Does tearing around the house on the TYs count as a ride?

I'm counting on it not being at 10am at Stortford now

Weather forcast is for clearing and warming up... so I'll be going out riding sometime today - no doubt about that.

(How many bikes can get up to 101km/h round your house at one time Jase?)

Might go to the snow up the Taupo road at 2.pm. I will be at the Taupo turn off, North of the turn off by half a km on the Taupo road at the weigh station on the right, at 2.00pm if you want to join me. It will be a slow ride for me but the rules for the ride are, Ride at your own pace and regroup at the snow or the summit kiosk.

Good luck guys. Looks like lots of snow from here in napier. But went over yesterday morning and back over lunchtime today (all in the cage) And can safely say there is fark all snow anywhere. Not bad road conditions for a ride to taupo even. Tiny bit damp in places but thats about it.

I went to woodville today - great ride. Only 1 hour 10 - and 1 hour 10 back.

Had to wait for Shirl she was coming up from Wellington. No cops on road. Good slow 101 km/h ride

Proud of that, I'll bet!
