More of the same? I enjoyed it - don't get enough opportunity to go & get wet

& as for that lad with his apehangers - I was suitably impressed

Good ride, rain not a problem, beer good. Cheers Iain.

Couple of bad phone pics at Puhoi.

Had a ball - thanks Iain.
It fair bucketed down heading home down the m'way. There must have been about 15mm of surface water on the road until I got over the bridge and of course the traffic stirred it up a fair bit. Visibility was a bit of a problem and now I know how a torpedo feels.
I was half expecting to see a few going overhead.

I don't multi task very well....we stop for coffee or beer otherwise it's riding.
I think PJay said it best a few months ago, "I think I do about 5,000kms per photo"

We obviously need a photographer (not Cary cause he's cursed) how about it, we only ride at nana pace and have been known to be friendly???

Great ride Crisis, only one u turn, but it was worth it.
That final stretch of rain just about power washed the bike, until I looked this morning when things had dried out a bit.
See at the MMM ride.
Cheers Al
