Simply Irresistible Woky
Simply Irresistible Woky.
Shaun called a ride at Woky. After a long dry summer, seeing footage of big slippery hills & flowing streams was a sight for sore eyes. 5 turned up to be punished, ktmshaun, WRFPaul, MickKal, Martyn & MexicanCraig300. Shaun promised hills and he delivered. Within 10 minutes we were heading down the side of a hill where Shaun & Paul almost synchronised their off's. Paul was having a good wrestle with gravity all the way down. We hit the bottom & tackled it going up, it was the first time I've boiled my bike in years. For the next couple of hours the lead was shared & we hit a mixture of flowing tracks, tight tracks & hills until we eventually stumbled across Bob's Hill. After having a bit of a breather we headed up to the top via a side track. More fast flowing tracks back to the car for a bit of fuel & a feed then back out for some more punishment Shaun had lined up for us. We headed off in another direction, North I think, to some other hills. We stopped at the bottom of a big mother of a hill, ruts, rocks & steep inclines, all the good stuff. Shaun & I tackled this one, both of us a long way up yet probably a long way from the top. We finished off with a couple more easier climbs & flowing tracks back to the cars. 80k's roughly, of hard work. Back to the Woky Pub for a refreshing cold beer & it was good! Great ride, SOTD would probably go to Paul for finesse, I think it happened in slow motion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Jnt0LNuJ8g&feature=youtu.be |
