Orange makes you look fat. Black is more slimming.

and I promise not to get lost

Wasn't your fault. I thought tail end Charlie knew where we were going. I learnt something after that little cock up.

If the group gets large, I might have a go at route sheeting the ride so everyone can go at their own pace.

It's around the equinox, so the proximity of the moon overides all other planetary alignments.

Hey Bart ~ for this year's RRRR would you want to throw in those farm tracks I took you and a couple of others on one weekend ~ way back?

If so, I'll need to contact the farmers........

Cheers Wade. I'm still finalising the Sat afternoon ride, and some sections of your ride might fit in nicely. We won't be as rushed as last year.

Ollie wants me to do a smiley...

This is sounding better and better. Farm tracks- cool.
Takapiri- awesome.
Camping at the hot springs- seems popular!
Just hope for good weather now...

Cool. This should be an interesting ride with plenty of variety. Can't wait.

And excited because? Photo op..... and of course, not to mention the great company. But, photo op's? Damn, and hell yes....
Trying to swing this, van and all...Or ride down and maybe a home brew before heading home....

Wade (GPSMAN) has sorted out some Central Hawkes Bay farms to cross Sat afternoon. This is some interesting stuff that's not easy to get access to. Cheers Wade. Good stuff.

ok...i want to do this but i have a big bike with tourances....prolly average off road rider at best,let alone with a big pig at my mercy.Are there gravel road bypasses or other work arounds?

[GPS MAN]

The semi-tough farm tracks are easy to bypass ....The rest of the farm tracks are all weather ridable

[gav24]

Awesome work guys!
Getting excited to finish off my tyres on 2 great days riding...
Any more thoughts on accommodation?
You know why I'm asking! - Hot pools and camping :-)
Had 2 days camping/tramping in the tararuas last week and got a taste for roughing it now!
