Pin pulled.
Nighthawk wasn't feeling 100% and imagine staying in snow when you are already unwell... By the time we got back to Dunedin I was soaked, frozen, and feeling terrible myself.
I think that was my first ever day ride to a rally and the first time NH has pulled the pin.
Weather looks great outside now though...
