A few pics from me.

Another new cut through from Glitch. :clap:



Veom on da go. :endu



All smiles so far. :so



A brilliant time making a lot of noise climbing Mt Baw Baw. :devil:





Soooo much fun, well for some…. :eek:



After lunch, Fuzzy and I continued further into the hills.





The it started to get a little narrow.



And rocky.





Back into the wet forest.



Where we found some mud.



Before we stopped for afternoon tea at Matlock.



The run across to the top of Reefton was mental fun. Loose slippy gravel on most corners. Yeah baby! Slide like a loon! :whistle:

Trip distance: 402km for me.

Glad you got home ok veom. You seemed a bit brighter after we stopped for a bit to eat. Sometimes you can be wanting to get home so much, you forget about other things. I think it was worth the time stopped.
Cheers

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!!! I let you boys and girls out for a play, and look what happens. That's a nasty looking knee there Veom, hope it heals quick.

Looks like the pre-lunch ride was ST friendly, you should've let me know, I might have attended.

The after lunch ride - I might have been lonely returning by myself - some of that mud in Franks pics would have been too much for me.

One small step in becoming old and wise.

:bs:so
Keep those ice-packs going, mate...and keep it moving to pump the fluid out.
(that's, if you can take the strain/ weight)

Actually....Some of the pre-lunch might not have been as ST-friendly as what it looks from a few pics.
After lunch/ Walhalla, everything sort of broke up. Tim + Fuzz went north via Matlock, Veom + Squizzy had sailed home via the Fwy earlier with Doug following an hour later or so...Rob (a86) who'd joined in Walhalla tagged along via the bumpy white clay around Moondarra and cut south into Moe....while Goodie and self bumped along the Old Sale Rd., the Bunyip State Park (which had a nice, fresh, 3" coat of 1" gravel....whoopee:eek:) and some sweet red-dirt tracks around Gembrook-Monbulk with plenty of time for the cameras.

Some SWEET pics you've got there!! :glu
Nice little loop into Gladysdale, aye?
Was really tempted to squeeze off that first shot myself, but didn't want to stop that early into the ride. What a magic spot, with that narrow-angle view into the rolling ridges of the Yarra Valley.
Might have to pinch that shot. :wink: .....or go back :drool:

Looks like you guys had a good run into Matlock then.

two wheels are best
I saw you guys punting east along Swales Road near Monbulk. A happy looking lot you were in the morning sunshine.
You were about to go down the 'Fleming's Nursery' hill as I crested its climb on my pushie, breathing in your fumes and wishing for a motor :sweat: .
