Agreed on that one, I may have to put the 950 up for sale soon the way things are looking at work. No one has bought the PD and at least one of them might HAVE to go soon.

out and about today, brent wanted to ride the makairo track so off we went....

the mornings ride led us in to rain on the main road.. that soon stopped.. a quick top up with gas and we headed in to the start of the track....

after remembering passed events on this track, people down the banks and bike of the side of the track....i was a tad concerned..

ground conditions where wet and we both had rear road tires on...............

so off we went....over the down hill bridge........

slippery going, couple slips on the track..

the higher we got up the track the more fog we encountered

nearly at the top..

on the way down the other side..

its just a neat ride up in the bush,,the trees have grown back over the track makes that much better...

down with minimal dramas, bit of slipping and sliding..

great way to waist a few hours...........
