Mounting Cnut Hill - Sat 9/5

[bart]

see you at 10

I've been doing lots of practice

Good on ya. Looks a bit slippy.

Sorry I'm out

That's a shame. I was looking forward to seeing you blast up there as if it were a mole hill. I guess the pressure's on me to get a DR to the top unaided.

[marks]

Surely that's what grandparents / relations / non riding friends are for?

so....

are you coming along to watch the carnage?

Abso-bloody-lutely.

Abso-bloody-lutely.

Awesome....silver plastic scattered through the bush will make a nice accompaniment to the black and blue stuff that Mark and I will leave.

actually - I think you'll find that Steve has a little thing that you and I don't - its called common sense
I suspect he will be keeping his silver plastic intact at the foot of the hill (hopefully with JMJ for company) and watching some idiots spreading black and blue plastic all over the side of the hill.

I'm happy to be proven wrong Steve

Tony (blue DR650 form RRRR) may well be coming to spectate as well.

So you're saying I SHOULDN'T put the 14t front sprocket on then?.

Yes, I'm probably just there to spectate.

Hey guys I'm out cause Saturday is a sailing day.
Best of luck & take lots of video.
Steve maybe you shouldn't fill your fuel tank(er) to the brim?

thats a relief

I won't have to endure the shame of you cruising all the way to the top without breaking a sweat while I have multiple offs and slip and slide everywhere...

meanwhile you can start mentally preparing yourself for a Link Track assualt....

[andy mac]

Well it would be foolish to certainly ruin my 1 attempt/ 1 success Cnut record by attempting it again.

Yiip, I'm pschyed for the Link Track assault on Sunday - will start with just a 1/2 tank of gas.

Awwwww come on. That might have been a fluke. You've got to come and do it again so you can 'rub it in'.

Tyres kicked and thingamejig adjusted. Clutch is doing something weird (but that could be the clutch operator), so all good.

Lets go sort this Fcuking hill out.

[gav24]

Go, Go, Go!



I'll be thinking of you boys!

[veny]

Watching with interest...
GPS co-ordinates?
Is it Google-able?

[buggsubique]

What is the Link Track?? what are the timings for this on Sunday? So there's two Wellington rides this weekend? I'm here this weekend to smash out some uni work...but could always fit something in....can the @ come?

Bloody high tech stuff. I dunno.

Here, where the track heads south, just before it heads north west.

ah fuck it, 45% of university assessment can go on hold for a few hours while I make the pilgrimage to CNUT. Is it 10am at Toppy's? Infact I have never been to Toppy's, again only heard of it through the stories of my forefathers...

If anyone else is leaving from Wellies / the Hutt, name a time and I'll meet you at Caltex, otherwise I guess it's 10am at Toppys?
