You'll be right Sarge. Here's the area forecast for Dannevagas which covers the Southern Wairarapa as well.

What you've got now is that low cloud which is forecast to clear soon. It'll be a good one!

No worries Sarge. It's blue sky here and on the other side south of the gorge! It'll be a good one!

ok will do ..

bout to text him as well ... he might be in recovery mode .. but with weather & bike how could he resist huh

[banditrider]

Thinking about doing a quick loop around Highway 54 (Fielding-Kimbolton-Rangiwahia-Mangaweka) and then back over Vinegar Hill this arvo. Probably leave Palmy around 1pm and want to be back about 3 or so. If anyone's interested could maybe meet up in Fielding. Gonna log off now but will check back 12ish.

[chanceyy]

Cowboyz & meanie are here ., but bailing back at Ashhurst, picking up yod in Ashhurst & sarge in pahiatua .. may meet dogs on way

[cowboyz]

but wot other suprises might you spring upon unsuspecting victims

Cowboyz was way out in front so only seen the spray of stones as he took off .. not how he tackled them .. being first time thought slow & steady might be order of day .. & trying to stay to the tracks

Who knew the zx9r was a motocross bike? Next time I will have to throw some knobblys in.

[QUOTE=BuckBuckNo1;1177060]I think we may be onto something let's see how things pan out leading into daylight saving.

One ride I have in mind is a dawn to dusk, with morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, [heck that sounds so old fashioned, but you all know what I mean] then say final eating evening meal. Somewhere between 400-600km ride - over the hill and up Manawatu and beyond [and/or] loop ciruit.

Heads Up and Enjoy:yes [QUOTE]

I am very keen for a FULL days riding. As soon as the weather picks up will be all in for planning out some longer routes.

Napier- taupo route is certainly high on the list as is east cape. Then there is awakino - 8 mile.. ohh the choices........

Yep. Good ride back. Had hot choc at ashhusrt and then found out they were going up the saddle so had to go for a blast up to see if the windmills were still there and have a discussion about Yods shaft. Turned back through the gorge just before woodville. Weather is on and off now so hope you guys get home in the dry. Waiting for our vistors to show up.

The videos are up on the "other" website for those with secret logg ins and somehow they went from 12 meg to 635meg on the disc from when chanceyy gave them to me in ashhurst to me getting home. Seriously serious compression going on there but shouldnt be too bad.

There's this great little day-night-day ride I'm doing in October...

Had a great ride this arvo out through Fielding-Kimbolton-Rangawahia-Mangaweka. Had to bail on Vinegar hill cause of gas - had a blast though!
