Be aware there's apparently a big "round the lake" pushbike ride in the Wairarapa on Sunday - not sure of exact details and don't have time to find them, but it's something like leave Featherston around 8.30am and go right round Lake Wairarapa - not sure which direction - but it will be pain down the Western side of the lake with a shitload of bikes. Will also probably put more traffic on the hill going/coming to/from.
Not sure what we're doing yet, may be out and about so may catch you guys/guyesses at some point.

No... It means if you say a place / time hopefully you will get lucky and others will arrive.. I suppose a bit more notice is 'normal' though.
I'm orf to the shed to whack Guzzi bits with big hammers as nearly everything has arrive thanks to swell minded Guzzi parts dudes... It's only a pesky seal (arf arf) and a couple of O rings... Still wanting my new throttle cables though...
