Yes it was an excellent weekend as usual, enjoyed the racing and I did the the back end of that XL during my race it was after the big downhill in the orchard. Not the best one ever but will up load more once they are on my PC.

yeah its always a unreal event and track the aussie team had
a few bike issues i had a faulty gearbox and clutch ,ballard had jetting issues then gearbox
chris hall did a gearbox bearing but they fitted another motor thanks to maico matty
my cr500 ran well was a blast to ride track was rough on saturday and rougher on sunday
big crowd again lots of carnage everyone was on the gas geoff ballard would have smoked the over 50s
if the bike didnt fail he was riding great i ended up doing 2 practices and 8 motos over 2 days
i think i know my way around there now ha was sore though came off in practice on the downhill
in the field and landed on my side and shoulder ,still sore took painkillers all weekend but that wasnt going to stop me, full on races all classes 60+ riders with 2 gates one behind the other
follow me to first turn

As good as Ballard is his moto scores in the des nations were 17th, 18th and 2 dnf's. Unless you've been there you've got no idea of the competition...

He was the fastest Aussie there but still not competitive in the des nations race. Was my post that hard to understand?
