Popped my "GSA drowning" cherry yesterday

[Lord Vader]

Went for a little run with my friend Jason.Doing a few watercrossings.
First one was a piece of cake

Got a video too



Next one i never been to and i was a bit suprised how big it was

Jason went first and made it

Video clip of his epic crossing



I went next and did not make it cause we both forgot my lowered exhaust
Jason got a clip of it but he is not home yet

well here is a clip of my bike just after she started running again



well at least now i know that i have to change my little exhaust for future U-Boot missions

You can still ford with a low pipe, just keep the throttle open. That will stop the water getting sucked into the pipe.

Heh - watched this on the other thread. I like the mid-channel restart from Jason.

Congrats! Could not see the video asking for a password.

Just to show that I do sometimes learn from my mistakes
Did the Strata Florida and assorted lanes with J
Water not so much of a problem anymore,just struggled av bit in the mud. The last 2 miles took us 3hours

Few pics

It's just amazing what these bikes are capable of. Oh and you should have seen the faces of the guys on "proper" off-road bikes when they past us on the bomb hole

 

[Horse1200]

Proper job lads. At long last some pictures of people using the GSA offroad and getting dirty. Good on ya.

I am so Impressed. I have only managed half of Strata Florida before bottling it. Lethal, literally at certain times of year.
