    I might try and make it tomorrow at Mana Shell.

    Been up working on the Dakar since afternoon trying to track down an electrical fault finally (wire jumped off terminal inside indicator on last ride and blowing main fuse - arragh!)

    Hey Guys

    Hopefully one of you reads this message before you leave.

    I am still up (or got up) because of a few idiots that decided that tonight was a good night to rip us off
    What they didn't know was that my wife was still up, she busted them in the middle of their crime night, and chased then with one of her crutches down the road

    They didn't get away with much, but we think the Police nailed them, luckily for them....

    So anyway if I am not there at 10am I have slept in, I will text you Merv as I have your number, but I should be there, I have been looking forward to this ride

    Cheers Scott

    OK I'm up raring to go so about to get ready. I'll wait at Mana for a wee while and see if you turn up as it looks like I'll be the only one there with BusaJim and bulabil dropping out, then we pick up Frodo on the way.
    Cheers

    Sorry mate, I got a wasp fly into my helmet doing the Karapoti crossing a few days ago.
    The little bast*rd stung the crap out of me near my eye. After spending the last two days looking like the elephant man, I woke up at 7am to find my eye so swollen shut I couldn't make it, let alone probably get my helmet on! At the time I was riding I thought the pain was pretty average and thought 'is that all you can give me you little proverbial?!' - How wrong was I!

    Hope the ride was good and we get to see some pics.

    Well I made it. Awesome day.

    Didn't think the back tyre would hang in, so bailed after lunch. Came home the long way. Poked around in the north end of the Makairo track to see what state it's in. Will post pics later.

    Mate I'd ride a year on a tyre like that.

    Anyway, posting the ride report and pics here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=66599
