    Life would be so much easier if you addressed questions with a simple answer.

    Road trip (except with 4 wheels) with a mate to go mountain biking around Rotorua, Taupo, maybe Pureora or Whirinaki and then Te Miro on Monday on the way north.

    Haven't done most of it, so should be good fun (provided I don't fuck myself up like last time)

    Heading over to Coromandel

    ​Picking up the DR800s and then sadly looks like I am having to put my kids down...
    The GSH brother and Sister are old now and I have been putting it off for some time, so will have to do it.
    To take my mind off things, a ride on the Saturday and Sunday will be in order I think.

    Oh No!

    I'm heading up to the National Sidecar rally at Miranda on Sunday, otherwise around home with in laws staying, fixing the accelerator cable on the DS80 so we can sell it and whatever.

    Heading into the Eyre mountains for a few days of rugged trails, swamps,river crossings and rock climbing. 3 dr 200's and 1 xr 250. Should be a hoot.
    Weather can do whatever it wants, I care not.

    Staying put... can't be bothered dealing with the traffic... and who needs long weekends when you're retired?

    Sounds like a good weekend, want pics... or it's just a "puff of smoke" illusion...

    I'll be doing the coro loop. All the tourists with their camper vans have about my speed around corners anyway.
