    Start Time ???

    Hi Mike & Phill, what time is this most excellent adventure going to kick off on the saturday morning as i may not be able to get through to Awakino on the fri night.
    Here for a good time, not necessarily a long time

    What time you can get to Awakino? There is an option to catch up a little after we leave as we do head back (on another road) towards Awakino.

    What kind of tyres should i run (that opens a whole new thread!)
    As in, will a really need knobs or will a intermediate style of tyre be ok?
    Or should i just run with whatever roadish rubber the new (to me) bike comes on?
    Bare in mind, i have no intention of making this a race....

    Not at all, if we any reason you are delayed, we can easily meet you a little later as we plan to go to Uruti and then down Kiwi Rd to the Ahititi / Ohura Rd. So we could meet you there if you were running a little late.

    Intermediates will be fine, I have a nob on the front but have done it with intermediates. No it isn't a race, I will more than likely be 2 up with someone on the back new to riding on gravel so I (as usual) won't be going fast.

    Good one Steve, looking forward to catching up again. Maybe a visit to your "favourite" bus shelter and corner might be in order!

    Cheers Mike - I was hoping not to repeat that performance this time - looking forward to hooking up with you and your 'naki hard core pals again - last year was a great ride despite my too close encounter with school bus shelter doh
