Anybody like mud?

[That looks like fun]

Have been speaking to Phil and we have a loose plan :woohoo: A bit of a show of interest please in a muddy ride either first or second weekend in May :scooter:
It will be big bike do-able (I only fell off once or maybe twice but the second time don't count because I was still getting over the last time ok :facepalm:) But :shutup: KNOBS PLEASE
All those keen make a noise and we will make it happen :corn:

[Crisis management]

I'm in, depending on work, dates and the generousity of SWMBO...

[Cary]

Yep, sounds like fun. Port will be aged perfectly by then :woohoo:

I vote for second weekend (14/15) :)

[young1]

Couple more teasers for ya

Where is that bridge Colin?

[nic]

Well...I have just about got used to getting all dusty :clap:

Not sure if I like mud..but maybe May would be a good time to find out?

T63's knobbly enough??

[michael e]

nothing booked at this stage,so its sounding good to me so far:yes:

[.chris]

I am semi keen depending on dates.

But I have 2 options with the knobblies.
Either leave them in the garage or
Slowly disperse them all over the tarmac on the southern motorway.

[That looks like fun]

Provided we dont have two weeks of rain prior any half good knobbly will do. The mud is not really that bad but its a bit more than dual sports will deal with. :shutup:
As I pointed out I have taken the Beemer through these tracks and if she can do it you can too nic. See ya in May :yes:

[Phreaky Phil]

T63's knobbly enough??Yea.T63's good. I'm using Mitas E09 which is almost identical.

[Phreaky Phil]

[Phreaky Phil]

Where is that bridge Colin?Bridge is on the way to Earnie's place

[Dawn Patrol]

Well...I have just about got used to getting all dusty :clap:

Not sure if I like mud..but maybe May would be a good time to find out?

T63's knobbly enough??Cool! I'll be going, although I'm not keen on mud myself and I'm only on the back lol!! Will be good to have another female onboard.:yes:

[Steelie]

Yep, I'll have a crack at that.

[junkmanjoe]

which part of our fine land will this mud be at......with in riding distance.
are we talking mud........or :blink:MUD:shit:

JMJ

[That looks like fun]

Mud? Phil said I am not allowed to mention mud again Joe :innocent: The ride will be starting Wanganui - ish (note older style uncultural spelling :facepalm:) and ending Eltham - ish. :yes:
It is going to be a mix of Gravel, farm tracks, and clay surface paper roads. With a little bit of Tarseal thrown in just for fun. If the weather is dry the whole ride could be done on dual sports, as the clay rds are not big up and down hill type roads.
Clay being clay it gets slippery when wet :shit: So knobblies are a must.
Its not going to be as bad as Fishers :shutup:
There is a lot of awesome country side to see and a bit of history as well. :love:
As I have pointed out I have done the ride on the Beemer. If her and I can do it, anyone can :yes:
Now that the Pukemanu is out the way Phil and I can get on with the plans and we may even post a few more tempting photos :woohoo:

If we won’t slow you all down too much, Penny and I could be keen for this. Will you be 2-up on the Beemer Phil? How will it compare to Pukemanu?

[Phreaky Phil]

If we won’t slow you all down too much, Penny and I could be keen for this. Will you be 2-up on the Beemer Phil? How will it compare to Pukemanu?I think we will be going down our big hill. If its really shitty we can amend our plan on the "fly". In the dry it should be easy. If wet? Like I said , in the dry:D
2 pics in the dry
2 weeks later
2 pics after rain
