Wellington it is a glorious day to get out there

There's an adventure ride planned for Sunday. But I realised that I don't like group rides last time so leaving them to it

Plus I want to ride my 765. That'll be Sunday as I'll be on the lightweight on Saturday. It's kinda dumb but means I can ride alongside my daughter. Frigging pedals.

If you guys are planning a visit to the Hunterville Hot dog place, let me know, the ride through the back from Fordell through to Hunterville - it is awesome - I'd be keen

Heck yeah that's cool. Actually stunning in Autumn as the leaves are all changing and weirdly hypnotic.

Yeah, some of the best road of it's kind I reckon
It is especially magical through autumn, the amazing vastness of colours/shades of the trees filling the valleys etc some of the best I've seen.

I spent the first 13 years of my working life as a telecom/postoffice/ post office savings bank sparky based in wanganui we covered from waverly to horopito to summit of desert road, summit of gentle annie /naperi taihape one down to bulls and every little bit in between . Telecom had hundreds of country sets so we did pretty much every single road, a fiar bit of helicopter and jet boat work as well. There are countless rides and I knew every single bend of them.
A few have been fully sealed since i started in 1979 but not a huge amount, If i still lived there i'd probably get another adventure bike. You're right, the autumn was always stunning travelling. our furtherest station was over three hours drive from base too.
