My offical weather report is... blue sky, alittle chilly atm, cloud about the Tarauras, but otherwise great riding weather. Not sure if Kinje will be on to give his weather report.. prob still in bed with a hangover or something.

Heads Up and Enjoy - Ride Your Own Ride

Wind on the Takas is reasonably stable. As at 8 am was 40km/hr gusting 60. This is slightly less than yesterday when I went up which was 50 gusting 80. No rain. Very ridable.

Here in Mastreton sunny and not too windy- 10 gusting 30.

Will try and meet you guys at the top of takas shortly after 11

Wind built in the last hour to 9 am- 48 km/hr gusting 70. Still all good tho

But I hope the rest of you have fun!!

I turned up at Rimutex at about 10:20, nobody else in sight...waited for ten minutes then got sick of waiting.

Did anyone actually turn up?

I abandoned the group early, had a date with a lawnmower.

The kids a tuna asked me if I could wheelie. I said 'nah, but the dude that rides the green bike is the shit. Ask him'

Was a great day and a great ride.

fuck it. Did I miss a wheelie oppurtunty fueled by ego?

My wheelies are pretty sad after I put a different tyre on the rear actually. Not quite sure why but harder to pick the front up than it used to be.

oh well........
