Blinky Bill

Walking the dogs this morning in Kentlyn and they scented something and took off....

Im not too sure, but I think his arm may be hurt cause he wasnt keen to climb the tree and just sat there. I couldnt quite make the tags out and didnt want to distress him too much... but pretty damn cool I have to say.

BTW have called the Koala hotline and will tell them exactly where he is....

 

[ToranaJudd]

WOW!

Thats something you don't see often. Hope he hasn't fallen from the tree or something..

Looks like a bit of dislocation going on there. Don't quote me, I am not a vet

That shoulder doesn't look good. Hope it isn't the one I spotted a week or so back.

Good work mate. Thanks for taking the time to call the Koala hotline.

BTW. You can generally see their ear tags better from the rear than the front. Sometimes the fur around their ear covers the tag so have a look at the back of the ear.

CBG.

What better way to christen it than to get sand and mud all through everything?

howdy
what are conditons like at Kenty at present ... thinking of heading your way either Sunday Morning early or Sunday afternoon 3ish ...

presume the sandy soils are coping well with the rain ??

Kentlyn is probably the best place to ride in Sydney after rain as it drains very quickly and as Newts said, the tracks are super tacky so you don't need you brakes on the corners, just rail them hard
I'll be out there tomorrow morning doing more track work after the road gap, so if anyone is riding that line, don't run me over

So the long weekend is looming fast. Who wants to put their hand up for a trip to Lithgow for some DH. At present we're looking at going up on the Sunday. Possibly looking to do both shuttles at The Gun Club and The Pony Club tracks as well as some pushies at Lidsdale. Need numbers to orgainse vehicles.
So far:
IN:
Greg
Craig

Tentative
Nerf

Not confirmed:
Judd
Blake
Pete
Andy
Wade

haha nice, you sure you arent part kiwi?

 

[aussiemx]

haha! id love to come but i might be going down to canberra for the long weekend! hopefully going to stromlo again

 

[Newts]

2 macs, 3/4 cheeseburger, 3 nuggets, 2 chips and 2 drinks and I wasn't hungry. The girls weren't eating. Image me after a full day riding.
Not likely for me at this stage. Have a few things happening (kids partys) so KDH is the likely option.

 

[scuba05]

Newts, finally someone else who wants to do this challenge. I have a bet going with some mates that recon i cant do one of those meals by myself after a day of riding. They have at least $40 riding on it.

Can anyone give me some directions to the Lithgow downhill trails. I have heard there are a few, but can never get good directions on here or other websites, unlike say Ourimbah and Stromlo. I was looking at organising a trip for some mates to go up awaba tomorrow, but due to weather, thought better of it. Probs hitting up the gong.

Cheers in advance

Thanks for the update Peeps ... if its not a biblical flood on Sunday you'll see a couple of slugs doing a lapo.

Wanna put me down for a tentative for Lithgow ... I'll wrangle a crew but if you have space I'll bum a seat if thats OK. (may have my new rig too ... yeow)
