He has spent countless hours following roo trails through the bush & on one occasion he foolishly decided to take a RAKE.
10yrs, 1,000hrs, 9 rakes, 6 pair boots & countless blisters , the mad bastard's still at it !!
After two 25k & one 10k singletracks on the town's southside, he's now working...
In the 'good times' when I see a truck load of cattle worth a fortune...I wannabe a farmer. :)
In the 'bad times' when I see a truck load of hay worth a fortune....it's naah, stuff that !! :(
Sadly, one rain event doesn't end a drought (even 120mls).
It was VERY heavy....some filled the dams, which was great...& the rest headed for S.A.
The grass won't grow now until Sept/Oct & then only if there's good rain beforehand.

I personally would not go the extra $ or grams.....the std one is beefy & heavy enough for me (but I'm an OLD dude)
The intention was definitely to try & find a reason...otherwise one will be waiting, waiting, waiting for it to happen again.
The chains never been on the big gog (well, not while I've had it) but that's beside the point I guess.
Whenever I buy a new bike I aim to get one that's been boxed until...
Shit, I know how to do that...first thing I do when I get a new bike.
Plastic transparent flouro…...bright purple one side, pink the other...…& it looks REALLY good.
Don't worry I'm chilled....didn't you notice the :) on my bar end explanation post.
I'm all for the good humoured posts & at the same time happy to respond to any snaky ones.
AND I'm still waiting for a 'good bike' recommendation ?
The photo above is at a 25k singletrack which I scratched out (solo) over 2-3yrs worth of Saturdays. It is about 5ks from my home & nowhere on the track is further than 2ks from my ute. The majority of it would be within 1.5ks. SO, why the F#%K would I be lugging around a bag full of shit that I...
