    Kwakka's were there too.

    Throwing around XTZ750's like toys

    Carl Fogerty peddled that Dominator quite quickly too.

    You know what would be really cool- a teams race/event where 2riders had to ride together as a team. That way there was someone tohelp push on the worst places & to pick up the bikes.

    Hmmmm maybe we could work one into a laidback trail ride???

    Apart from the DR Big, there's too much mud to tell.


    But as they'd be from the manufacturers they were riding the IOM TT for, I'd guess Yam, Honda, Kwakka, Suzuki...

    Cool vid,
    Love the homage to "on any sunday" at the end. Just like the final sequence in the original (and best) bike movie.
    Love the idea of a 2 man "advenduro" - I'd be well up for that!

    Fucken oath!
    Team Wuckatoo will consist of Dino n me, (on Dinos BRP).
    Can't think of a more delicious idea than thrashing someone else's bike, and they have to push me out of bog holes, while i'm killing their ride.
    Organise it,and they will come.

    Amen.

    Hmmmm. I'll talk to Nordie & maybe we can get a course worked out. Could do a few laps around the forest,with the odd road section in to keep them road legal. Even a motard sectio ontheold whangamoa Rd (We'll have the videocamera set up on one very slippery corner but won't tell you which - actually no I wouldn't wishthat on anyone really)

    Now all we need to find are steep loose rocky hills, muddy bits, gorsed no exit tracks, tree falled roads, sounds coool

    Anyone interested in coming up or down for one?
    It would of course be a 'disorganised event' with open forestry roads etc

    That was the coolest thing ever. Some big names in there too.

    The team thing you suggested Paddles sounds bloody good.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........
