After an 8 month recovery from soft/deep tissue injury & wondered how the body would go on a light trail ride so a mate suggested that i go with a few other 4wheel driving & with constant showers in this particular area & couldnt say no!! The bloke in the Hilux was our 4x4 guru so the rookie driver we had was keen 2 c what she could do & 4 a 1st time she did well when under pressure....the conditions were moderately wet & where ever there was mud it was thick & in a few places deep

[img]
this was at the start, nice & tame but was pretty easy 2 get crossed up

[/img]
this was on a track that got muddier & more narrow
[img]this pic shows the mud up2 the sidestep of an 07 navara (like i said deep!)

[/img]this pic was taken of a track that beat every1 from 1 4x4 to 7 trail bikes...if u got past that a would take a hard left then have 2 gun it up a steep rutted hill climb

[img]

[/img] a quick pic of us just short of the mud hole from hell, we were waiting 4 the trail riders 2 get out of the Sh*t

[/IMG]didnt take long 4 the 450r 2 become totally packed with mud
all in all a great day & didnt pull up 2 sore, wait 2 c how i feel tomorrow
