[Tony W]

Sounds good, count me in, a trip up from Nelson for a few days should be managable if I book my leave pass now...I'll watch this thread for updated info.

What a Legend !!!

[Tony W]

I might be in for this, dependant on how many days off I can give myself....who parked Auckland so far away from decent riding country!

Ian, I'll drive up there with a trailer and get you !!!!!!

Jst wondering u Boyz with BIG BIKES if u wld b happy to have a girl on a pimped up DR 200 join in........????????? Did 477ks,mostly in rain from Hastings,Taupo Rd, thru forest to Murupara,Taupo and bk to Hstings wth XRJohnny the wkend before last. Not as fast as u guyz but can handle gravel & ride as much as I can off road!

Hey there DR Girl, my partner has got the same bike ( unpimped version ) and she is always keen to ride with another lady. Will pencil this ride in and if we can make it will se you there.

Pencil me in..............but like a lot of the other rides, something (work) often gets in the way.

Hey, Hawkes Bay. Now I'm back in the country, and getting the trusty DR350 on the road, I will be keen to join in, and drag a few work mates in as well.

The "real people" police. Can't have Latte swilling wannabe's assimilating with good honest hardworking Kiwi's.
I'm hoping to make this ride, but since I can barely organise myself one day ahead, I'll have to see how things pan out.
Cheers.

Right, who's had a vocabulary expansion then??

I am keen to do this, but again depends on leave etc. I presume that there will be an option of a shorter route for those of us who want to get back to the beers quicker!

[offrd]

If i can keep the bike in one piece until then, count me in!

Great to hear from the first of the local lads!
Keep in touch if you need any help with your 350.
Also I'll be doing some scoping rides over the course in the next few months
so you are most welcome to join in...

I'll post them a few days beforehand so any desperados can come!

thanks mate, yeah, I've got a bit of work to do and $$ to spend, got to get some dual purpose tyres, chain, sprockets, etc, and put all the road kit back on her, but hopefully in a month or so I'll be ready.
