Nagambie Holiday (How to get bogged) PICS + VIDZ

Postby Hybrid34 » July 24th, 2008, 1:36 am

Thought I'd post this up,
Went to my holiday house a few weeks ago, wanted to go to a place called Reedy Lake where during the dry season is bascially a massive area to play around with your car, exepct when it rains getting bogged and taking 4hours to get out of this is what you get...
enjoy

(also 0-180 test on private road)

ABS = spongy brakes, but you'll slow to about 60

non-ABS = lock up at 100 & skid past the roo doing about 95. But you'll look sick doing it :mrgreen:

HaHa! I've been to Reedy Lake a couple of times for ditbike riding. It's a great spot to have a thrash around but yeah, those mud patches are pretty nasty if you're acting stupid

As stupid as it seems, we got to the lake with no problems, just coming back along the track coming from the opposite direction its hard to direct...
