The conditions were treacherous in spots, however the IT stayed upright and tractored through the snottiest terrain

I made the first checkpoint well within the allocated time and had a blast on the special test.Alas, no happy ending.
The next section was disastrous. I lost all gears after negotiating a steep clay hill decorated with a couple of other competitors.After some tinkering I managed to engage 2nd and nurse the bike through some slick terrain before the old girl gave up the ghost.Full credit to the A3VE recovery team, they had me out in about 2 hours after I called and special thanks to the boys from Yarram club who helped push the bike out of the single track.

Sorry to hear that Tony. And also sorry we didn't catch up over the weekend.

I had a blast (in the rally section). We left on minute 34 and had a hoot of a ride to the checkpoint, where we clocked in ONE minute late! The run back to the park ferme was just grouse. The second loop was even more funner! We arrived at the checkpoint TWELVE minutes ahead of time! Must have been flying!. Back to park ferme with work time (re-fuel) and park up.

The PE ran like a dream all day and looking at the state of some bikes (and riders), I probably could have entered the competitive group and done alright. Unfortunately, me and my crew went out to Irish Murphy's on Saturday night, where we proceeded to consume our collective body weight in beer, and coupled with the torrential rain overnight, guided us towards the decision NOT to ride on Sunday. From the look of the conditions, that was probably a good call!

All in all, a great event. From a rally point of view, the whole timing thing was a bit of a wank, but I haven't had that much fun trail riding for a long time.

It was a great venue Serge and good to see the PE had a run.
Irish Murphy's would have been a grin.
Catch up at Yarram?
