Rating this from an environmentalist perspective:

2/10.

Did you really have to have that oily chain in the water? Of all the places to take the photo...yeesh.

The chain was going to be in the water regardless, because unless you're really carrying a lot of speed bikes don't float over water. Sure it would have been better environmentally to stay home and not venture out at all, but I actually like to see some of said environment and a dirt bike is a fun way to do so (and it even has less of an environmental impact than a 4wd).

Thank you for explaining that. The excessive contact time has no bearing on what I was saying, obviously.

Nothing like tearing up the bush to enjoy it. Next up, 4WD action on the beach.

It's where Jerrabattgulla fire trail crosses Jerrabattgulla creek, in Tallaganda state forest. It's a nice little green section around there surrounded by drier more scrubby country on the way in and out.

Awesome, thanks! It might sound funny but I love little creeks like this, clear and you can see the river pebbles at the bottom.

That looks great. Good Sunday
