My current ride...

[B_Comp]

Hey all,

As this is my only ride at the moment, I thought Id share it with everyone (see pics below).

Im hoping there are other keen MTB riders out there, and would be happy to organise some riding if anyone is interested...

I noticed some MTB talk in another thread n though Id get the ball rolling with some pics etc of mine...

For those in the know, these are the details:

'02 GT i-Drive soft tail
Fox Vanilla R shock
'02 Marzocchi Bombers
Hayes Mag Hydros

This bike is definately a 'bitsa' with close to $5k being spent in its life. It has been around the world twice, and was even run in a round of the world cross country champs...

Cheers, Chris

ride up mt dandenong on the roads, and ride back down on the fire trails good fun, except on push bike with slicks, on the fire trails. :?
Or you could ride on the motorbike trails around toolangi state forest, just out of yarra glen.
cant take pics of my bikes, ones getting serviced, and the giant is just plain shit paddock bomb.

[B_Comp]

[Flash]

Yeah I'll be in but it will be a down hill track!! or on the road with my road bike. :D

[B_Comp]

Ash,

Where are the pics of this DH bike you speak of?

[Muzzard]

I have exciting new concept, possible distributorship, in a new MTB electric bike...
Some of you may have seen it in action at the Reno round of the AMA Supermoto being exhibited... 65 mph...uphill too!
Being marketed as an Electric Supermoto... :twisted:

[Muzzard]

How come all you pedal tard freaks haven't come up here doin' the MTB thing, and adding a twist of real motard as well? :?:

[danno]

Muz, mate, it is a pack lunch and negotiations that equal a trip to your part of the state. I'm prepared to do it, but the bike is in for a major service and weekends of late have been booked out by S.W.M.B.O. :)
Maybe we can arrange a visit post Bairnsdale.
