Title: Pre Year Ride at Don's
Post by: oz555ktm on January 31, 2015, 09:04:42 pm: Had a Invite to Don's Ranch 90 kms North of Canberra to do Day and took the the time to check out
a place for apossible Vinduro not far from Dons Ranch .

Don lives on a small block of land ..Don said I got a bit of a loop it would be good for a bit of a Burn ??
well every time a did a lap I found a diffent track ..Only Don know the way ..

But had Fun that what Vinduro are all about... Bikes ,Mates and Fun ....

It was lay back no stress A ride and a chat .
I tell you the Grass will be very Green around Dons Shed every one telling old Bike stories ..

Every Saturday arvo for years me and the mates fired up the DTs, TSs, ITs etc and went bush. Rode around a bit, stopped and talked crap for a bit, found a cafe and ate some burgers, and got home at dark with a big grin and enough good vibes to make it thru to next weekend...
