    shit us south of the Mak people need to be shown around your hood Kick, set it up... SVboy can return the favour over here...
    We used to ride Weedons Ross road up to the intake then back down to Haul road fairly often, I keep forgetting to message you lot when we're going out, it's normally about 3-1/2 - 4 hours of riding, there's a bit of forestry and single track as well as the 4wd tracks

    I'll put a long version up which is about the first 1/4 of the ride when I edit it

    The trails on our side probably have changed a fair bit since you have done them. Sadly EC&%T have restricted access to previous prime tracks-the Willows for example. We are doing more enduro type riding-out near the river bank, which is good for challenging our riding. 2 weeks to the Peaks ride-and it is still under snow! What could possibly go wrong!

    After the Peaks last year I doubt I'll bother doing it again, it'll be another mudfest

    My apologies K, I am tied up on Sunday. We will be at the bike park on Saturday at 9.30 if you want to slum it however! Yes Waipara is one of my favourites too. Poor old Grenville's wallet must be hurting! Keep the invites for Ashley coming.

    Well I'm off Trials riding Sunday improving my skills like some sort of better looking Graham Jarvis.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Went out on the Trialsy. Great fun. Mate managed to launch himself across the moderately flat grass area just shy of the carpark. Much amusement but kill lanyard pinged off. Found it but now have a spare magnet incase happens again as kill switch needs one to operate. Or deoperate. Or something.

    This was a couple of weeks ago preparing the tracks for Dave's van but we were out again today

    Found a new track today that hadn't been used for some time but was still useable after we cleared some fallen branches from it

    Well, a funny thing about my van. I got in on Saturday and it was like the handbrake was stuck on. Couldn't free it. 3 weeks ago when I last drove it I parked on the other carpark at the riding area which meant a small stream crossing. Drums must have got water in them. Leave van 3 weeks and. . .

    Had to take wheel off and give drum a tap.

    Last weekend, one of the incredibly rare times I have fallen off, you can see the tree root I lost it on as I come up to it, pity I didn't

    Went to a Trial locally. I'm really quite special.
    Spent most of the day not understanding where the course went. Only rolled down a bank once. Had fun.
