Who's riding where tomorrow?

[Sunday Casual]

Went to the poweradventures scramble today and it was hot and really dusty - still enjoyable though.


Was wondering who's doing what tomorrow? I understand that the Woodville GP is on but was looking for something a little closer to home (Auckland).


Any ideas / suggestions would be awesome.

[theblacksmith]

Wel Im thinking of going to Thunder X Valley tomorrow for the day with my son.
Just rebuilt a kx125(88model) for him so we gonna give it a run tomorrow.
Anyone else thinking of Thunder???

Oh - and welcome to Kiwibiker Sunday Casual.

depending on the weather ill either be at the sandpit or the maramarua trail ride

[Jinxycat]

the maramarua ride for me, had a beach ride the other weekend to see if my leg would explode, lol, be my first trail ride since jolly rooster eight months ago, bone still non union in three places, two places knitted OK though, still that's what the titanium plate is for isn't it? cant wait any more he he, see you all there

[clmintie]

Sandpit was awesome today, the soft dry sand was too much fun on the 125.... and I'll go back again on Monday....

[oldskool]

Verdict still out whether to do the maramarua fun day or trusty ole Sandpit. Weather dependent.

[SpikedPunch]

Sandpit Monday I think, beach today!

[flyingcr250]

well maramarua was wicked, i couldnt believe how dry and dusty is was, good to meet up with cheese and rupe, awesome day

[theblacksmith]

Drove to Mangakino only to find that the domain where the moto x track is had hundreds of campers on it! Track was closed because of this "Kiwiburn" event, whatever that is.
Turned round and a few ks up the road we (my son and myself) couldnt resist the logged bush.
What a day it turned out to be! No tracks - just make your own. And it was fairly dry as well but not dusty.Sweet pumice hillclimbs! We had a blast. Whilst on the firebreaks on the way in a DoC vehicle came round the corner and saw us full on. My first thought was - Oh no, but hey,the driver just waved and smiled politely. All in all - a great day out.

Hey there!

Just wanted to know how your ride went? Geez it's a long time between rides for you! Has your partner got herself a bike now as well, or will she use yours?

[clmintie]

Yup, Sophie and I will be there for sure.....

Yeah it was awesome. I't glad to have done Everest. That was a wicked hill climb. The hill climbs on the track just opposite Everest were way cooler though. Pity greg charges $40 to rider there. Its a bit of a rip off.

Thats why Ive shyed away from the power rides lately - Theyre all $40 or more and there s nothing about the rides that make them more superior than any one else's Ive noticed.

[Ktmboy]

Well for the first time in 3 months Woodhill forest is getting a lashing.

Quite a few of us heading out for a blast so we'll see you there.

That was great, did well didn't cane off too many times and the plate held up, no hosptial for me this week, feelin sore this morning but all ok. Dea has not got her own bike yet, workin on it and she has given up on riding mine, said it kinda like at dwarf riding an elephant, fell off one to many time and now wants something smailler.

Yeh I avoid them as well! If he's getting heaps of riders he doesn't need to charge less.
How many riders there cheese??

[Rupe]

Yeah enjoyed it, heaps of cool tracks in there. $40 is steep and does take the shine off, but maybe greg's saving up to get his ears fixed!

I remember the first time I went up everest, I thought the hill was short so did not give much thottle and as i got to the kink in the climb was going holy shit as it got steeper still and started losing momemtom, just made it to the top there was no way i was turing to go down would be harder than going up.

[krad_nz]

Had an excellent ride at the sand pit today. Mint conditions!
