I was there in the 12 hour. Jesus Christ! How difficult!!! :blink:
We completely underestimated how difficult it would be. Totally unfit. Totally without skills. We'd assumed it would just be like one big green lane. Could not have been more wrong!
I got a good start on the Harley though, shame I crashed and broke it a little while later! :laugh:

That was a nasty little hole where you fell off ,rode it lots of times during the day with no issues ,done a lap at night to make sure everything was running ok and no-one had any issues and nearly broke my wrist in the same place ,would'nt have looked too good if an ambulance was need for a marshall

Thanks for that little movie, MadStu. An I like that quote you use at end of yr posting too - I try remember that every day. Did one lap durin 6 hour (avoiding extremes) but it was all FAR MORE extreme than what I expected even tho I been in Walters before. But we were all part of it & felt welcome and really proud to be there an give it a crack. You go to any ABM rallies?

Haha, this is my other video! I went back out on my mates ktm and failed miserably as you can see, lol. That was my fastest lap time at 1 hour 10 minutes though.
I'll make a video soon highlighting all my falls. Body armour is so cool!
