brownie Being the avid flower appreciator that I am (not to mention my current floral arrangement 101 course I am completing at midwest Tafe college) I will of course be lining up in the old stomping ground to school the lot of you in riding the red dirt.
So There!

Colin Sat, Aug 28 2010 16:26Crusty to the core (181 rides)
Colin Roley - If Brownie comes up with that lame excuse again I'll have to ride Iron man. Merv had no intention of going to Perth for the weekend and is only going for an excuse because he is toooo scared.

KLXTony Sat, Aug 28 2010 15:34Player (4 rides)
KLXTony Looking at doing the P/E Colin. Heading out there this Wed/Thur to mark it out with Simon. Spent last Wed checking the place out and finding some loops. Not going to comment this time on lack of dust as Leighton Station was dusty by the time the event was ran. Wild flowers are in full bloom out there for all you new age metro sexual guys (Brownie).

merv Sat, Aug 28 2010 15:13Diehard (12 rides)
merv Sorry Col I'm in Perth next weekend.

roley Sat, Aug 28 2010 13:21SUPER STAR (143 rides)
roley Brownie will probably have some lame excuse!

Colin Sat, Aug 28 2010 12:24Crusty to the core (181 rides)
Colin Mullewa Pony Express - I,m in. OK Brownie or Merv - who is up for it.

roley Sat, Aug 28 2010 11:28SUPER STAR (143 rides)
roley Come-on CQers I might be pulling a Brownie (the bunged up knee excuse! LOL) but where are the rides being called? Its the winter time - we live for the winter months and I can only sit at home and think about a ride, though the knee is on the mend!

Oh for the next year's WCST ride please don't call it after the 17th June as I will be on my 8 day Postie Bike Run fund-raising ride to Broome for the Toodyay Lions Club & the Royal Flying Dr.

FYI

Geraldton MX Club - Pony Express Sept 5th

Woodradden Farm Mullewa
4Hr Pony Express / Ironman Event

Camping:
Camping area is located at the start, great spectator viewing…..that’s all that is needed for a great weekend away……
There will be a BBQ after the event.

Course Details:
Natural flowing tracks, breakaway bush with a number of river crossings following the contour hill sides with single-trails. All areas are challenging for all levels of rider. Lap distance is approx 15ks

Tony Sat, Aug 28 2010 10:11Diehard (26 rides)
Tony For anyone that is keen and did not manage a ride today, Katanning Offroad Club are holding a 4 hour Pony Express tommorrow. Hooters and I will be going down to take part. Give one of us a call if you are interested.

darin Sat, Aug 28 2010 10:08Diehard (31 rides)
darin Well, No CQer called a ride and I have been caught and sentenced to hard labour by the "Housework Police" :(

Colin Sat, Aug 28 2010 09:10Crusty to the core (181 rides)
Colin Thanks Micky!!

mick450 Sat, Aug 28 2010 00:54LEGEND (65 rides)
mick450 Don't know the dates for WCS next year yet. It will more than likely be in June around the same time. Georgina & I spoke about dates and we decided to wait to see what other events were on so that our ride didn't clash with any other ride.

Colin Fri, Aug 27 2010 23:22Crusty to the core (181 rides)
Colin Who is looking after the WCS tour booking date for next year. I want to book some leave in advance and do not want to miss out on the ride.

Fueltanker Allen Fri, Aug 27 2010 18:52Diehard (27 rides)
Fueltanker Allen A bit quiet you say, 15 reports in the last two months shows a keen group. Welcome Felix.

Pounce Fri, Aug 27 2010 17:26LEGEND (71 rides)
Pounce Hey Felix, it seems to be a bit quiet at the moment.
Just keep an eye on the board & the events section for anything going on.

Felix Fri, Aug 27 2010 16:50Visitor (0 rides)
Hey guys.. Just wanna introduce myself.
Moved over here from NSW a few months back and looking for riding buddies. Im keen most weekends plus can squeeze the odd midweek ride in.

Biggles Thu, Aug 26 2010 18:25Diehard (12 rides)

Tommy Thu, Aug 26 2010 15:36LEGEND (50 rides)
Tommy Biggles that is the same model I have if I can find the website that I got my maps from I will let you know.

Biggles Wed, Aug 25 2010 19:18Diehard (12 rides)
Biggles I have just purchased a Garmin 60CSX and I am looking for advice on suitable topo maps, possible alternatives to the expensive Garmin Aus Topo.

Something compatible with what is in use with the Crusty's.

PS Nice ride report Tige

TigeR Wed, Aug 25 2010 16:32LEGEND .. sort of (64 rides)

wrex Brownie

brownie Tue, Aug 24 2010 15:06Diehard (10 rides)
brownie Col,
No dirt music for me this weekend.
Have the family arriving from Perth.

Tommy Mon, Aug 23 2010 20:06LEGEND (50 rides)
Tommy Mick I just want everyone to see how clean the bottom of my bike is.

mick450 Mon, Aug 23 2010 19:39LEGEND (65 rides)
mick450 Onya Tommy for becoming a LEGEND and turning PINK.
PS. Nice pic, Are you taking some soil samples?????

Tommy Mon, Aug 23 2010 19:26LEGEND (50 rides)
Tommy Great report TigeR as usual now that I’m a so called Legend I don’t want to forget my true status as a rider hence the new intro photo LOL.

Fueltanker Allen Mon, Aug 23 2010 19:05Diehard (27 rides)
Fueltanker Allen Thanks for the report TigeR.
Your the only bloke who could get away with calling me slow but make it sound like a good thing.
Always entertaining TigeR.
Great work silver tongue.

Colin Mon, Aug 23 2010 18:24Crusty to the core (181 rides)
Colin Love your work Tiger.

Midwest ride on Saturday - Heading out towards the MOR to ride west of the Highway near the Bridge!! Let me know if you are in.

Tommy - I'll race you to 200 rides.

roley Mon, Aug 23 2010 17:45SUPER STAR (143 rides)
roley TigeR another great report and good to find out what I missed out on! Thanks again guys for the help on Saturday and its goods to show how the Crusty spirit of looking out for each other on the trail and the Cornerman system really does work. TigeR thanks for stepping in as the Sweep but yeah the fashion police would be making comment about your style!

Congats Tommy on being a Legend even if you took out Phil! Oh Tommy I just love your new Intro pic! LOL

Hope you are OK Phil?

I am slowly mending, seems to be just a lot of swelling (on the knee!) that an elevated leg, with ice packs and a compression bandage is sorting out! Might be out for a few weeks though!

darin Mon, Aug 23 2010 17:30Diehard (31 rides)
darin Great report, thanks TigeR. I like the comparison to the MF135, I think a few will choke when they read that LOL.

TigeR Mon, Aug 23 2010 17:15LEGEND .. sort of (64 rides)
TigeR Report up for Sat ... who's a legend now! Don't forget to wave Tommy when you ride past me on the Intro board.

Steve Mon, Aug 23 2010 10:44Diehard (29 rides)
Steve Yes, Saturday's ride was eventful and enjoyable as always. Once I got the DRZ safely parked in the muddy rut, I dismounted in time to see Roley and Tommy racing to get their cameras out. Their comments seemed to imply that they were extemely happy to witness me bogged up to the axle.

Later on we found out that Roley had damaged himself attempting to earn SOTD. I voted to leave him waiting on the side of the track until we returned from the roadhouse, but the others thought it best that I wet-nurse him back to the cars while they keep riding. I'm sure they were full of concern for Roley's wellbeing as they powered off.

Thanks to Darin for calling and leading the ride, Roley for sweeping, and Tommy for getting my bike out of the rut. I hope Roley's injury isn't serious, although he's got his wife convinved that the pain extends up to his groin. LOL

TigeR Sun, Aug 22 2010 21:57LEGEND .. sort of (63 rides)
TigeR I'm not happy with my colour co-ordination in that shot :-)

darin Sun, Aug 22 2010 19:47Diehard (30 rides)
darin That is a good picture of TigeR, I also like the one of Steve with his hands on his hips looking at his bike stuck in the water/rut. As the saying goes "a penny for your thoughts Steve" LOL.

Fueltanker Allen Sun, Aug 22 2010 18:53Diehard (26 rides)
Fueltanker Allen Nice pic in the gallery TigeR.

TigeR Sun, Aug 22 2010 14:49LEGEND .. sort of (63 rides)
TigeR Excellent day yesterday, thanks Darin - well led, great tracks. Hope you're healing Roley & Phil.

We tried to get Tommy to do a report to explain what being a legend means to him ... "I am a legend, you do the report" was the reply or something like that :-) ... report on the way ... later!

WR Ross Sun, Aug 22 2010 14:13Diehard (14 rides)
WR Ross Top ride yesterday thanks Darin,Tiger and Roley.Fifty rides up for Tommy well done Legend.

Tommy Sun, Aug 22 2010 12:47Diehard (49 rides)
