23 riders took part
22 of them rode in dust :-P

2 riders went for unwanted swim’s
I got wet boots from helping riders through the river

5 went home at the 40k, 11am mark (2 due to bike issues, i.e.water)
2 riders got punctures
18 riders finished the day
15 riders had smiles when they left
3 riders couldn’t be bothered saying good bye
Christian from Germany had a ball
Wife was happy with the day

And I managed to float on and off Phil’s Christmas card list all day
:)

Thanks for a good out Al.

Plenty of variety again except the dust was the same. Nearly got the rain you were praying for.

The only trouble I had all day was trying to stay on when I stopped. Some free laughs for all who saw it.
It's just more time to be flat out!

Yes, I saw one Ken. Another funny moment was when the guy on a WR450 put it down on an up hill, I stopped to get his bike off him only to realise he was on a giant ant nest....He jumped and scratched the rest of the day...

Saw a couple Ken. Dont stress, as new to the sport as you are. A few more years of riding you will get the hang of it.
