My Sharlands Creek mapping so far...

It's going to be fun at the x-country at around 3:00-3:30pm
The sun is right in your eyes going west up the steep hills.
Also there's still some slippery stuff around...

With more frosts forecast all week, it'll be skiddier than a skid site.

Windstop thermals and body armour at the ready!

I'm not going for a ride today.

1. Pinched tube changing rear tyre from MT21 to Kenda 760 - no spare tubes.
2. Spoke missing from front wheel.
3. Nice 2cm long slice in front sidewall.
4. Not worth the risk

Went for a ride today around Isolated spur Rd & tracks off it. Yep it'll be cold for those with just a jersey & roost suit. You're also right about the sun I was without a peak & had to ride onehanded up a few western facing hills.

Nordie, any idea if it'll be the same track as last year?

Gidday JC. Might be a slight change of plan. After the gge night WW wants to do some sus set up by running the same track a few times. I'd like to do the same but there should be time after that for a bit of spin south. Might be a later start though.

Cheers R

Should I worry? Do you have a kmz file of the last one?

Evening gents

Any of you Nelson fullas around this weekend?

Picking up my bike in Chch on Friday then riding to Nelson with twin Bro on his DR650, gonna do a 1000km ride so I can have it serviced in Chch on Monday then back down to Wonka Monday night.

So we thought we would take the opportunity to meet and catch up with some of you Nelsonians if you are about, we are tentatively planning to leave about lunchtime or just before on Friday.
