Ride Report



Players: Grant, In_Elysium (Garry), Lindsay



Ride: Sat 5th Creek Bed/York



Well it was an early start for the group, meeting up at The Lakes roadhouse at 7am with
We then left in convey to the car park on
the fringe of the creek beds and offloaded. It was looking like I was going to pick up the
prestigious HOG award for the second time after my KaTooM decided to eat a plug before we
had even moved!...but fortunately for me I banged in a new one and at first kick it was up
and smoking.



We started down the creek beds in the opposite direction to usual with Grant leading, and it
doesn't seem to matter what time of the year you take a ride down the creek it always
such a good laugh. The fine clay dust against the morning sun made for some interesting
moments as well!!! From there Grant lead us up to the new section through some fast sandy
corners, short whooped out section, a couple of hill climbs, then up to the new CQ jump area
and then finally back down the creek beds.



Overall was a top ride with nobody really getting close to nabbing SOTD, though Garry sure
gave it a crack rolling backwards 3 metres on a 45 degree incline after loosing traction!
And Grant had a moment with a small blackboy in the sanding section, but neither really
worthy contenders. ROTD would have to go Grant for leading us throughout most of the ride.
Another top ride fellas, cheers.
