We all know the story of how Robert Leroy Johnson sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads to be able to play the blues, well I think NordieBoy sold his common sense to the gravity god for unlimited verticalness

It's worked so far.

I've had this fiddle made of gold on trademe for a while though and no one is interested in it for some reason.

The tool tubes I spoke of on Saturday (for those of us who don't want to or just don't make our own stuff very well)....

Those are the two sizes I have on the way.

They look good, I just spent $75 on bottle cages for the back of my boxes about 4 weeks back, I would have preferred these to tell you the truth. Please repost this info 4 weeks ago, thanks

Anyone interested in riding to Lake Taylor this weekend.
Don't know if we can get access to Lake Sumner unless someone knows what the deal is with that.

Doh - sold my 950. That would have been fun. I suspect the 450 is just as fast to about 80kph though (if you can flick through the gears quick enough).

There will be 3 of us leaving early from Karamea, meeting up with the number 1 criminal at Waimangaroa, heading to St Arnuad to tee up with a dodgy norfie (.chris) at St Arnuad between 1 and 1:30, fueling up and should be hitting Mailings at around 2:45ish. This will make 5 riders in total heading down Rainbow (as far as I know).
