    Hope you guys have a good ride, did Taylor pass rd tonight, quite powdery, its been freshly worked, but quite rideable. AltiM should be good although fricken chilly me thinks. Very cold night here tonight.

    Shame I can't ride with yas, prob safer though till I get some other treads on the girl.
    There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won't. We should come home from our adventures having faced their perils and uncertainties, endured their discomfort and beaten the odds, with a sly acknowledgment and revitalised solidarity of character.

    Strange, I get the same. "why don't you go climbing tonight, you need to catch up with the guys at the pub afterwards?" Rarely happens on the moto, although if I get really shitty she says, "you need to go out for a ride!!"

    I'll be mapping the trails up Central/Slater's Roads instead.
    Central, Slaters and Top Road are public easments but Top Road isn't on the gps maps (yet).

    Also to my mind they've closed off public easments without the prerequisite signage...
    Where are these roads?? they sound good.

    bloody hell i am out tomorrow, would you believe it i went out to see a customer today and got invited on a ride to lake tennyson tomorrow as well
    must remeber to stop making promises to mother in law to help her round the house.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    Jeez he'd be shedding a tear looking at it now pal. The sooner you get on of those Austrian orange squeezers the better...

    "Those roads" are the same ones we rode up the other nite. Heaps of cool foreatry roads to explore. I love the dry open logged areas for some strange reason - maybe notso many upright trees to hit

    Mate I'm not that easy - you have to get me knocked up first Thanks for that Woodster! I'll order a new one tomm maybe along with a few other goodies...

    I went for a 4hr mountain bike this morning & am pretty shattered - I rememberwhen I was fit & could handle a little exercise. Motos make ya lazy I think - twist & go

    you two gaybar loiterers best stay over that side of the Whangamoas eh.

    only on the weekends Padwan. Generally though the Army recruiters send them types up to Devonport to keep them isolated on a ship for months at a time while we go bush and eat red meat, drink beer and shoot things.

    Not fussy enough to worry who he sold it to, though
