AUSTRALIA DAY 2011
Snowy07 and i had a day off work and headed out early for some XC riding....It didnt really work out as the trail was closed.BUT......we found this place and after a few runs we decided to do some Fat Butcher filming.The 4x4 driving was just as good as the riding.Going back to this place again for sure.

I waited all day to watch this mate!
Awesome day!
I sure hope snowy is all good with his crash! Broken boards is bad news mate! hahhaha
I had one of my worst crashed 2 years ago from my tire breaking the boards!
I have to say this video had it mate!
Fun times awesome angles and some great riding while listening to some traditional music!
Superb!
Good job on the edit and all the angles!
RideOn mate!

thanks mate.i was waiting for you to see it all day too hahaha.Snowy is good,a little sore but he is ok.I just didnt like the boards on the drop off.thats why i didnt do it.He actually slowed down to ride over it and they broke.
We did have a good time mate.it was so funnt all day and if you heard us between shhots you would have laughed too.the riding was good but snowy is getting way fast now.the music really fitted the theme of the day i thought.
Im glad you liked it mate,the edit was good fun too as Sam helped me.cant wait to do it again with a few more mates next time.
ride on mate

mate the first couple of times down the trail were very funny.We crashed a bit as we didnt know the trail.the next run down was super fast.It just doesnt show it the film but we were going quite fast mate.yes,he is a champion mate...very good rider too.

thanks mate.it was hard because my suspension was set firm for a XC ride.it is actually the DH track where we had the state champs here a year or two ago.we just left the big jumps alone hahaha.we tried to go fast mate but Amigo,we had such a good laugh all day and snowy07 is a 4x4 master so he showed me how to drive my truck properly...best day on the trails for a long time.

mate anytime you could get here we would take you up.not bad for a couple of fat butchers.1 on a HT and the other old enough for a walking frame hahaha.the 4x4 driving was even better.i finally got to try my truck with a decent "trying" track....it nailed it.

no chatting to truckers mate.just each other.sometimes a mobile phone wont work in the Hills.we are always prepared mate.with our wild life you never know what will happen.

Liam you are 100%right.we always make sure we are ready.I would hate a good days riding be spoiled by no preperation.we see some big crashes up here on our lines.A lot of young blokes go too hard lol and the snakes,and other nasty things are always around.
- + 1
yes but when you corner them even by accident they will go you hard.when you see them you shit your pants hahaha

some mates did a big XC ride today.they ran over a King Brown and it chased them.also saw another one and it chased them too for a bit......i dont like them at all.
- + 1
hell yes! a few weeks ago i almost walked over one and i didnt even know it before the bugger took off and was 20 feet away.I scared it just as much as it me.The king browns will come from any where and chase you but it has not happened to me yet but living in National park land it think its only a matter of time before one comes and says hello.

yeah i can put up with that.After a while you sort of learn where they are anyway.thanks mate,im very proud to be a Aussie.

Aussie day is Jan 26...It was a long time ago when we only really starting riding again after a few years off.....This trail is the State Champs DH line....In desperate need of some love.We have fun with every ride bro.Our local bike shop asked us to do a review of a new bike so snowy and i took it out and did a video.....f*cking funny shit .....If you get the chance check it out.Its in my Fat Butchers MTB club album called "avanti torrent test ride".....listen to our ghetto review....for some reason the company didnt use it lol but i got heaps of emails from them saying it was a funny review....we started of serious but it went ape shit at the end.thanks mate,love a prop every now and then of a fellow bike geek

lol,thought you might like that.....if you cant fart on ya best mate whats the point of having one?
the riding was ok.when we rode the lines there a few times before the film we were going pretty fast.but with self filming it is hard to get a good flow.Either way we had a good day out and the nomad came through with flying colours.I just need to get the stem length right now.100mm was cool but not on tech stuff.with the wide bars i hit trees but the worst part was when i slowed down the 100mm stem sort of turned the bike from nice to really twitchy....all good fun,means i get to work on the set up a bit more lol.a 80mm stem might be the go i think.

Mate we are not your best freeriders and take the piss out of each other at any chance we get.We are in it for the love of riding,not because we are good at it as you can see.As for the scorpion,yes,it just snapped the twig so easy.It was only a baby as they grow to about 6 inch long.but i can saddly say they would be hard to train but would make a ideal pet for a person you dont like maybe.
Happy Australia Day to you sir too.
