Re: Grand Final Ride 2024 LVL 3

What a day and what a ride. Had an absolute blast with everyone, steep hillclimbs, insane decents, wacky off cambers, slippery creek beds and a decent set of blokes has me rating this one of the best rides this year. Found some lvl 2 fellas in need of some help, but we got them sorted quick, had to ...

Re: Just riding ..

Got to ride yesterday, with a more 'experienced' group of gentlemen, think the average age was well over 50. Was a blast, needed to drag a bunch of bikes over obstacles at uncle Jim's place, had long fast downhills, some serious hill climbs and a boulder river that would make anyone jealous. The old...

Ride reports

Howzit all, On this weekends ride, we had a bit of a chat regarding ride reports. It was mentioned that a lot of rides are organized but not always reported on. The feeling in the group was that it should be 'mandatory' for someone to post a report after the ride, even if there are no photos, but ju...

Tallarook 4 Aug

I will start the report, had a nice relaxing day in tallarook, a decent handful of blokes that showed up. Got to lose my sweep rider virginity as well as try show how fast one can go downhill. All in all was well led by Riles and associates, only had to do some bush bashing in one spot, a prime exam...

Re: Kinglake May 25

Had a great day out, fully enjoyed it, had to take a power nap when I got home

Riding behind Riles when he did his impression of being a ballerina was very entertaining to watch

Re: Berg build

Been looking at the KTM 300, the first ones that had electric start, 2008 or there about, but majority of them that I have seen either have a blown engine or completely rusted to pieces and then people want like $3k for them. I would say $3k for one that at least runs would be my budget, as I would ...

Re: Berg build

I'm a bit late to the party here, I am thinking of doing something similar, want to get an old 2 stroke and breath some new life into it. Where would you guys go looking for a nice cheap one, that can be saved? Looking at market place, these people want to charge the price of a new bike for somethin...
