I so wish I'd done this ride now - knew I shouldn't have done that fun run when I saw all the bikes heading in the oppostite direction...!

another one on the 1st may

whatever the weather between now and then it'll still be damp and slippery!

We're all go for another ride this Sunday (1st May) and have added a couple of new loops just for fun. Kezza bring your camera and ride report. We're talking about adding some semi extreme obstacles to parts of the MX track and running Enduro races one day. Always looking for new helpers and fresh ideas.

choice. we're there

Yeah my M12 has gone from great to not so great, I was slipping around a heap at the rear.

having cleaned my bike I reserve a special swear for the induhvidual who supplies the number labels. C'mon guys, why do they have to be enormous, paper & permanent adhesive? Takes 10 min just to pick the frigging thing off the front of your bike.

[kezzafish]

very hung over. twas good tho. surprised how much the cooks loop had rutted/bumped-up after last time. was sliding around like a mofo up there. Cheers Justin and everyone from KMMC

[F5 Dave]

Yeah I do have to say it was well run. They even said that the track was changing during the day, unlike the Mt Biggs ride I went on which was a surprise.

[Fryin Finn]

I put my back out kick starting the gasser in the A loop at the top of Puketiro road ending my day early. Twas a good ride with perfick slippery conditions. Nxt ride over at Cannon point on .... um dang I wrote it down somewhere. I'll get back to you.

Hey Dave,

Have been told De-Solv-it is the answer, but I haven't had to remove too many stickers since I found some in Mitre 10.

Desolvit takes off the sticky residue, but the problem is the label itself is paper & just rips as you try to remove it. [Eastend accent] Drives me mentul.

[kezzafish]

get the paper wet and rub it with a rag. As is often the case... the wetter the better. then use petrol to get the rest off. 2 minute job, 3 max

[F5 Dave]

that's what I did, more like 10 min & gee if it was a proper label it would have peeled off just like that but with no danger falling of mid ride.

[kezzafish]

It wasn't wet enough (as is occasionally the case). you should spray and walk away (always the case)

We're not talking about bike stickers any more now are we?

[F5 Dave]

who can tell, but a vinyl label would have solved the issue in a 1 second 'shiiick' maybe followed by a wipe.
