Does adventure look brown - blue - brown - blue - brown? If so, it was an adventure.
I blame Cary. He was dancing along on tyres similar to mine and must have lulled me into a false sense of security! p/t
But seriously, it was me: 100%. My concentration dipped on the approach to the crest, just as my confidence was starting to improve: a bad combo. I took a poor line, got into trouble and allowed myself to become a passenger.
I'm not beating myself up too badly but I seriously need to improve on the slippy stuff. Rogson suggested more gas was perhaps the answer and I do know at least then I would have been riding the bike instead of the other way around!

Whoa - bit more adventure that I am looking for Chasio. Glad to hear you are ok.
Chasio was the brown bit in your undies ow?![]()
Thankfully not! But it was the colour of my riding ability.
Time for a new user name...Chrashio?
Thanks to everyone for turning up, sorry the Kawhia bit got cut out but I had been wet enough by then anyway...until next time!
You think you're funny.
And you areMade me smile. Can I pass on it long term, though?

Hi again guys,
Cheers for the ride. Just an FYI to say home safely mid evening after a big detour to extend the day a bit... I'll make sure I have those Contis' on the bike when I do another one of those rides. Dang clay!![]()
I have put up a blog about my first adventure ride (this one). since I was sending a write up to my folks in Aussie. I got a surprise when my Mum said she had always wanted to do this sort of thing but Dad didn't. I want to do the postie challenge in Aus sometime. Perhaps I should invite my Mum along. She might want to do a bit of training first though!
Rosie could sell her the sherpa. One careful lady owner......
You know it
And extensive postgraduate research has shown that my sherpa is perfectly suited to adventure riding in Australia.
The road to hell is paved...
My 40th is going to be the lost world abseil at waitomo! Funds wouldn't stretch to the ride either.. though it would be a blast.
