    This is why I like FHC. I get to see places that I will probably never travel to. Thanks for posting the pictures.

    Those are great shots. I love riding, unfortunately once my twins were born, and another 18 months later I haven't touched my bike since. It still has mud from my last ride/ race in November of 2017, since the girls were born 2 weeks later.

    Running over this echidna would have ended our ride.

    On Sunday I came across these fire fighting helicopters refuelling after putting out a fire a little to the south of us.

    Yes it’s not bad, I had a lot worse when I was younger, it just seems to take longer to heal up now.

    I made it to the top of the gorge. Yea and I look a bit different than I did in 2019 when I saw some of y’all in Michigan at @Backwoods Savage’s GTG.

    Amazing pics and great to see you pop back in leoht :handshake:
    Have you been hoarding much in addition to riding?

    G’day Eric VW. Unfortunately I have been letting my hoarding slide a fair bit. I did spend a day on the saws out at my uncle and aunt’s farm while dad ran the splitter a few weeks back.

    I purchased the hydraulic splitter over a year ago for a job down at dads house and I still haven’t used it at home yet.
