    Looks like fun! 18:45 Those creatures are likely a species of shrimp. Here in NJ, USA we have Fairy Shrimp that lay eggs in vernal pools and they hatch when the conditions are right.

    Great video, thanks and what a great track to ride. Feel very envious as live in the UK and ride a DR650 but only have short tracks here. Better in other countries in Europe but not nearly as long. Also thanks for all your riding and improvement tips, really like your earthy gritty approach and my god you have some fun. Keep 'em coming and wow what a great rider, love it that you see a log and just hop on it and ride it from end to end hahaha!! Great skill.

      ​@@SKIDSnSTUFFI like the fact that Skids channel isn't super popular honestly. I want it to grow and want him to get paid well doing this but too often once channels get big, then comes the merch, the sponsors, then the content changes and everything goes to the dogs. Skids is sick! He keeps it strictly DR 🎉

    Great ride Skids, thanks for taking me along. I had a car pull out on me yesterday, took the back panel off the Mitsubishi ASX with my leg, not much damage to the DR, just bent the side cover crash bar into the Delkevic muffler. My leg and foot is pretty banged up but not broken managed to ride home, won't be back in the bush for a while till the legs better.

    Nice one again man. The worst 3 things about the Holland track are. 1. Getting from Hyden to the start of the track. 2. Freaking out about an oncoming 4x4 in some of the faster sections. 3. Getting from the end to Coolgardie, the rest is all fun! To continue the fun though and if you have the fuel when you get to Victoria Rock road turn right for about 30kms give or take and find the old car bonnet and take that track to Cave Hill. Mint

      I hit that track the opposite way after Coolgardie, headed out towards Cave hill on haul road then seen that track so ditched back towards Holland on that. Had a bit of a peak at some offshoot track but it dwindled out

Got a spare donga with ensuite for Perth dirt life riff raff mates who venture up this way! 😂👍🏁🏍💨 On your next trip up, you’ll have to go inland from Southern Cross to Koolyanobbing and then up to the Helena Aurora & Manning Ranges. The ridge top is freakin stunning! Then ride the dirt trails off the ridge, through Jaurdi and dirt all the way to Coolgardie. Currently working on finding another route from north of Coolgardie all the way into Kalgoorlie so blacktop can be avoided altogether. I’m back in Perth now for a month over the Xmas/New Year break and then back up to Kalgoorlie again. Hope to see you there. Might even cross trails over this Xmas break whilst I’m down in Perth 😁👍🏍💨

    • @SKIDSnSTUFF
      @SKIDSnSTUFF  Рік тому +2

      It's 30 ltr but holds about 34. It's negligible effect on handling when taking into consideration the brilliance and freedom of the range. I usually use a 25ltr for everyday, mainly because of how my tank/camera bag sits, this is just for long haul. Any difference on handling doesn't really matter for long haul cos it's usually big wide roads anyway
