starts first pull boat is great.

Down side, I am $500 shorter in my balance then I thought I would be due to forcasted repairs and miss calculation of balances. Plus side is.. I phoned the guy who sold me lot and had a bit of a bark about the fact that he had not disclosed the fact that the axle plate was bent (Due to someone probably backing into the trailer)

Crikey!!! So backroads home it was. It took 4hrs

I could be keen for a laced out ride tomorrow as it will be my last before I head to Texas

You can all go screw yourselves!!! Bastards LOL

The turnout reminded me of the old school days. Obviously Jan-Feb is our riding months (well not mine anyway)

Yeah I feel like a ski.......hint hint

I would offer to supply your fix but if I ain't getting on the water, ya can get stuffed I was thinking of going for a wakeboard the other weekend and was just gonna hang on with one hand, until Brooke reminded me of my hip. Screw it.

It's tragic, the boat hasn't gone out all summer so I think I may have to look at sorting that problem next month. Open invite if it goes on the water.

You can add an extra 60km to that for how far 1wheelriot went... we got back at about 5-ish

Good turn out, great ride

I would have been keen for the extended run, but I doubt the owner would have been impressed with all the additional kms & lack of rubber left on the tyres, although there dosen't seem to much tread on the rear as it stands

Maybe so, but it 'Felt' like 13km and i'm pretty sure some parts of it had more than it's fair share of dust... So i'm calling it 13k...

Mind you, Hachet went through a 20mtr section of gravel and probably got just as much dust and gravel on his bike as we did... aye Hachet

I wondered who would be the first to bring this up (bastard) my excuse for the off road action !!!! I disregarded all of the signs that I did not see yet everybody else did this situation is called (a blonde moment). And that's that

you're welcome... You did make the most of the amount of gravel you had available to you.
