okes, thanks for pitching. what a lekker ride. big thanks to leftless for the lekker little loops. flip i'm tired now. got home, took my boot off and my calf muscle immediately went into the shape of a tennis ball with a horrible painful cramp that had me screaming like a girl  :eek7:

Wes - i got a good video of your fall.

my laugh of the day still goes to Marc (with a c) with his KTM stickers on his BMW enduro helmet (and bmw city pants and bmw ralley jacket) - --  :imaposer:  - legend.
making it VERY clear (3 stickers on the helmet not so?) that branding is NNNB  :imaposer:
Think i'm gonna get some KTM jocks and a KTM sticker for my x-challenge - maybe then i can ride like kamanya  :biggrin:  :ricky:  It would deffinately give my bike better suspension either way!!

:imaposer: very funny but thats some expensive kit and its really good so i dont feel to embarrassed. Made the KTM stickers myself  :biggrin: 

 

[Kamanya]

me neither.
Oh, kamanya - what year is your bike? and mileage? and how much was that tank?   

2004, 40K Km's. Still fresh as a daisey!

"Eating my heart out" as I type  :biggrin:  nice one there Kamanya.

Wes what can I say.......... :biggrin: still up to your old tricks hey 

the videos are really good  :thumleft:

 

[Leftless]

Some real cool vid's you have there Kamanya

[umshiniwam]

Very nice footage dudes!!!

 

[Crossed-up]

Ai, sorry I couldn't make it.     Nice pics and vids.  Thanks.  :thumleft: The quarry always delivers!

Sid and I were there on Sunday with a friend on a CRF450R.  What a bike for the quarry!  :ricky: Absolutely unstoppable and great fun!  What surprised me was how forgiving the suspension is.  Even if you get it a bit wrong it will sort itself out.  I'd never ridden a bike like this before, but now I understand how it is possible to ride MX and not kill yourself.

It was quite wet on Sunday and there was some seriously slippery stuff up at the little playground, the old MX track.  And of course, when the knobblies get gummed up with wet clay it's another story!

Agreed - that is really good kit. I'd also be riding with my gear (bmw) still if i changed bikes.
The stickers look pretty authentic too  :thumleft:

Kamanya, nice vid  :thumleft:

Did you respray your bikes plastics or is it vinyl? look very cool  :mwink:

Kamanya, nice vid  :thumleft:

it's the "natural" colour of his big tanks. they were silver, but the paint didn't last. or something - kamanya can explain better  ot:

 

[shark_za]

Wes you could have turned that and ridden down !!!
So close.

 

[Kamanya]

Kamanya, nice vid  :thumleft:

Original =

+ Branch across road + Rock + Fall =

$$$$ + Insurance + Aqualine =

More $$$$$ plus paint =

One week + Non-paint-adhesive-plastic-because-they-“breathe”-tanks =

See?

 

[bonova]

jeepers, is anyone else stiff today?
OK, i did go on to ride till 17h00, and i haven't ridden for a few weeks, but hell, i can hardly move today.
Tried to carry an old ladies cat basket to her car and almost dropped it.... ok, the cat was fat  :biggrin:

 

[Bakkie]

See?

when i first saw the pics it looked liked the new 990 with the new colour colours 

 

[the_wes]

shark - looking at the video, in retrospect, had i reacted quicker - yeah, you're probably right

i need knobblies - i lost it on the clay, was going well until then

kamanya - flying tanker, i like it!!!!

bonova - shot for the vid.

and yes, i am in sufficient amounts of pain today  :thumleft:
