Living the American Dream
I felt like testing the Funduro a bit and thought of the easiest piece of gravel i could do. Ahh Groot Aardbol i thought. :thumleft:
Advertised the ride got a huge turnout. :thumleft:
Dunno why but everytime we stopped i missed some people. Hope they not sitting next to the road with broken bikes or something. :-\
Gathering point
On the way to the Aardbol my bike was running beautifully. On the gravel it was a nightmare.... if i had false teeth i would have lost or broken them. Got to the aardbol and tuned the suspension a bit.
On my way down from the aardbol the rear suspension was now fine but the front still way hard.... stopped to let some air out of the TKC. Cool suspension almost perfect. :thumleft:
Next we stopped at Canon Rocks
We had lovely lunch in Boknes. From Boknes we went back to Alexandria and hit the old farm roads back to PE.
The farm roads were very entertaining with me getting some good speed from the red lady on gravel. I had some close calls in some of the corners but the TKC tyre is lovely. It grips on any shit. Once again i approached a turn to fast and i was on the brakes, lotsa sand in the corner i locked up the rear and powered it through..... with big eyes i saw Jman lying under a tree next to the road and then i see his broken Freewind.
Jman with his dislocated right shoulder
The accident scene.... check the spore
Jman checking out the damage to the bike :'(
Herms investigating the accident scene
Jman showing us where he deployed the front brake
Evidence that the corner was very sandy :biggrin:
Just a pic
Thanks to everyone that joined the ride. Hope everyone got home safely. I gave up counting after the Aardbol :bueller:
