    You know there's no ghosts there right?

    Or have I just spoiled the ride for you?

    Just cos you can't see them doesn'y mean they're not there.

    There's a spare seat in the wagon if you want a ride there & back. You wouldn't be able to pedal with me tho cos I hate people ridng & chatting while I'm trying to keep my fufu valve from errupting

    You'll need someone that knows how to read a gps so you don't miss a turn.
    Not suggesting that you're directionally challenged at all, but, you know how it is when you start concentrating on your fufu valve.
    Next thing, the music stops, you look up, and you're half way along the Heaphy.

    Hey! The first time was a mistake ok - the second time was also a mistake but I had learnt how to make it look intentional by then

    Tried my new Maxxiz hi roller II out today. Very very good tyre. The side walls are heaps tuffer than the original ones as they are tubeless ready. I guess that means I can run lower pressure & not puncture as much.
    Got them from pushies on trademe from aussie for $45.00 free postage in NZ. Almost a 1/3rd cheaper than T7.

    Also, Bermed Monster needs to be renamed "Bermed, Rutted Monster".
    Escalator isn't much better.

    Shocking at the moment, Slippery Rail and Hang 10 are relatively smooth. There's a working bee issue with TDC and the new health and safety laws...
