It wasn't all that hard really was it.

I did photoshop that pic to make it look more mysterious, but you've foiled my plot!!!

Yee of little medium-term memory... I was the one eating the muesli bar chatting with Hitcher while you and [insert name of people who should know better] took [insert WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYY too long a time] to replace a FUSE on your bike at Whenua Tapu...

Sometimes my memory is terrible. This appears to be one of these cases. You weren't riding the Kwaka then were you?

Getting excited about the ride too...

I think I was... Feb I got the bike. I think I had it then... yeah, pretty sure I was, cos I remember feeling like a dick as Velox f***ed off up Paekak afterward still leaving me for dust, even with me on a 636.

How many are on small bikes? I was going to take the AX100...

**James Deuce** · 1st October 2005, 09:18

I'll bring the 400 so the power to weight thing evens out.

Well the wind had better die down - I could only do 60 into it on Waterloo Quay last night!

Yeah got the breeze also at that spot Skunk, just at the intersection by the railway station. That side wind at times is enough to give you the shits!
