[Paladin]

oh man i miss all the good stuff........

You should ride more sensible like wot I do(!) and stop breaking your bike!

[BMWST?]

Well i have gone and done it...sitting in my garage is a well used and seemingly well looked after R100GS
So I am going riding on Sunday,my first ride wont be a marathon,thought i would head to the Wairarapa,and out to Riversdale.On the way back from Riversdale there used to be a gravel road which dumps you out near Martinborough i think...I think the sign says Homedale????
What say you Welly Ites...

Hi, I could be interested in a quite cruise of some of the Wairarapa's Gravel roads. You could set a time to meet at Rimutaka caltex, for anyone from wellington showing an interest.
