The ride was pretty hectic. 2 x KTM 300 engines (TE300 and 300EXC) are being pulled for rebuilds. I get the job of doing one for a mate. One x WR450 that blew its front sprocket and chain decided its time for a top end as well. Lonetree has crazy high kms/hrs on his EC250 and had planned to rebuild the whole engine after this ride. Another mate took a dirt sample and is having a bit of time off to nurse his shoulder.
Absolute carnage. I lead the first sections in the morning and then handed over to a couple of other blokes. They're off to Romaniacs this year and their ride fitness and abilities are truly amazing.
It would have been nice to have some video from the ride, but I think only one bloke bothered to run a cam, and due to the conditions he only has limited footage where the lense isn't covered in mud/fog.
