That's a great mid-air picture! I could never get to that level of jumpiness, I could road race inches apart from others with my knee on the ground, no problem, but launching off the earth was a bridge to far. LOL. I was just spending a little time getting my Husky ready for spring, still much winter remaining unfortunately, I want to ride!
Interestingly, back in '05 I was competing in a local SuperMoto series, in the winter we would do this to stay sharp and have fun. I do want to resume this!
It's been a few years since I've launched off of a jump like that one. Injuries carry a much higher cost these days....even the ones from my past.
I've never ridden on studs or tried SuperMoto, I always thought SuperMoto looked like a blast

Got all ready for a ride and one of the water pump seals said "nope". Ordered seal and shaft kit and replaced it yesterday. Not a hard job, but it took a while. I feex. I suppose it is to be expected for a 14 year old dirt bike. Haha.
That stinks that you can't get parts for those, I know a few guys around here that have that era of Husky, As far as I can tell those are great Motorcycles. They certainly look great with top notch components.
My Husky is the white KTM version, there is a certain amount of comfort knowing it's now part of that larger organization, but the older ones are a step up on the cool bike scale.
A good friend has a new Beta, it's very nice as well. Those are made in Italy now, wonder if they have any connection to the old Husky ownership?

I'm think it's SWM bikes that are built at the Italian Husky (Cagiva) factory now. They use the motor that Husky used from 2004 till 2010 for the bigger four strokes.
My club put had a weekend away at their property in the Victorian High Country last weekend. It's a social trail riding club and this is typical of the stuff we ride there.
This was about a 140 mile, 225km day.
wait, their property has 140 miles of trail? unreal.
No, the property is only 125 acres with 1000's of miles of trail around it
This is the valley the property is in, zoom out for an idea of the size of the area. This Ride went from that Valley to Dargo. Dargo is South East from that valley, and back.

Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.
If you're like me there's nothing like looking at map to get the picture.
I've always been blown away by the distances in Australia. Was watching a thing on TV about the farms in West Australia.... literally hundreds of thousands of acres... amazing.
Also, love all the craters north of where you were....
That's pretty cool. The guy on the left was trying to pull the end of the cable trying to stay ahead! I was surprised it wasn't that dusty. Had it rained recently or doesn't it get as dusty down there as our deserts get over here?

Yes it's been a wet year in the center of Australia, normally a lot more dust. This year the sand had a bit of moisture in it.
