So for those who don’t already know the rules are simple. There’s various checkpoints, worth between 1000 and 5000 points, dotted around the South Island. They give you a t-shirt at the start and when you get to one of the checkpoints you have to take a photo of the bike, the landmark and the t-shirt to prove you were there. The target is a minimum 2000km (1243 miles) and 50,000 points by the time you get to the finish point 48 hours later. The TT2000 is very much about setting your ...
Hi guys, I was rushing to the gym yesterday afternoon and I kicked the starter lever on My Trusty RG150(Has given me some trouble but I still love her) as soon as she started she sounded different.I looked around and noticed that the muffler was missing!!!Some motherf$%&er had made off with my muffler and that too really professionally.There wasn't a single other scratch on my bike but now I am really upset and on the lookout for a replacement.What should I look out for when getting one ...
Always wanted to ride around in the forest after finding the entrance that I couldn't get my big bike through, luckily the little thing can squeeze through the stall the mountain bikers use - Amazing trails/roads in this place - Steep wet clay hill, little bike has no problems - Some places don't look ...
From: 15-18/01/16 Murray Gray turned 80 last week and 1st up on his bucket list was to do another 1,000 miler (ie 1,608 km ride) and naturally enough, he approached the NZ Distance Riders for assistance to achieve his goal. We were more than happy to oblige and right from the first word, I was in. I first met Murray about 10 years ago when I started doing Rusty Nut Grand Challenges (1,000 miles in 24 hrs). My first thought at the time was, “Wow, I hope I’m still riding ...

From 27-29/12/15 It’s been three years since Ann has played in the Maori Tennis tournament, which is held annually in Hamilton between Christmas and New Year, and this year we were available again so bookings were made and we were off….although I wasn’t intending to play tennis as I had other plans. An email to STJim, Topher and Goose soon had a ride organized, plus I had to get there and back while Ann would travel with her tennis partner. Someone ...
Well I never got as far as Kawhia, but I digress when the blog has barely begun. The plan was to base myself out of Raglan for Christmas-New Year break, tracking all the roads for accuracy for the open source maps and generally enjoy going down every road and see where it took me. Raglan to Kawhia would normally take around 1-1.5 hours and about 50km, with a lot of that being gravel and slow going – especially if a graded had just been through. I’ve only done the route ...
