Yeah I won’t touch it until I log up some KM.

Easiest step is to change to a wider range rear cassette I think there is an 11-34 if I really need it.

Which dam / lake, Steffo ???

Awesome looking spot, but I wouldn't like to take a boat out through the trees!

The first two pics are at Lake Nuga Nuga, between Expedition NP and Carnarvon NP. The second pair are at Lake Victoria, about 50k North of Biloela.
Nuga Nuga has great wildlife, with birds ranging in size from finches to emus, 'roos, echidnas and 'Warning', lots of field mice. A bloke camped there in a hybrid had an infestation and had to drive back to Injune to get some traps, poor bugger. He thinks, from the droppings, that they got in through the slide-out kitchen!

It’s fitted out with all Ultegra.

Only downside is it has the cyclocross chain rings which are 46-36 with an 11-28 cassette.

I’m going to ride it like this for a bit and see if I’m missing some lower gearing for climbing where I live.

Lots of different views on chainring and cassette sizes these days, there's the sit and spin crew and the stand and grind crew. I'm a low cadence rider whereas most riders today are high cadence. Finding your all day riding cadence will help you work out what gearing you need.

& did you snatch it out or just pull ???

What is the safe WLL of that rope ???

Did you have it connected to approved recovery points on both vehicles ???

Please explain why is there no Traffic Control in place, when you are clearly blocking the road ???

Did you complete a full Risk Analysis of the planned recovery ???

 ;D ;D ;D

Well I found a bike that can handle the Friday morning gravel rides. It followed me home  :cup:

Very nice, but let us see the drivetrain side :)
