    The Tokoroa/Turangi Road????
    I nearly got taken out by a Hawk up there last year, of the feathered variety. Might fine road but, if not a bit bumpy south of Atiamuri.

    I just noticed there's a ghost in my photo. Check the right side of the picture. I'm going to be rich and famous for this one.

    Lucky escape there mate.

    You shoulda given me a heads up on the ride. Ended up riding on my own today cos everyone was busy. Good roads down that way. West side of the lake is pretty good.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    Nah! That'll just be a Mangakino local out playin his Banjo. That place should be fenced in to protect the rest of the country.

    Nah...its a tree stump.

    Glad you missed that horse though. Nearly hit a full grown sow on a bridge in thick morning fog once. Couldnt stop in time so was just lucky the porker didnt move and I could get around her. Did hit a dog once, when I was 15 and unlicenced but the owner didnt complain. Just glad the dog wouldnt be chasing anymore motorbikes after getting a boot in the head at 80kph. Rather sore than dead. Not sure a size 9 1/2 boot would have any effect on the horse and good on you for protecting other road users. That man, and his mates, deserves a beer.

    It is not! NOT! It's an Entling. Is so.Jeez, boring pedestrian people, give 'em something exiting like an Entling and all they want to do is find explanations.

    Exactly so. Sapling = baby tree. Entling = baby Ent. You can see that it's walking around.

    Incidentally, you say it's the smallest you've seen, how many Ents , or Entlings, *have* you seen ?
