    4 hours there, almost 5 coming back...had one gust that took me from an indicated 95 -> 60 km/h and to the right about 600 mm. Saturday I was convinced the DB1K is doable, today not so much...

    Oh and economy...<20km/L my car does better

    Of course it's doable on your Lego land bike.
    It would be a challenge, but I think you like a challenge

    OK Saturday is dedicated as official riding day. Nordie has his new vest, I have been watching the Wellywood underwater demo team in action, the Redbull city scramble & I have forgetten how rooted my back was feeling after last time.
    I need to change my knob, charge my helmet cam, work on my abs then I'll be ready for a day of exhausting fun.

    Bring it on Nordieman

    Frick knows wher we're going. I just follow Nordie. he was talking about some new track to the gunclub or somethong. At a guess it'll be down a steep track, into gorse, thru a river & over some freshly cut branches.
    i'm gonna make sure I've got enough coolant in the radiator.

    I thought you had a screen now you big wuss.

    Nordie hasn't chimed in yet so perhaps he had bigger plans as he's baching it this weekend.

    Oh 1pm low tide in mot & good weather. Looks about the same time at Anatori??? Could do a full day mission & end up at the beach for some dune races????

    If there's enough interest in Anatori, we could possibly organise to have a proper lunch at the Nugget Cafe. I'd need numbers confirmed though.

    Hira just needs Moro bars.

    Hira is more a low speed slog with people pushing bikes around a bit as it'll be soggy still. The Gun Club bit isn't as steep as some we've done and is a cool ride for those who haven't braved the drop down from Mt Everest.
