Oh yeah by then you can ride it legally eh? Man it's gonna be awesome, it's a shame you missed the last tour we did through there (that you organised)! Hopefully it ain't gonna rain, otherwise you guys will all be waiting hours for me, hahaha.

sweet as guys... a little rain and it will still be on, but if forecast is for tornados it wont... obvious keep an eye on it few days before hand, and final decision will be made friday 30th

So far, there are only four of us, all coming from auckland, so definitely no problem with accommodation so far. Im heading over to ohakune the weekend before to take sleeping bags and blankets, and will also go through forgotten highway to check her conditions out.

so far there are two almost definites, and one probably, so there are possibly 3 at this stage. If you PM me, i can give you a number to call them to arrange a time and place to meet to ride up to Te Kuiti

**GSXR Trace** · 13th January 2009, 19:28
