Nar sorry Takitimu, this ride has flowen under the radiar, and just poped up.

Still got the green falcon? might see you their.
Shouldn't be too many klx450r's up their, easy to spot

that mx track kicked my arse last time i went, and the trail is getting really rough almost like a tarseal road with bumps.

5th February 2008, 09:45

Seriously?
One of the members at my gym won the Body for Life challenge one year. He was given a Z3 to hoon around in.
I know guys, you should all come down to Wellington and go for a scoot. I feel like I'm the only offroader down here.

5th February 2008, 13:50
Mate I'd love to come ride with you, but its so far away.....
Yeah I was creeping up to 24% body fat and 87kg so thought it was about time to change things. I've dropped to 17% body fat and now 80kg. got a few more CM to loose of my tummy and I want to get to 12% body fat. Feeling really good. Its an amazing program. Plus a mate asked me to be a groomsman so I didn't want to be a fatty in his pics.

The clay is getting mighty hard at the moment alright, been to thundercross quite a bit lately so I thought I would go check kimmys out since I haven't been there since the first time me and you went.
Don't want to go to the sandpit, saving that for the winter and I expect Ardmore will be pretty busy being a holiday.

Sometimes Ardmore is better when busy as they split the classes and its a better ride whether your a slower or faster rider if its two classes.
Can't wait to get back on the MX bike but my shoulder is still screwed from the road accident at xmas.
Have a good time guys!

just rang raceline and it said that they will be opening at 4-8 as usual. Dan, when there are heaps of people it can still be good. split classes means that people like us can ride both the beginner and then try keep up for 5 laps during the advanced laps.
think i might join you at kimmies, would you be keen on ardmore on the way back?

Man your keen, I will probably be pretty wrecked after kimmys and I need to get home at a reasonable hour to spend some time with my little one.
