Yea I put the idea up so people could make coment, I did have a funny feeling there would be a bit of gravel in and around that area. Any suggestions for alternatives along the same theme??

Well the VFR turning into a REAL touring bike, next thing you will be telling us you have put a sheapskin on the seat, and fitted hard luggage

And besides isint it the Kawaka that really needs the GPS, lets be honest here.

See they have room enough to play cricket,now rules are no running between wickets,can't be out on 0 runs,hit a ball one scull,hit a 4 get 4 runs plus 2 credits for sculling if needed for next couple of balls,hit a 6 get the runs(6)plus 4 credits for sculling,can't be out for rest of the over.Each miss is a scull,hence it is good to have a few credits.

Now a Cricket Match with Northern vs Southern and /or West vs East etc would be a excellent idea!

Me and Qkkid have Friday off but are flying back in from overseas that day. Dont land until 12pm so if we have the engergy to ride down after.... otherwise it will be Sat Morning.

Well if you decide to steer us into gravel, I might bring the DR down instead!

Heh I am interested, how many cabins are available? It is likely that they will be booked out?

I am out of the country in April so wont be fully making my mind up until I am back in May.
