Probably best to get out there on a weekend due being a forestry area, worth the ride tho, just fantastic up there. Have fun boys.

Found where it is

Now I just need to sneak away from work and do a 800km round trip to claim it. Bad day at work and I know where I'd rather be!!!

Cheers R

well up yours too then!

Was thinking it would be good for ALL bikers to be involded in,as a biking community in the top of the south, but as you have a small minded (Nelson) attitude, forget it.

It WAS only a suggestion.

Try adding Belgrove to your search.........and you may need to do some navigating to get there.

If you wanna start a seal-only version, you don't need our approval... just go do it... but I would suggest that the adventure/dual purpose forum is not the best spot for such a thing.

Ummm, so which is it? Do you want one or two variants, now I'm confused?

Mate you've got no idea, on several counts.

so was HTFU.

Lighten up, fellah, I was just replying in kind. Stop being a purse-carrying blouse-wearing nancy-boy. Almost all the tags so far have been on sealed roads. There's been nothing stopping you from grabbing a tag on the seal and placing it elsewhere on the seal, should you wish to play. Indeed this was mooted as likely to happen when the idea kicked off. No skin off our nose, as has been said, we bend both ways.

It's a Nike moment: Just do it.

Mate, the adventure 'arena' is one of the most inclusive in motorcycling-dom. We don't care what, how, when, where or why you ride, we'll take the piss regardless. But as soon as you say 'seal only' its like, nah, pass, not interested.

You go warewolf!

**Woodman** · 3rd June 2009, 22:09

What warewolf is saying is that you are more than welcome to play.

Most of the tag-o-ramas are limited to the seal. I wanted everyone to be involved and the tags to be anywhere.

Of the 7 so far only the last 2 tags have been off road.

I have to say that so far you guys have been mean to us who don't know where we are most of the time let alone having to actually FIND a place. Probably the only time I find one the battery on the camera will be flat

Chester just come & play with us

Hi team,
this might be a good time to introduce myself to the Nelson KB community.

I've been riding for a year & a bit now on a Suzuki A100, but I've just upgraded to a Honda GB250 (it was definitely time to ditch the 2-strokeyness!).
I've just discovered this thread, hopefully a nice easy road one will pop up so I can get in on the fun! (The GB doesn't like the gravel (or maybe it's me

- I took it up Dovedale hill last weekend as a bit of a detour, but I won't be doing that again, the back end was all over the place

)
