    The real adventure nowadays for me, is trying to outbid people on tardme for second hand tyres
    I mean really, who is pricing the new tyres. $300 for a TKC rear, or the Heidenau thingie.

    And on Mt Wellington. You have to be a little careful test riding adv bikes on those two little mountains, especially when jumping the cattle grids.

    If you are after the Heidenau Brett go straight to this guy and ask for a deal
    If I had a KTM he is the guy I would deal with all the time
    Shameless advertising I know

    I wasn't rising to the bait...it's heifers on Mount Eden, sheep on One Tree Hill and a bloody great cross on Mt Roskill. A wonderful choice of different lifestyles around here!
