  • Ended up marshalling while mates did the rally this weekend. Was the only way to get access to the trail. Managed to play around for a few hours in the gullies and ditches, and try the hillclimb after a night of rain.

  • Nice! Looks like a CRF450L might take the 450 Trail Bike overall class win. Did it make you want to ride, and how did the Traaaansit perform if you took it? I like how there seems to be riders of all abilities, with totally different goals at the Sweet Lamb Baja, not just those wanting to beat each other which can get a bit one dimensional.

  • Yea the strong guys were strong but the weak guys, well….

    I definitely earned my playtime, we lost count of the number of bike pickups on that climb. So many drops and so many people retired after a lap or two. Hardly even ‘racing’ and people were just failing to read the track.

    Honestly it didn’t interest me at all to race per-se, but I would have loved to have the DR with me to try the entire track rather than the area close enough not to run out of fuel.

    The location is amazing, it’s a ballache to get to; after the A470? it gets mega twisty for a van.

    The Transit somehow coped fine! Even with a 990 Adventure, Sherco, passenger, and shitloads of kit.
