Hi Guys!

I have just made contact with an old friend who owns a huge sheep station in central hawkes bay, It looks to be possible to use this as a base for an adventure ride in the area and could also cover a number of farms in the area including a ride to the top of the highest hills in the district, happens to be on his farm!

Thinking might be a good idea??? What do you guys think???

Did not fall off on the Capitol no! Kirsty would have beaten the shit out of me! was her first adventure ride so could not scare her off! LOL

But when i go down, i go down real good and hard, usually doing lots of damage to me limbs!

recky ride could be a plan! I need to pull some maps and have a gander!

Time off at the moment to go do one is a bit of an issue!
