Cruisy run to Murry Bridge, nobody there...........Shit I hope he didn't mean Sunday

Emu pulls up followed by Aussi................trio of Erzbergs.

Kev rolls in ...............we are set .a crush of Orange.....(even tho Con couldn't be with us on this ride there was still a 640 in the mix lol)

I really had no idea what to expect, but turns out we stuck to the railway line the whole way, it was a good run for the bigger bikes to stretch there legs and get a bit of a feel for some higher speed running.

Started off a big tricky with plenty of overgrown grass.

[/IMG]

we sort of worked out a pecking order fairly early on, with one of the brothers leading followed by Kev , myself and either Emu or Aussie with those guys in radio contact the whole time. Not a great deal of dust, pretty good clean ride once we got past the high grass earlier in the run.

Then it came time to cross over the railway line.....Fuck I hate the....just hate railway lines at the best of times (usally cash on them) let alone the big Erzberg Iam still coming to grips with......

Spat the dummy and motioned Emu to come over and ride it for me ..........got the camera out and fired out just in time.

Thanks Emu

Emu had a Go Pro running and went ahead at stragic times to get some footage.

Then it was his turn.........

Aussi waiting with the camera further down the track

[/IMG]

I forgot to worry about my own personal saftey until after Emu went past at about 80kph............

bit of this as well............

Lameroo for lunch

[IMG]

In this photo Emu's fly is full zipped up.............you had to be there....

[/IMG]

came across some Ariel boys a long way from home heading to the pub for lunch. (Gav and Eddie a local land owner) a a couple of others who headed straight for the pub..

The trip back was a bit faster (always is apparently) as we all got a bit more comfortable, I was sitting between 90 and 100 kph most of the way.

had a fantastic day out .thx

Such a simple thing as crossing a railway line and I always know I'm going to stuff it up. Got used to it though when we were doing the railway line from Willaston to Wasleys.... good read Adrian.

I'm still uploading the fillum I'll stick it in here when it's done it's taking forever I'm not putting the railway crossing bit in Trev it was like trying to get a big old bull to jump over a cattle grid

Gasman_ADV · 10-14-2012, 01:04 AM

I wanted to add a few things.....

this is pretty much what was left behind after Kev and been wringing the 640's neck all day .................I reckon he rode the knickers off that thing.

[IMG]

[/IMG]

I was the slowest of the bunch (crush :)) but Kev held a cracking pace all day.

I also thanked and commented to the other guys about how safe I felt riding with them, no pressure do anything, no problem if i stopped for a photo etc . I just felt comfortable with these guys, just a really good buzz all day.

I learnt quite a bit about the bike and i have quite a few ideas about what and how for the suspension.......etc.

I had a bloody good day out.

thx again

A.

Top day for it Adrian.
Train tracks are only a worry if you're going slow.....momentum's the key!
Would have loved to have been there but getting the car out & ready for a prospective buyer took me pretty much all day.
Pity....would have been good to catch up with Kev & the Erzberg Bro's.
Some good tracks by the looks of it.....how many km's by the end of the day?
Cheers,
Con

Gasman_ADV · 10-14-2012, 03:50 AM

426 k's on my clock

emuooz · 10-14-2012, 12:36 PM

Here it is

LC4nicator · 10-14-2012, 01:39 PM

Some nice footage there Emu.
Good to see Adrian's getting more track experience on the big bird.
I shudder a little these days after viewing those high speeders, knowing what it feels like going over the bars.
Looking forward to catching up over a beer soon.
Con.

emuooz · 10-14-2012, 02:43 PM

Adrian is getting the hang of it he did well be good to get you out as well:)

Sol Erzenberg · 10-15-2012, 08:57 PM

Looked like a great day out was had by all, it would have been good to join you all on the day with another orange bike but I was already booked up..

Count me in for next time fellas, would be a good track to hit at speed after some decent rains, extra grip & no dust.

Cheers, Sol..
