Good call … 4-stroke eats the sand. Beach/dunes at night is a blast in summer too. ATV WA are up that way and have a bar open when they run motos… could be a good wheyhey point to add to your gps. Just saying…

Cass I took the 500 and put the skinny tank back on it, good fun. Looked at the GPS last night and it was Guilderton that we rode to not Seabird!

What bike did you take MickKal ?

I went for a ride with a Crusty newbie Shane and his mate Greg today. We started from 2 Rocks and then rode to Guilderton and back right in the old Crusty Heartland of days gone by. Shane had some mint tracks and we did heaps of hills and dunes. It was also nice to start from 2 Rocks and get straight into all the fun stuff and just bypass all the whooped out tracks near the OVT for a change. Also there was almost no dust due to mainly riding beach sand and with a cool sea breeze it was a good option for some summer time riding. Highly recommend that any sand lovers join in next time Shane calls a ride. Easily my favorite ride this year.

Pounce good to hear you’re going to have crack at Finke this year
Unfortunately you you won’t be able to race your quad!!

Wow, what a time to stop by and see how you are all going! Celebrating 10 years of the upgraded website, after the 10 years of my original website! So good that Crusty Quinns is still ridin' after all these years. Never too old to roost!

In March this year it will be 10 years since Tiger built the new website design all by himself.

Nothing is ever lost from the internet, even back when I had more ride points than Tommy!

I'm going to take two weeks & ride to Alice Springs & back to watch the Finke this June.

Who's in?

Mike, a perfect ride as your first big one.

Cheers for the ride today Tommy good mix of tracks & actually didn’t feel as hot as it was with it all flowing nicely until the flat tyres, a double whammy in one hit never seen that before but it didn’t take long to fix them & the beers washed the dust down 👌👌

JNR

Thank's all the Crusty Dirt Barrons for a great 2021. Looking forward to an even better 2022. I got a new helmet from Santa so I'm all set to rock and roll.

Merry Xmas Pounce and to all Crusties! Happy New Year and hope we all get away on an overseas adventure soon, xx

Pounce

Merry Xmas to everyone & a Happy New Year.

Just remember it's meant to be 2022, not 2020 too.

10 years ago today I started on my first ever ride into Laos.
It was my first time ever doing a ride alone in a foreign country that I had never been to & I've learnt so much since that 1st trip.
I so desperately want to go back.

That's why you're paid the big dollars Marty.

To be pedantic, the control parameter ie distance from Bunga is customarily the horizontal or x axis.

Good come back Pounce but it’s an unusual look on your face 😆

Geez there’s a happy snap of Pounce 😁

Great weekend Tommy, it was a perfect shakedown ride for myself and Jamie on our steads. Always learn so much from you guys who have got many camp rides under your belt.

Lesson #1, when packing up in the morning make every move purposeful otherwise you’ll fluff around, shifting stuff around and delay departure.

Days were hot, mozzie’s came out in droves, tracks were great, plenty of dust and some flat tyre drama’s to make it an adventure packed weekend.

So many tracks and campsites to explore in this area, where one overnighter just scratches the surface.

Looking forward to more camp outs this summer, bikes are ready just need to lock in weekends and destinations 👍

Pounce

Another good weekend, even accounting for the endless dust.
The swim Saturday arvo was a welcome relief.
Thanks Tommy for the call, Jack, Mick, Jamie & Bunga for the ride.
I only used the GoPro once, it wasn't worth it with all the dust otherwise
Some pics in the gallery too.

Thanks Tommy for organizing the Collie Ride. We ended being a bit short on time on sat so we camped at a spot on the river which turned out great except for when the giant Huntsman spider ran up my arm and freaked me out. Really enjoyed the Sun Morning tour of the 3 Dams, Kapwari, Stockton and Glen Mervyn. I was king of the flat tyres for this ride, got a stake in the back tyre on Sat and then another on Sunday around noon. So decided to head for home before I got another. It was a long bitumen ride from welly dam to perth on 500 but I did manage to slip in a nice break at the Pinjarra Bakery to sample the 2021 best chunky beef pie award in Australia. I gave it 10 out of 10.

Thanks for the ride today Tommy and the team. Good flowing ride with lots of different bits thrown in pretty slippery and dusty with a few Jesus Christ moments along the way but glad I had the Recluse clutch on some of those rutted out up hills on the 790. Have a great night out in the bush drinking and telling stories.
