Fran-tastic!!!!

The little jump just before the end just rounded it off nicely - wicked!

Looks like you guys had a great day!

I also love the guy at 0:45 doing the donuts

I prefer the XR250 for this sort of ride but it's a good way of finding out what your bike can actually do.

It was certainly pushing the envelope of adventure riding and it was great to practice riding some terrain I wouldnt normally ride on a big bike ,ie; wet slippery grass side slopes and steep downhills ,mud holes with steep muddy exits.
I achieved what I set out to do , got round a 16km lap without arsing off or damaging my body and decided to quit while I was ahead (not like some of us )
Jatz you are a bloody legend , that overtaking manoeuvre was a class piece of riding. The mighty CT was certainly standing proud on the trailer when Team Jatz hit the highway.
Nordy how did you ride down there with one hand ?

With difficulty.
Notice I had to drop the camera twice

Note to viewers: It was a lot steeper than it looked

[Paladin]

AHHHH fuck it Trailride it is then, on the triumph

I don't believe I saw the Triumph on Nordie's video - you wuss!

You DID look like you were having a blast on the little CT though!

And the big air on the CT was awesome!

Oh it was just the camera that dropped then - was a bit concerned you were on Mrs Jatz's Tenere and were adding a few "character marks" to it while she couldn't see!

Jatz has now broken both hand guards on XT.
I was at the pits with a big pair of binoculars and could see most of the track.

I had enough trouble keeping the XT upright, without much success on more than one ocasion
It also would have made werewolfs eyes water if I had riden it.
I think the CT will get a few more outings now, bloody good fun.
Ride it like it's already broken

Yep little CT looked like it was putting more smiles on faces than anything else you guys had there! What a blast! We want bigger air next time though!

(don't envy you on the compensation required by Mrs Jatz for breaking bits on her XT though!)

What do you mean HER XT? She's merely borrowing it from me for a while...

Good catching up with the crew & meeting Woodman - Now he's a bloody legend - more than 1 lap on the KLR - what damage did it sustain???

[Woodman]

You want a Husqvarna???

yea well those 610 huskys look the ticket, but i did mean a KTM. European/

Oh like that is it! My that bike is sure coveted by a few people!

The pink colour suits her better tho!
