Me, Funacide and Amstel went to play at the quarry near Cullinan.

Not much pics. Funacide got more, including my mud bath.

Was lekker to play a bit and practise/improve some technical skills.

From Lynwood dirt all the way to the quarrie. Level 1-2 stuff with the odd rain ditches along the railway line which can cause some rim damage if you go to fast.

First pit stop just before the quarrie.

Not too difficult although lekker fishtailing and one needed to keep the throttle going. At the end of this sections, is a small ridge and you go up this at speed only to do heavy breaking before hitting another ridge which will stop you in your tracks.

From there everyone playing around on his own in the quarry. Got a nice ramp onto a table top finish where the Dakkie did some flying! :p

Then back to the mud section (small) and gone through it 5 times and lost it the sixth time. Blerry stupid mistake but yes, brought back to earth physically and over-confident wise! :lol:

Dirty Dakar!

Was lekker to do this technical riding. Nice to meet you Amstel.

Amstel is getting the controlled power slide on the 1200 under the knee quite well. Looks awesome on those big bikes! :p Funacide did a nice power wheelie as well standing up. Good one Fun!

Then back to Funacide's place for a few beers. He had to open the side gate for me. No way I could go through his house in the muddy state I was. :oops: :lol:
