Before the attempts at the dunes were done and XXX had seen that i was not going to try he said to me that bhe will show me the flamingoes and salt mines.......Mmmmmm I took another look at the dunes and before he knew it I had mounted my Beast and went up the first dune..... :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

I got to that crest couldnt believe it!!!! stopped to gather myself again and guess what i fell over..... ;D ;D

I then was helped to get her up and then you will note that I had to get down I have this height issue......

Out come the duck feet got the feel and went down again very gingerly..... :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

This is a huge machine to take down!!!!!

I was down again without incident but back up again and again and agin  till i eventually rode all the way around to base of dune 2 .....BOY I WAS ON A ROLL ...I WAS HAVING FUN ;D ;D

SO LEO I RODE THE DUNES STUKKEND IN MY WORLD ;D 8) 8) 8)

This must surely be the pinnacle for me and yea I think that XXX was totally surprised at this mad WD gal especially after he had said to me on the one section there are some difficult sections coming up and that he thinks he should rather load my bike..... he was really concerned about this gal!!!!

make no mistake there were some really difficult sections

All I want is MORE and so much to learn!!!

There are still some more pics coming....we did damage our rims on the 'witpad' pics to follow

and naturally the wrap up...... ;D ;D

Hey guys you all ROCK Im not finished there's still the wrap up  ;D ;D

WORK is keeping me very busy and out of mischief.... ???

I think at this point in time credit must go to the WDs that I have been riding with....I have learnt so much from them and the tips and encouragement(from all of you) all this comes together and Leftless who took me for a a quick hard 2hr exposure bike handling session!!!!

Above all to XXX who has given me an opportunity of a lifetime I cant say thank you enough........(no catch guys!!!! ;) ;))

As Tok Tokkie says this is a LIFE ALTERING EXPERIENCE !!!!

Guys thanks all I can say there is so much more to learn and this is just the tip of the iceberg... 8) 8)

Well I like the the tip of the iceberg ;D ;D

Will carry on with the wrap up later ;)



 
I just LOVE it when a girl succeeds in what is sterotypically a mans domain..! Dammit. WELL DONE.

(I will be working out a sneaky way to show my lady this RR... I want her on a bike!)

Thanks for the post, and your EXHUBERANCE!!!!!!!!!
