Newbie from Newy

Post by Bosco15 »

Hello. New to forum.
49yo from Kurri Kurri, NSW.
Riden bikes since I was 12yo.
Had dirt bikes in my youth. Fell off and got back up again.
Now that I’m older, so much older, I don’t think that my body would bounce back as quickly.
I think I would still be pretty good at falling off, though.
Looking at trials as an avenue to get some excercise whilst not thinking that I’m excercising.
Cheers. Mark.

G'day Mark. I head out Tumblebee every few months on my Gas Gas so when you get a bike let me know. Daryl.

Cheers Daryl.
Have picked up a bike and have been riding around backyard.
Building bike fitness as well as skills.
Set up a few obstacles. 4x4” beam to ride along for balance. Half a 44 gallon drum and an old boat fuel tank, V shaped to fit in hull.
A complete novice to trials, but enjoying the challenge.
Have joined Denman MCC and bought myself a licence, so am looking forward to attempting Clubman level.
No idea where Bumblebee is, but if it’s not too far, I’m keen for a ride.

Mark, Tumblebee is the hill off the HEZ road above the watertank. It has some good trials terrain all around it. Denman is a good club. What bike have you got?

I understand that the company went belly up, but the price was right and she’s a lot of bike for the money.
Will definitely have to check out Tumblebee.

G'day Mark

Graeme here, we met at the last DMCC club round. Myself and a couple of others are heading out to Milbrodale for a ride on Saturday also. You are welcome to join us there also, if your original plan falls through.

Cheers Graeme.

You can come along if want Luke, the generator is still in bits so it might have to be the inverter model. Between half nine and ten. See you there.
