Hi haven't been riding for a couple of years
But wondering if anyone is doing capel on the 12th Sept?

Just to make sure i checked with the Harvey shire today and we were in state forest. There is a house in the area which at the time we didn't know. So while it may have been someone protecting their crop, I'm thinking more likely and a little info from the cops it was the land owner that doesn't like dirt bikes. While i have come across land owners that don't dirt bikes and the noise, generally a quick chat, say you will keep clear next time and all is good, what this idiot did is way over the top. I have seen the police again and now waiting to see what happens.

Unfortunately I had a little incident on Friday night and ended up with a sore hand and was unable to ride on Saturday with Dazza and Glin, sounds like I dodged a bullet! (Dad joke intended)

Tommy

Maybe you were near his illegal crop

Bunga

Very serious and concerning. I guess the guy shooting doesn’t know what the inside of a cell looks like.

Bloody hell ... adventure taken to the next level >8^O

That unbelievable Dazza now we know your faster then a speeding Bullet

Can you give us the exact spot Daz, Mike & I went through there a couple of weeks ago, keen to see if we were close to that spot.

Harvey Ride
Last Saturday headed out on the Harvey [ Honeymoon Rd }side to check out somewhere different to ride. Started off with three but Dave 2 slow had to pull out so it was myself and my mate Glin. The ride started off promising with good technical 4wd tracks right through to full on, way too hard extreme hill climbs. Now i would like to think that i am a respectful person and not go where i shouldn't be riding and Glin is the same. I started up following some old tracks and we ended up on a rocky out crop only to get the first warning shot, the second one followed closely and after the third one we thought it was best to get to lower ground and get back to the bottom of the hill ( which we were about to anyway)and get back to the car. We had some more shots fired overhead and we thought best to push the bikes through the bush until we got to a spot where we thought it was safe enough to start up the bikes and get the hell out of there as we could hear the guy but not see him. Needless to say it wasn't much fun bull dogging two bikes through the bush and glad at that point that it was only the two of us.
I did go and speak to the police about it and gave them the spot and info but i don't think they are going to spend any of their time chasing it up.
So lesson learnt, won't go back to that spot and should have gone up to Perth for the pre drink ride and then drinks after. Would have been a lot more fun : )

Planning a short OVT ride this Sat - maybe just 100km.

Tommy

What a great Saturday first the ride then the social in Northbridge both with a great Crustys crew

MickKal

For those that don't already know there is now a Crusty Quinns Facebook group. But no need for panic yet as nothing changes here on this site. The plan is to just duplicate rides posted here onto to the Facebook page as Events to see if we can bump our numbers up a bit. Its an open group so feel free to join.

A great night of drinking and bullshitting was had. That Northcliffe weekend in late September sounds great Jack.

What a great day it was this Saturday on the 8/8/2020 when 8 players came out for a ride to further celebrate 20 yrs of CQ’s and then continue the party that evening at the Mustang bar.

More rides and festivities still to come, so don’t miss out and get involved as these celebrations will sure be our highlights for this messed up year of 2020.

MickKal - Calls the ride, leads the ride, writes the report, leads the charge at the pub! Legend!

Great ride yesterday MickKal - love those "easy" rides. :-)
Yes watching Shaun on that 690 thru' those trails was a sight to behold.

Nice turnout last night, thanks for organising Bunga, I left my Klim jacket at the pub do you have it?
Good photos Ant.

Good to catch up with the crew. Hope the heads are not too cloudy.

Pre Drinks Sawyers ride

Riders MickKal, Tiger, Tommy, Jed, Hazi, Jack, Shaun, Hooters

ROTD Shaun

I put the call out for a nice easy Saturday ride so everybody would be in good shape for the Crustys' 20th Piss up later that night. Eight riders turned up and I was the only two stroke, everyone had brought their four strokes expecting an easy ride. The new guy Shaun was on the big 690 KTM, but he looked like he was big enough to throw it around like a 350, and so we set off with me in front and Tiger at the back. Hit the trails and we managed to loose a few riders with in the first 5 minutes but we got that sorted quickly and carried on. So we were sticking to the plan and cruising along some nice easy tracks but then we saw a new single track and we decided to map it out in one direction.

Nice and easy soon turned into about 3 klms of gnarly rock hopping that stopped in the middle of nowhere. So some bush bashing back to the nearest track and continued on. Did that old school hill near the Lakes, the creek run another hill and plenty of single track but still managed to get back to the Tavern by 12:30 with 90 klms on the clock. Someone who shall remain nameless fell off their bike twice while parked up and Shaun should get ROTD (if he signs up) for making everything look super easy on that big 690. A quick couple of beers at the tavern wrapped up a good day out.

Ant

Cheers for the laughs last night. It was a good night of rock n roll.
Stack of the day to hooters for bailing at 8pm so he didn't get kicked out.....again.

Added a couple of snaps to the gallery.
