I think some of those blokes live just up the road from me ........... Well were going to give the driveway a bit of a tidy up tomorrow and then full tanks of fuel and away we go . Got to say I think this loop will be awesome another shower to damp the top again and you should be able to really hook in . Did a lap on Saturday morning with property owner and his sun and boy didn't want to stop it was that good....

There will be a green team meeting at the Boorowa pie shop on the way up as well!



Is that critter that Werner is wearing on his head still kicking?

Don't do it Don they might be contagious.

Bikes are packed ready to go. Also will have a few of my left over XR/XL bits on board for sale and on the way up am picking up a new project bike -  IT250H. So happy days ahead  ;D. hopefully the weather Gods smile on us like they did at Nimmitabel last year but if it's wet then at least I will have the DT400 tractor on hand for the task.

In case you were wondering it was an 85' CR250R. Then a 76' DT250 and a 01' XR250 and it didn't stop there

HI people ,
       If you get lost scared , worried or just want to talk you can ring me on 0429 805096. But the riding will be a blast no matter what the weather .This area can soak up a heap of rain but as Dennis said not that much forecast so get your bike and gear and come on out and enjoy a good weekend .

I'm hoping the camp area can soak up the rain and the fire is hot tl drive of the night's clouds - the trails can do their worst ????

Word from Greg earlier this arvo:

No rain on the loop today, despite some in town.
The loop can absorb another 75mm of rain without turning to poop.
Road in is a bit greasy but not too bad.
Event will run regardless.

The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Many thanks to Greg, Dennis and the rest of the VTR team for another well organised vinduro event.

We are also very lucky to have land owners like Peter.  Without them, we wouldn't get to enjoy our passion. 

Hope everyone got home safely.

cheers, Ken

How good despite the weather cutting it a bit short - or maybe the bonus thrill of the weather?
And how much fun was the raffle!
PS I loved the quick shade over the shower - plenty of hanging space and it seemed to hold the warmth from the steaming water.

Once again thanks heaps to everyone involved in putting on another great VTR event. Although the weather was not in our favor the loop held up very well and made for a fantastic days riding and the overcast conditions meant temperatures were a lot warmer than I expected so that was a real bonus. As well as getting in quite a few laps, this time I also managed to stop and take some pics and video while out on the loop  ;)
So here's some pics to start with and more to come.
For my first lap out I took the old DT400 and did the full hard loop and all was going really well right up until the last section through the creek where I got caught up on a greasy root.
