Yeh turning around on that camber slope wasn't great - retrospectively think the better option wld have been for the few of us already 1/2 way up to keep on going and turn around at the top. Definately a hill to tackle again!

Where we turned was o.k. Its just that feeling you have of the sideways tilt. when you just been sitting in the car for so long facing upwards.

Alls good Drew. It wasn't a steep section, just a little lose on the foot. We got one turned around, then it was my turn and I think it was more just the odd feeling more than anything. The guys who were directing me were all great, its just one of those things where you can't see behind you and your relying on others. I wouldn't have done it if it wasn't safe to do so.

Yep, I reckon his bank balance is gonna be under siege ... just need that one more thing to make it easier. ha ha

Gee I reckon he did well though, first day out with no real training. There was nothing drastic, but a few big climbs that he could have easily said no to. Did them all with no dramas at all. Well done mate!

I also had a great day guys. As with everyone, really feeling for BA. It was a definite thing on most minds throughout the day. Got to be a next time soon, but Paule won't be a Novice then, so we can tackle anything :) lol

Lucky they were boiled lollies! Haha!

And I'm hoping by "next time" I'll have my front locker in, so when Mego laughs at seeing my front wheel always come off the ground, at least the one still on the ground will be doing something useful.

A few people got photos and vids. I know Big Fletch got some.
My phone was full and only took one photo at the end.
