When I rode them, same thing happened. Think that trail is quite poorly built in that normal trail speed is waaaay beyond the jumps. Recipe for disaster on first try.Thats the one. Scared myself once or thrice coming into those jumps a bit hot... (which is anything over lukewarm frankly...).
Yeah, easy to come unstuck if you're not super cautious.When I rode them, same thing happened. Think that trail is quite poorly built in that normal trail speed is waaaay beyond the jumps. Recipe for disaster on first try.
Not enough froth?
Yeah, the guy who runs it is a douce - this is not news...
Buck? Disagree. Been a few times, Always looked after us fantastically.Yeah, the guy who runs it is a douce - this is not news...
It's not. There have been more than a few negative reports, including my own interactions. He was just pissed I got Kirsty to drop me at the top of Blue Tier and I rode up the hill from the pub to the top of Atlas - he was pretty rude, and the woman in his shop when I asked for some directions was worse - actually flat out said "why would i help you if youre not paying for shuttle?". Points for honesty I guess, but no points for ensuring I never buy a shuttle from them!Buck? Disagree. Been a few times, Always looked after us fantastically.
Or is a douce a compliment I’m unaware of?
He looks after the people who pay for his shuttles and rental bikes.Buck? Disagree. Been a few times, Always looked after us fantastically.
I believe that the cockroach is a metaphor for NSW, as is the cane toad for Qld.Who are they referring to as cockroaches? The tone of that statement and including “Victorians not allowed” doesn’t sit well with me.

Prompted by a convenient redundancy I deliberately started my own consultancy business in late 2019 so I could control my workload and have more time at home with my kids during their final years before school (currently have a prep and a 4yo kindergartner). I did not plan to have this much time with them! I have loved it (and hated it at times). I really gained an appreciation of what my wife had to deal with day to day as well.Wierd feeling going through sunday night prep for the school week with the big return tomorrow. Of course the big kid has outgrown uniforms which he figured out today after a week of nagging to try.
Not that lockdown was fun but i am going to miss having them around so much.
Badly aimed attempt at humour, no question.Who are they referring to as cockroaches? The tone of that statement and including “Victorians not allowed” doesn’t sit well with me.
Maybe. But the nightmare we’ve been through leaves me with little patience for disparaging remarks or bad humour aimed in our direction. Maybe I’m being a bit sensitive but that sort of attitude doesn’t make me want to throw cash his way.Badly aimed attempt at humour, no question.
I’ve always used Buck and found him great to deal with. Haven’t been to Derby in 3-4 years, mind.
Do the people saying he’s trying to have a monopoly, feel the same way about Blue Dirt on virtually every Victorian mountain?
...and I heard he also refers to someone who gives up easily in the face of difficulty on trail as a "Melbourne".Maybe.

Well I know whose not getting my hard earned dollars when the border opens... eat a dick Vertigo.
Yup, fuck those guys too.Do the people saying he’s trying to have a monopoly, feel the same way about Blue Dirt on virtually every Victorian mountain?
