The Forecast is looking loads better than a few days ago

Look forward to it, It would be great do be as lucky as last time with the raffles (some great prizes too)..... But I can't see that happening as I usually win nothing

I've not been so lucky with the raffles this year. Hopefully that will change on Sunday.

LOR rides right here within this thread. Fat Bikers (FBMC) also have their own web page (www.fatbikersmc.co.nz) on which they show upcoming rides.

Went for a ride 'around the block' this afternoon. Finished up at the Walter Scott Reserve off Pekanui road. It is a 2 hour walk around this small reserve, so I will go back next weekend and take a wander through it. A couple of photos from today's ride.

Looking back from the start of the walking track.

Even miles away from anywhere (well, 10m in actually), i keep getting told where to go.

A bit further towards the top of Pekanui road.

About 2k of gravel to the carpark.

FBMC are having there Xmas bash and included in that is a ride to Kawhia on Saturday 12th December - For any LOR riders who want to join their ride we are looking at meeting them at Whatawhata at approx 11.45.

If you are a member of FBMC or interested in being part of their group they do have their own website and more details of their Xmas outing are available within there, in the calendar area. (Even though it comes under Dec 2016 meetings, rides & events)

Already looking forward to this years Christmas bash at the Kingsgate, last years was a doozie.

Rode it today and it is amazing! Saw a repsol in a ditch with a group of about 20 stopped. Some of those corners do sneak up on ya! The crash was on one of the signposted 45s though

Repsol, says it all.
Can't just enjoy the road and not fall off, got to push it.

inch:

There's a blind, left hander that tightens just where you think you it's going to open up. That's nearly caught me a couple of times.

It's a great section of road but you need to be wide awake if you're pushing it.

LOL,na the truth hurts, but not as much as being the idiot that falls off a marked up go fast machine on a road that is clear, dry and open. Point taken Moi, but still, open road visibility and speed should go hand in hand.
