    Then you guys asked for a set price per person:
    $70 each

    you are then doing this: 70x3=210 divide by 4 = $52.50

    DONT DO THAT! STOP IT! Somebody take the batteries out of his calculator!!
    hahaa calculator is a crappy solar powered one but i figured out what you getting at hard to think of 30 different thing at once and run the shop and 67.5 is still cheap for 4 of us thinking end of next month which could be this month pending on when you read this. Give cheese time to get sorted. and tracks to get bit more rain.

    $180 for the day for you and $280 for the lady = $460.
    usual price $610. This is a full 8 hours including lunch at the award winning Ohinemuri Winery in the Karangahake Gorge and a tour of the old gold mine tunnels and Processing plants. we ride the Neavesville, Maratoto- wires tracks and explore the Waitakauri goldfields. you will get back to Waihi just on dark. I have an accomodation deal with Bularangi Lodge. $50 per person per night.

    And will your bike make it???.... I carry a 520 chain and tubes. you should bring spare levers if you are planning on a few drops.

    hey pal sounds like a good deal. Tell me more about these bikes. Had any probs with the chinese bikes? I'm thinking of either a cheap chinese or old xr.

    I know what people are like with vehicles they've never owned - I had a Lada Niva once - most fun I've ever had & although not super comfy did every thing I needed it to do. And dont worry I have heard all the lada jokes but only one made me laugh out loud.

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=153934471 have a look here - good photos and it tells you about these bikes- only two complaints: delivery has to wait till we can fill a container each time - some times two months or more!
    and the chains are low quality- everything else is real good

    [B]Well- weathers gettin pooier! so unless it drys out a bit it will be a no novices ride cos of the slick clay and possibly swollen streams. Trip may be rescheduled at last minute!

    assuming you are happy with my usual accomodations at $50per night. Then it will be $270 p/p per day plus $50p/p per night. you decide if you want extra nights before and after. I have rental bikes for 6 adults and 2 Hobbits

    Not included- is breakfast and dinner. plenty of choices here (both accomodation providers have full kitchens for self catering.
    )[/

    Well!- who's coming??

    The weather has just turned AWESOME for crazed enduro aces and sado masochists. Real blokes only at this time of year! have you got what it takes to put a group together for some real weekend bonding?

    Big cooked breakfast, hard ass hills and bottomless bogs? -Hot spa and cold beers then a satisfying restaurant meal? And to top it off a ride in [URL="www.thecarverexperience.co.nzURL]on sunday morning before you head home?
