Hi Matt, My son is riding with me, also on a DR650 so there will be another bike. Hope that is OK.

I'd also like to join the posse. Are there still spaces?

First time Dusty Butter (suspect that is not the right terminology) would like to tag along for the Chch to Fairlie ride on the Friday ok?

What fuel range is needed for this leg?

Cheers

Hey Mark,
Be good to see you, there is no offical limit on numbers however keeping the whole group together will once again be a challenge

Cheers

No more than approx 180km between drinks, if you run out we can always use whatastoners dreadlocks for a tow rope!

Assuming you make it across the strait!! Good luck with that, sounds like a cool mission
And will see you on the pre Butt.

By the way I use to own a Dommie, couriered it in London for about 10,000km and took it for a short trans Europe tour. Bloody good bike, unfortunately my starter motor blew and so I soon got sick of kick starting it as a courier so it had to go
Always liked that twin exhaust rear look, wasn't so fond of the ugly screen it had
