Taylors Arm via Farmers Trail

The boys met at Jacks Crossing

Davo made us laugh by running over his helmet in the ute

His helmet was somewhat more narrow and uncomfortable

Roses Road race mode

The snotty hill on the fenceline stopped a few

Some just got off and pushed

Waiting for the stragglers
Davo's DT200 gets a flat

Back to Greenhills Road


Top of Browns Trail

Near where Scrappy may have spotted Malcolm Naden
The Pub with No Beer

Jono gets a flat at the pub

Couple of blokes from Stuarts Point

Phil gets into a tyre change

Jake takes a detour thru the scrub on Wilsons Trail

Wilsons Trail going down.

Phil and I stop for a breather

Jono at the Collombatti Trig




The crew splits up



















There was some smoke coming off this tyre a minute ago

It was steaming

Vince Strang Motorcycles DR650 Photo Competition

Vince Strang is running a photo competition to win a $200 open order in his shop.

I'd ask anyone who visits this page to please give me a vote.

It would be much appreciated. Link is here>Vince Strang DR650 Photo Competition

My DR650 could do with some heated handgrips to make my rides more comfortable.

You will find my old yellow DR650SE on the Willi Willi Road heading into Carrai Plateau.

Thanks gang.
