Hay River Track - on the WR250R
I have only just started to dump some of our Simpson Desert footage onto my hard drives and scrolling through it I remembered how much I really enjoyed the Hay River Track. If you haven't been out there on your bike, you should.
The little WR was the perfect choice.
Full videos to follow in the coming months. So stay tuned.

A little over 5 months since I snapped my leg it was time to jump back on the horse that bucked me off. With a little bit of apprehension I manned up and rode sweep for an organised Facebook ride. With a wide range of bikes I follow along as can you by watching this video. I hope you enjoy.

This is part 3 of a video series that I have been pretty slack putting together. Filmed over 4 days early February 2022 a group of good mates set off on a 1300km loop through some of the most picturesque areas if Victoria and NSW. Maybe it's just me but It's hard not to get motivated to jump back on the bike after watching these sort of videos. I hope you enjoy.

    Great footage and great commentary - thanks for sharing. Couple of quick questions if I may - what milage did you do on your tyres, what street/road pressures did you use and tell me, did you get any flats?

    • @bikeaction.
      @bikeaction. 3 месяца назад

      Glad you enjoyed the video mate. I got over 10 thousand kilometres out of the tyres but the front Rallz should have been changed around 9 thousand as it starts to heel and toe pretty badly. If I’m mainly doing road riding I’d keep the pressure up around 30 pounds but through the Flinders I ran 25 pound all round. No flats in the duration of these tyres 👍
