    New toy to try tomorrow.


    Should make short work of the new growth that's too soft for the Pocket Boy or chainsaw.

    There's a little track that needs clearing...

    That baby machete only looks good enough to shave with.

    I bought one of these recently, a 2 in 1 machete, leave the pruning saw at home....

    When u really need some good slashing power, go the longer blade, the saw component is a bonus.

    The baby machete with a 5mm thick blade is a beast

    Make sure you have adult supervision.
    And
    Double bag your fingers..........
    Keeps them away from the ice, makes them easier to re-attach later.
    I can smell you....

    You should come mate... the kids will be fine left in the car with a bag of chips and some fizzy. You might want to leave it running though, so the heater keeps the wee tykes warm

    Sounds like my ride only Sunday, I got, rode around a bit, then up Mangatapu, got flat front tyre, rode round a bit more on flat front, didn't fall off, went home and changed it. The EXC goes quite well on a flat front, just no hard cornering.

    Went and had a good play in the snow with the family yesterday at St Arnaud (in the car) good fun but bloody cold. Glad I didn't take the bike. No ice = good skids!
    Plenty of ice today though, it's gonna be lethal next couple of days. Feckin cold too.
