Sunday 16th. into the forest

 Bernie hired a bike and then we set off into the forest.  Thought we were on a nice uphill track that turned into a muddy climb consisting of pushing our bikes and mud up the hill.  You have to take what you get on a trip.  Finally got up to the top.  Plan was to ride down a couple of tracks get the shuttle for a couple of runs and then Bernie would depart.  Plan did not turn out.

We headed down Gunna Gotta which was fun and mucky.  Challenging in spots but we all had grins at the bottom....except Bernie who thought we were all mad shits.  We then rode numerous other tracks with interesting names that I can not remember.  Be Rude not to, Lions Tale, etc etc.  Some were really cool runs while others were a bit of uphill.  Finally we made it to the shuttle base only to find out it only picks up there once a day.  The rest of the time it is on the hill.  opps.  Bernie was tapped out so he headed home.  We had lunch and then headed up the hill to find the shuttle.  expected a big ride only to find it was just up the hill a tad.

Onto the shuttle to the top and then climbed to Billy T.  Mucky and technical.  All had some fun at different speeds.  MacGyver giving the drop and double gap jump a go.  Only person to.  Continued riding all these tracks.  Started feeling a bit tapped out from all the ups and downs and we headed back to base.  Finished on Ndo track which was a fun blast out.  42kms.  Did not drink half as much this day.  BBq was the highlight as it caught on fire and spoiled the food.
