I have your earlier swim on video, will get that uploaded in the near future.

Those are excellent photos Chris

Just got home after yet another awesome dusty, we spent 4 days riding the rail trail with our support crew and I can say that a motorcycle seat is far more comfortable than a pushbike seat.
Came back via the coast and Denniston / New creek in awesome weather.
Shot up Mt Rochfort for the view and found a road crew trying to make the track less bumpy... they've got a job on their hands !
I havent had a chance to look at my DB pics yet but was too busy having fun to take many.

Got my photos sorted, was trying to do more riding-less-photos this time, but still managed to take 300 odd photos, the best of them can be found here......

They are awesome. Thanks for posting.

I want to go back again!

Cheers R

Great stuff TA

Nice video TA, had a wee chuckle as I overshot the same corner at the bottom of the lammamoors, about 11 mins in on the video. Look forward to the next ones.

**Transalper** · 29th January 2013, 21:14

Cheers guys.
Judging by the tracks in the grass a whole heap of us over shot that corner a lot further than me, lucky there was nothing to hit.
The first skid marks leading off the road near the beginning of the video are SpeedoJosh's ones I believe, where his 2 wheeled ride ended and he became a guest of XF650's in the Ute.
Next video will be based on just the Awakino Challenge, I'll start working on it

**Woodman** · 29th January 2013, 21:27

Cheers TA. That little hill where you had the spill on the Awakino was a litlle tricky aye.

Nothing need be said about my little incident about 11 mins in. Closest I've been to a decent off for some time. Stupid mistake as there was heaps of road. Bloody people with cameras to tell tales. Skid marks look pretty cool though. Nicely crossed up

Cheers r
