Carrai Plateau Ride

The MV Adventure Riders Group on facebook has been working pretty well. We've managedto get good numbers on quite a few rides lately. This Sundays ride plan was to meet at Willawarrin, then head up into the Carrai Plateau area and down into Youdales.


Twelve bikes showed for this one, with the majority of them being KTM's.


Only two major issues over the day, Kingy punched a hole in his crankcase and all his oil fell out. This led to a mild siezure of the engine, which was his first indication that something was wrong.


Alan ran into a 4wd with his nice new KTM and smashed his headlight/guard. He was lucky to escape serious injury. with only a few scrapes to show for it.

Apart from this the day was pretty damn good, with low dust levels thanks to a storm the previous night. Traction wasnt a problem and the roads were in great condition.
