Hiya All, have just arrived home. Unfortunately Mighty Max is once again at Experience, Busted. A long story, best told in a separate thread, "Gunnyrobs Beemer breaks down again again"

Good to hear your alive and well Rob, Is there anything you would quickly like to share with the team Also did you give your Insurance guys a wind up, or did they try and blame me? Just got home myself after following only the dry roads, bike in garage, bathtub filling, lifes good

Made my way home from Ohope today to finish off the MMMM weekend.

Almost lost it on the ice around the top of the Rotorua lakes...... (around midday!)

1500k's and 20 hours on the move (thanks Zumo) Top weekend

Yeah, I came through there after leaving Clints and it was icy then too...
Never gets the sun by the looks of it, I have always watched it through there as it has gritty surface almost all year round...

Rode home from Rotovegas today, Heck of a good frost Worked out well as it turned out. I decided to go through Cecil / Leslie Rd to see what it was all about. Gates were open at both ends. The Cecil Rd end was a hell off a mess but only for a short distance. Fortunatly due to the big frost all the mud was frozen solid so the bus just bounced over the top Smaller bikes would get through most days but I wouldnt want to be in there with all my nomates if the mud wasn't frozen.
From there it was off to Mangakino, through to Bennydale, Waimiha, Ongarue across to Okahura Saddle Rd, Waitaanga's, Kiwi Rd (it would be rude not too) Okoki and home.
Shame to miss so much of the organised ride. Next year we will measure the depth of the water more accurately than using the tops of the marker pegs as being ok
Also won't leave a fellow biker again until I am 100% that he is safe Even if he isnt on a beemer
See ya next year Clint

Unlike poor gunnyrob, I took the pipe into my local Stainless steel fabricator. After a few hours and a cost of $20.00 it was all done.....Wish it was that easy for Rob though....Anyway,
F1 wanted over $60, plus the drive. It does pay to support the local talent, they did a great job and it was all back in place by teatime....
Still purrs like a KTM single....

The after......The blue stuff is some anti rust potion apparently helps the Tig weld....Good job guys....I am happy with it.
