Hey oldskool PE175's rule! Well they did when I was young and had my brand new PE175T. I just loved dragging off my mates on their IT175's and XR200's etc. Unfortunately my frame cracked at the swingarm pivot points after trying to be the next Dale Buggins, remember him? I even met him once. I think that was before the frame cracked :-\! Dave in Brisbane

Welcome oldy.
Mt Druitt?Thats bought back some fab memories.
I remember all the surrounding areas in and around Mt Druitt etc,there were big areas to ride and bugger all people to annoy.No I'm not from the area,used to play footy teams from all those districts,and regularly went to Jamison Pk to watch the mighty Panthers get flogged.From Whalan,Tregear,to Mt Druitt it was to me a riders paradise with land everywhere.
We used to ride in the state forest off Richmond rd I think.Can't remember the name of the forest though,lost interest riding there after the Dirt Squad pegged us.They didn't chase us,just waited for us to return to where the car and trailer was stashed. >:(
Been to Coomera a few times,both the track near Dreamworld and the one along Upper Coomera rd.
Cops seem to be hitting Coomera hard from what I've heard recently.


                                              Cheers,Mark.
I used to drink a lot.
I still do,but I used to,too.
