    My hat's off to all of you guys on the bigger bikes, even on my little fizzer I had trouble keeping up with you guys in the tight twisties in the trees! I think that says a lot, not only about your great riding but also about mine

    Had a good day on bike yesterday:

    Me and a mate rode up Southside of waimak to gorge bridge then cut thru Whitecliffs and up the Mount Hutt access rd to the top. (see photos in XR650 thread) - I didn't realise it is open to the public (for walking access), you other boys should go up for a spin, grouse road but be warned there was quite a bit of ice in shadows.
    Came back down and picked up a third mate in town at 1500 and shot thru Purau to Port Levy then over gravel to Little river then up to Bossu rd around to Wainui. Then up stock route and down into Pigeon Bay and back thru Port Levy again to Christchurch in time for the product launch of the new KTM 1190 Adventure at Superior motorcycles at 1800...mmmmm free beer and subways
    Awesome bike, lots of new technology but I'm afraid its a bit to road orientated for my liking, lots of plastic to smash and all models fitted with road tyres

    Hey man, I made one for the vid and forgot to include it!

    This is what I *think* we did http://goo.gl/maps/JQqEG

    Edit, the last bit of Diamond Harbour is slightly off as the track we went down isn't a road so I can't mark it., even tho it's called Bay View rd.
    You can see it on the map here: http://goo.gl/maps/8X7xr

    From Duvauchelle Stock Rd up to the Summit Rd we went down Pettigrews Rd not Middle Rd, I think Pettigrews has better views.

    Didn't even notice that rd there on the map! I know we went to the left of the main rd, close but no cigar.

    more access is lost on the north bank of the waimak. the bunyons (sp?) rd was shut but there was a gap so i went in as normal but the ranger was at the other end and said the whole area is now for horses due to damage. we now have to go further up the seal and enter in at harrs rd or further up

    Haven't seen any damage, there's nothing but road and stopbank tops to ride on that east of Harrs anyway since they locked off the road at the MX track.
