First Trials event for the year.....

Yesterday was our first trials event for the year... it was up at Bob's Creek which is about 20km south of Rockhampton.. so it was an early start for all - with having to get out of the house by 7am to load the bikes at Mom and Dad's place and then head off to Rocky....

The early start didnt' really agree with Greg too much who was still buggered from playing Rugby the day before - followed by a closing shift at KFC - so he only got home around 10:30pm... (but he came with chicken - so in his mind - that's a score!! <-- and Rob's mind!)...

Greg attempted to sleep on the way up to Rocky, but travelling with a 2yr old in the seat next to you, means that you don't really get much sleep.... "Hey Greg!! Wake up!!!"... she's an early riser... so having to leave the house by 7am wasn't a challenge for her!

We arrived at the trials site and the boys offloaded the bikes, Frank's 4RT is borked - so he borrowed my 315 and the boys rode their bikes....

Rob came 1st in C Grade... and Greg DNF'd... but he did complete about two and a half laps I believe.... and considering he's gone from pretty much a non-sporting life - to weekends just full of it now, it'll take a little getting used to.....

Rob Warming up... (one day I'll change the name plates on the bikes so that people don't think that Rob is riding my bike.... plus we have to get Greg a name plate too)

The Boys Ready and Raring!


Greg always ready to pose!

More Happy Snaps!

Oh yeah, better get one photo with Jade in for the day
(Jade was actually a little unwell, so was not really in a posing mood..
so no real photos of her at all)
