Mind you the lad piloting that thing is known to be rather quick in the corners.

Good vid Pete!!!

Anyway!!!!!

WNR. Weather sounds ok??? Little River.

BK, Dyers Pass, Gebbies Pass, left onto Millar/er's Road, first regroup just before the Akaroa hiway on Millar/er's Road, Akaroa Hiway to Little River pub.

If the weather and daylight are ok I will be going over to Barry's Bay, anyone else who thinks that's a good idea, ........................ Go for it!!!!

awesome, sounds like a better ride than the hurinui.. everyone loves the hills.. ;-) hope the weather holds up for the WNR thou.

I'd be keen to try Barry's Bay / Akaroa / Wainui but the longer the trip the further behind I'll end up :P

How're you, Mr Hornet?

All good here, looking forward to some good rides this season, provided the wnr weather curse has been lifted.

If it's not raining in the morning I should be along tomorrow - will even have my clear visor fitted .......... hehe

Sorry to have missed the ride tonight, got caught up Dirt biking with Jen and her son. Daylight saving messes with my head.
How was it? No dramas I hope

Very undramatic really, apart from the loose chip on the Gebbies turn off at Teddington. Your absence was duly noted.

Thumbs up for the food at the Little River pub, cheap and very tasty and I'm not crook....yet......

Yes, and yes for the last two or three years.

Was a lovely evening for a ride last night. Thanks to all who came along.
