    Happy to try and meet you cruiser guys somewhere on the way up for a coffee?

    Anyone is welcome to join - but it will be a fairly long day
    Keen to hook up on the saturday morning for an early start.

    Bart, where would we potentially hook up with you? Do you want me to book you a bed in a Cabin.

    Marks, are you going to Motel it, or room in with the lower lifeforms this year?
    8 would be good if you ca do it

    the main road is pretty damn mind destroying - what if we go up to Bulls via sh1 then curve a bit north via Marton etc and go to Wanganui and then make it up from there

    Maybe young Bartholemew could meet us at Sanson or Bulls about 9-9.15ish?? - I'll be ready for a coffee by then

    I'll try and get a room at the same cheap hotel I stayed at last time. Actually - they had a house that they rented out that would sleep quite a few bodies - I'll find out costs etc

    Great - you'll need something better than that shit tyre I gave you though - Fischers is slipperyer than the Makiro

    Got a few issues to resolve first, including Mark Signal.
    Other issues of wife, work and which bike are minor in comparison.

    Hi Joe

    Thanks for your email. Cabin 3 is available and I’ve booked it for you for the night. How many will be in there?

    Just to let and the other guys know we are leaving the park on 1 April. We were subleasing it from my brother-in-law and had thought we had an agreement with him to be here for five years but he has decided to sell the park so we have to move. We are returning to Auckland where we came from and because they are going to be looking after the park (and don’t know your group) I should get a credit card number/expiry from you for the booking.

    Tell the others to still send their bookings through before the end of March and I’ll make sure they get their cabins.

    It was great catching up with you guys. You were an excellent bunch to have here and we’ll miss the great groups like yourselves who came through the camp.

    Happy biking!

    Cheers

    Nicki

    Count me in at this stage.

    Better buy a new tyre. Still riding on that worn trail wing. Holes are getting bigger. The tube will be showing through soon. Very interesting in the wet.
    Showing off for the camera since ages ago
