    While not quite as keen as Jantar (and the flyer points, and points required for each award haven't been released yet) yes, its for road enduro riding. No one ride specifically, but all the big ones. If you can alter your drinking etc slightly, resulting in you being in much better physical/mental condition, it can make it vastly safer.

    As a comparison, a coro ride is a mere snip. Relaxed pace for 5-700km, casual eating etc. Rides coming up on my hit list are a 2nd GC, TT2000 next year, and the SCRR (along with more GC and TT2000) in 2011

    For events in the South Island, you also have the travel down and up (which can easily add another 2000km), and I prefer to use a bit more time in the South Island, using the better roads. Still haven't ridden from Kaikoura to Blenheim along the coast

    Naked bikes make the ride more physical again.

    I think Gremlin should just ride with me on my more eclectic pootles for practice ...
