Hey boys,

Good work Shenanigans. This was most definately overdue.

Well as most of you know i'm in Newman with some pretty sick natural terrain up here(just hard as hell to dig). Yet I do a few trips to Perth from time to time so I'll let you guys know when i'm coming down, hopefully on the new ride(shhh Shenanigans secret remember).

Should be good to put some names to faces(for the WAfreeride guys)

Remember ride hard, party harder..:D

WA Freeride seems to be just street/park in the last while, no offroad stuff. Would anyone be up for a regular Mundaring/Gunjin/Goatfarm/Canning Mills ride? I'm up for some mid-week rides & wouldn't mind a riding buddy.
if you ride canning mills during the week you may see me or joel cutting down the track or other locals, if there are any :) but i am up there at least twice during the week

Langford Park

Hey Guys, i have just finished a week long ride along a section of the munda biddi track and as part of that we rode around the langford park 12 hour course! im just wondering if anyone is going to or has any information about the 12 hour race coming up soon. Myself and a couple of mates are looking at entering just as a bit of fun but we are not sure what the regulations and stuff are!

Cheers

and if you read this thebofh, any updates with kelmscott dj's?
The project was passed onto the recreation dept & the man in charge put the brakes on it for reasons of his own.

I've been in touch with him & he said he was going to try to put the proposal to council this month but wasn't 100% certain. Interpret that as you may :(

However, it has the support of the parks dept & the community services dept, it costs practically nothing to do & the land is already zoned for the activity & covered for liability, it just has to survive the internal politics of the City of Armadale.

Just adding my bit on the original post. I try and get up to the Goatfarm at least once a weekend for a DH ride, usually early morning til midday. I'm not hard to spot when out riding - I have a full polish DH Comp (the Commodore of the downhill set). I don't race, so I don't know many people in the sport locally. Happy to make an arse of myself, not afraid to dig.

Keen to meet up with DH people - my downhilling buddy just started renovating his house so he's out of circulation. Boo hiss. See you all on a trail sometime.

Hey dudes
I live in kalgoorlie and generally ride and build every weekend we do have a few riders up here but the fact is everyone thinks it is completly flat so no ones interested. But we got some decent trails and hills so hopefully the riding community will grow a bit more in a few years. we mostly have freeride/downhill stuff. If anyone is up here and are looking to ride a bit. just send us a pm and we will show you some of our tracks.
