What started out to be a small ride for a couple of newbies soon grew in numbers once the invite changed to slow old buggers included. I was taking Danny for another spin as he was still not quite confident in getting out on a full blown Crusty ride. Mick (DRZMick) called and said he was a road bike rider with little experience in the dirt and would love to join us. Tommy (old bastard) then called and told me he had a new set of wheels and would prefer a tonker along and wasnt keen running the new WR in on a Micks thick sand tour. Within an hour Beau and Tiger and Carlo were on the phone all asking to be part of the day and would appreciate an easy ride. Roleys mate Evan is also a newbie and came along for the ride. Of course, there is no show without punch and Col Mac came along to head up the field.

We assembled at the normal spot, had the normal riders talk and headed out on the normal trails. Sounds a bit boring? Not at all. Although the lack of rain kept the dust in the air, we had a good steady ride and plenty of laughs. I found Tiger on two occasions hugging the ground after dropping into those gotcha holes (you know where) and attracting the SOTD award. Poor Carlo was left on a corner and after a bit of confusion was left sitting there for a considerable period. When we found him, he had smoked three cigarettes and was beginning to write a letter in the sand in case he ended up perishing out there.

Tommy picked up the ROTD because ........... He nominated himself and said he did a great job on the new bike and deserved the award. Evan cut the ride short and went home on the tar, Danny picked his level up 10 points and is ready for a full blown CQ ride and the new guy Mick will be fine to get out with the boys for the real thing. Beau, Tiger and Carlo all rode like girls and I am sure after a couple more beginners ride will be ready to rub shoulders with the big boys!!!!!

Great to ride with you all today. Thanks Col Mac for leading and Pete for sweeping. Thanks Roley for ..... nothing. Whoops, for driving me there.




DOES ANYONE KNOW A JOKE ABOUT A ISRAELI, AN IRISHMAN AND A BLACKFELLA!!!!!


A QUICK REGROUP.


TOMMY'S NEAR STEAD. THE OTHER DRZ BOYS ARE A LITTLE ANGRY AT HIM.


THE SOTD RIDER TELLS WOG BOY WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO LAND ON HIS ARSE!!!
