    Don't even worry about it on the road, There will be plenty of traffic on the roads to sweep it to one side and simply add to the scenery and on the track on the way in there will have been plenty of traffic and should be a clear path. If you do strike fresh snow on the track going in it can make it hard to see hidden stones etc underneath which will add to the nerves, try and keep ya feet up and if nervous follow someone. The reality is I find it easier to ride on snow as its not as slushy as water and mud, but it all depends on the depth of course The track is to a quarry and as such in pretty good order and has been recently serviced.
    You'll be right

    make sure engin is on & in gear, but mostly travel at a speed you feel good with, riding in snow is not that hard avoid heavy breaking, slow down earlier & use gears other than that just have fun

    Pre Paid ticket avaliable

    I have a mate who has pulled out on me from this years cold kiwi. So i have avaliable 1x prepaid ticket if any one is interested. I am after $35 which is the cost of prepays this year. I will be there around lunchtime on friday and the buyer would need to meet me at the gate to claim it, as this year they do not send them out. You just collect the ticket and badge at the gate. Let me know if anyone is interested and we can work out rest of details from there.
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....
