Sunday the 28th MELBOURNE, hursty.

[curtisrider]

anybody up for a ride at hursty on ther 28th ?

[Simo]

yyyyyyyes

[curtisrider]

ok cool thats 2

[oz-freerider]

meeeeeeeeeeee

[nhd]

if the bike's going, theres no better way to run it in at hursty right ?

[Roastin]

hi all, whats hursty like?
is it trails or is it jumps?
DH or firetrails??
i've been here 2 years and all i've ridden is the city and winsdor.......man i need a car......

whats the skill level needed for that ride??

cheers

[Simo]

its DH, i'd call it moderate but you can ride it however u want.
If I can ride it anyone can! in the vids section there's a hurtsy vid of last time, the bulk of it is the bottom section.

[mr whippy]

i'll be there. what time we riding?

[S.]

If I can ride it anyone can!

Yes, but you can't.... :P

Roastin: It's not real easy stuff, but if you're somewhat capable on ya bike then you'll be right. There's chicken lines around anything difficult. It's DH, shortish tracks with about a 10-15 minute push back up.

[green_chairs]

i might be able to make it. i have to go to geelong that night though. times anyone?

[Commander Dilsnikk]

i'll be there.......as i said in the other thread talkin about this..grr...multiple threads.....oh well...whoever turns up turns up....times shall be worked out at a later date....as in the day before i would imagine

[Commander Dilsnikk]

times will of course depend on when all u people who live o so far away can wake up and train accross half of aus to get out to the land of the living.......hehe it's 10 minutes in the car for me!!!

[green_chairs]

hey commander, where do you live? I'm in greensborough, are you in the area?

[Commander Dilsnikk]

yeah i live just between viewbank and lower plenty on the plenty river....i can give u a lift on sunday if u want

[Cúl-Báire]

All this riding....SHit guys cant you wait till I get my AC built up; then I'll be there to roast everyones ass, well Simo at least :P

Where exactily is Hursty, and how would one go bout getting there, on public transport if at all posable :oops:

[green_chairs]

[Simo]

we all (well most of us) meet at flinders street station i nthe morning and get the train to hurtsy. Sometimes we encounter bogan traindrivers who give the sticks a bad name but meh, what can you do :lol:
(only josh alex and rhys will get that)

[green_chairs]

we'll see if marz desides to warranty it (it's under a year old) and if so how long it takes.......i'l try my hardest.......but that won't be very hard since i have no control over the situation

:(

[oz-freerider]

damn man how you do that!

[Simo]

ok ppl
TRAIN TIME:
10:48am from flinders street. PLATFORM 1.
if you miss it your gonna be nice and late as they only run like every 45minutes on a sunday if ur lucky.

the train LEAVES at 10:48 so get there nice and early

[oz-freerider]

cool i'll be there

[gt-dhi-troy]

ill be there,but dont no where it is do you have a meeting place
and what time :wink:

[Commander Dilsnikk]

damn man how you do that!

did a little hip jump with a bit of an x-up and whip and landed with a little too much sideways pressure on the fork.......
depending on what happens this might be the time to upgrade to shermans......yummy

[Bender is CRAZY]

ill be there,but dont no where it is do you have a meeting place
and what time :wink:

platform 1 just lok for a group of riders i suppose, before 10:48 cos that is when the train leaves.

[Roastin]

i'll be there on my roast.......somewhat of a newbie rider so laughs are on me for the day........maybe........heh

[DJK]

Yea, i'll still be there. How long does it take to get from flinders st to hursty, coz i'm driving and wanna know when to get there.

[curtisrider]

30 minutes by car,

ill meet you all at ivanhoe station

[Bender is CRAZY]

DOes anyone know approximately what time you would arrive back at Flinders Street Station.

[oz-freerider]

Yea, i'll still be there. How long does it take to get from flinders st to hursty, coz i'm driving and wanna know when to get there. it take an hour on the train or there abouts..

[Commander Dilsnikk]

*boo hoo*
bloody z5s.....why the hell did they decide to snap just b4 the hursty ride???????
damnit!!!!!

i spose i could ring up my friend and borrow his giant atx dh with phat stratos mx6s......pity the front brake doesn't work and it lik 1000tonnes heavier than what i'm used to....and i've never ridden a duallie for more than about 2 minutes (and hursty isn't the easiest trakc to learn to ride on....)who knows.......we'll see

[Commander Dilsnikk]

better than just HOPING that my warranty claim will be processed (if it gets accepted) in time......i suppose

[oz-freerider]

yeah man ask just wack your front brake on the beast

[Commander Dilsnikk]

yeah but my bike's at the shop.....spose i could.....but it might take ORGANISATION.....which is something i'm lacking when it concerns things other than study at the moment......

thanx for the idea.....i might just try it

[gt-dhi-troy]

about 12:00 is that cool. ( look 4 a blue ute with bike in back)
if you live in essendon or glenroy and need a lift give me a page

[mr whippy]

i'm sorry to say that cause of injury i cant come. :( was lookin forward to meeting other melbourne riders. hope you guys can put some wicked photos on farkin so at least i know what i'm missing out on. :)

[S.]

I will be there, complete with tools (other than Josh and Rhys) to do some track work.

[oz-freerider]

YAY i'm a tool now i have been called one i'll have to live up to expectations (SPELLING!!!)
i must get quote of the day for once i am yet to get it!!!

[S.]

I am going to be on a maniacal charge.... to make up for my poor result at Granton.

[Simo]

and socket will bring me a 2.7 tube! SHAZAM

[curtisrider]

and homemade cookies for everybody

[oz-freerider]

I am going to be on a maniacal charge.... to make up for my poor result at Granton.
what a manical charge into trees :lol:

[S.]

Haha nah, just wanna go fast. I really, really, really wanna make that hip into the corner (after that last droppy thing), so that you can hit it at mach 20 and be smooth.

Simo: I'll get ya a tube by then.

[curtisrider]

hips into corners, oh no, :shock: thats a worry

[S.]

No this will be an actual hip, not a dodgy-double-with-a-speed-hump-in-the-runup-to-dodgy-gravel-corner-causing-multiple-injuries-including-broken-collarbones-broken-wrists-and-other-injuries sort of thing.

Besides, it goes to my good side (left), not my dodgy side (both, now that I think of it).

[curtisrider]

haha cool at first bit,

lol at second.

[oz-freerider]

noooooo a left make it a rigt hand turn steve... :lol:

[S.]

ahaha blow me. I'll make that other one a bit further up into another left-hand hip, how would ya like that? :D

[oz-freerider]

meh i rail around them so fast they will blow up and make a HUGE roost behinde me so you cant see and crash off into the trees

[curtisrider]

hahaha, simo better get it

[S.]

Change of plan.... me and 01 250 might go up there on Friday to do a bit of work, then just ride on Sunday instead of pretending to build stuff.

[oz-freerider]

haha cool make a nice big jump (not high a long one ) if theres and good spots just like a kicker to a natural tranny

[curtisrider]

where gonna fix up berms, make downramps, and maybe even a huck to flat

[S.]

haha cool make a nice big jump (not high a long one ) if theres and good spots just like a kicker to a natural tranny

I wanna extend that last one, and make the berm before it decent so you can hit it REALLY fast.

[curtisrider]

yeah

[oz-freerider]

nice maybe see if you can fix the dam wall berm or more the exit so you can hit that faster too

[S.]

Then it'd be a bloody BMX track... it's gotta have some challenge!

[curtisrider]

the bottom of the track has always been burmy and jumpy

[oz-freerider]

aww cmon you know it's be more fun if it was even faster to get even FURTHER on that jump your making longer..

[S.]

We'd be landing in the corner.... and that isn't a hippable corner!

[curtisrider]

dont start an argument with socket.

ask a boy called jack

[S.]

And as I'm sure you know by now Mark, HE IS WRONG!

[Commander Dilsnikk]

me wants warranty to HURRY THE FARK UP......
it's only been 2 days and i'm ITCHIN' to ride....
*grinds teeth*

[Simo]

as long as u dont pull out that tree near that left turning berm!

[S.]

huh?

[Simo]

that tree near the berm that turn to the left after that small drop. The one near the lake, keep that tree there, it stops me gettin wet!

[Bender is CRAZY]

I can't go anymore cos my parents say i ain't allowed to go meeting ppl off the internet. :(

[Simo]

ahahha, say im from ur school (its close enuf)

[Bender is CRAZY]

ahahha, say im from ur school (its close enuf)

[oz-freerider]

[curtisrider]

I can't go anymore cos my parents say i ain't allowed to go meeting ppl off the internet. :(

[curtisrider]
