I'll arrive at Caltex Rimutaka (Rimutex : ) ) at about 10:15, depart by 10:30. I don't expect anyone to come along really, especially if you went last week with Skelstar like I didn't because I was on call.

Anyways, I am not on call tomorrow, I have a couple of dollars for petrol, itching to go on this particalular road and a bike I still feel like I cannot ride even close to properly.

Pace.. Umm.. I don't know. I feel like I am dawdling, but I am probably not. I'm not on a 12 year old 400, if that is a clue.

Anyway, if this sounds like the thing for you, I'll see you there. If not, a sweet day alone for me :) .

Was going to head uover about 30mins after that. Not to castlepoint nessesarily so might see ya's at some point.

Apparently theres a bit of crap on the road from floods etc so watch it. No gravelle.

But French gravelle, damn, that's nasty shit. Maybe I should fit knobbly tyres and raise the bike. Ya know, just in case.
