  • This episode takes me up to day 251 of my year long adventure ride around Australia and boy what a day! After parting ways with my buddy Brendan in Waratah, I double back to Corinna thinking I’d camp there. Wrong...booked out! So I cross the Pieman River on The Fat Man Barge and get the heads up from young Captain Paddy...a dirt rider too! Hmmmmm don’t like my chances of getting a wild camp on the opposite side of the river! The forest was so thick and impenetrable and without any luck, I found myself at the junction of Corinna & Heemskirk Roads! So I decide to go right towards Granville Harbour. The closer I get, the colder and windier it gets. So at the turnoff into the Harbour, I again change my mind and head further south towards Zeehan to seek shelter from the cold. Found it! Yay! Zeehan Bush Camp! Gold! Great nights sleep and the following day I take off to Spray Tunnel after a visit to Mrs Brown at the Pit Stop Cafe! Lol! Spray tunnel was beautiful but I was seeking dirt fun. With a bit of trepidation, I legged it out towards Trial Harbour and the start of the Climies Track. A Facebook buddy Richard Morriss caught my attention with a big rock...Pulpit Rock to be exact! So I take on the challenging gnarly Climies Track to get to the Pulpit Rock turn off. Wow what a ride! And without a load, it was easier but also harder as my suspension was set up for an extra 40kgs! Yikes! Lol! I made it out there to the stunning rock & panoramic ocean views! SPECtacular! And I made it back up and out and WITHOUT A DROP! Yay! This day has not ended...stayed tuned! 😁👍🏁⛺️🏍💨

    great riding video section of the gnarly climb from the Rock. The idea of looking far ahead goes out the window when the ruts are crisscrossing the trail. The Honda did great, as well. I also prefer the forest riding to deserts and shorelines.

    Gday Roz .. Can you imagine doing that Heemskirk Road from Zeehan to Grandville Harbour with 160 tonn load ? I did 6 days a week carting the parts for the Wind Farm. Dear Mrs. Brown sure lives up to her name .. she is a card. Did you check out the toilet ? there is a motorcycle in there and a set of handle bars as a door hand to get out. Plus the food and coffee is great. Stay safe. Hugs.

    Hey Roz. Really enjoying all your travels. My wife and I have watched every one of your videos. As my wife has the same bike as yours can relate to all your comments about the bike, especially the fact the CRF250 is quite high which makes it tricky on the rough stuff and getting on and off. We have had the suspension properly lowered on her bike and re-valved both ends. It really has made riding more enjoyable for her. Worth giving it some thought as your style of riding won’t really be affected but would certainly help being closer to the ground. It’s worth considering. By the way, how do you get those videos up so regular between all the adventures. Keep it up. We love it.😀

    • @RozalynVeersma
      @RozalynVeersma  3 года назад +1

      Awesome! Yep, great lil bikes! I’ve had a lower link installed to 40mm but unfortunately not for the benefit of lowering the bike, but for the benefit of allowing the Ohlins heavy duty spring more play. The Ohlins was necessary because of the load I’m carrying. So caught between a rock & a hard place and given some of the terrain I do with the load, I actually need the clearance. So I just keep practicing my super slow riding skills which is my weak point but one day I’ll master it! 🤞😂🍀 I do the vids in the evening when chillaxing in iMovie on my iPhone. Need to bang them out to get the data off my phone otherwise I run out of space for the next days footage. Can’t wait to get home & binge watch my journey! 😂🙏

    Very enjoyable ride. On the subject of leg reach, prob being light popped the rear up a couple of cm’s so compounding the situation unless you backed off some preload.
    Out of interest what was your rear Tyre pressure?
    Thoroughly enjoying the journey 👍😃
    Carry on 👏👌

      Thanks darl...I thoroughly enjoyed riding it! 😂🙏 Yep...correct...unloaded she’s a tad taller! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 I didn’t want to play with comp & preload on the Ohlins as it’s perfectly set for my luggage which I ride with 99% of the time. Was too scared I’d not get it back to where it is now! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂🙏 Tyre pressures were 20/22. I never go below 20lb even in deep sand. Never had a pinch flat in over 55k! 🤞😂🍀
