    How'd you get an email ? I've tried with "my rides" but they said they don't do it any more. They said they just post on Facebook when they are informed of a cancellation.
    We checked my rides before we left. No postponement.
    So we nearly got there and noticed vehicle's with bikes coming towards us, I said to son, check Grenvilles adventure rides on Facebook, thats when we found it. What a waste of petrol. Gutted.
    Roll on next Sunday, I'm still keen as this is a new ride.

    120 km's today at Omihi trail ride today. Fresh green grass made things interesting, catching a few people out. Weather was kind and not hot, but a little windy on the tops. Number 2 son and I did all the enduro loops and main track three times. First lap saw me on Beta 300 and him on WR 450 where he struggled big time on the enduro loops on the heavier taller bike.
    Lap two saw me on WR 450 and him on the Beta 300. No holding him back on that bike and I had no problems either (having longer legs)on a bike I've owned nearly 5 years (its like an old friend that wants to rip my arms off)
    Lap 3 saw me still on WR and him not wanting to hand me back my Beta.
    Anyway I'm knackered but unhurt as I had no offs.
    Great day and good catching up and riding with some of the boys.

    That's a video that needs to be shared, for educational purposes. I might learn from it after careful study.

    Excellent video, Shaun had the same off in the same spot on WR as your first off, first lap as well. Bloody slippery green grass

    Pretty obvious what the problem was, you ride a 4 stroke
