A is for Adventure - Thompsons Track attempt, Jan 4

[Eddieb]

You had better not be on call on Feb 14th/15th mate! Would be good to see what the hippo makes of the huge rock slide on Orongorongo!!!!!

14th is my birthday, I'm working on not being on call that weekend.

it would be boring

I've seen Eddie ride - Orongorongo won't present any problems for him -

Well thanks Mark, I'm blushing.

And keen to prove you wrong, it wouldn't be the first time you've pushed the G/S. Though if your BIG BIKE can make it through mine shouldn't be too bad.

although his bash plate would need rebuilding afterwards (again)

umm, yeah, well, you know, Anyone here handy with a welder and have some short lengths of steel?

I kinda went up this really muddy track on Mt Te Aroha you see, and there were some big rocks hidden in some of the deeper puddles and....and....

Yep, it's f**cked again. I really need to sort out some stronger mounts and better suspension.

Birthday celebrations on the South Coast ADV are in order then!

Yep agree with Mark, from what I saw of your technique when we all went round Red Rocks, I reckon you'll scoot your hippo over those rocks with finesse mate and be lovin the challenge of it!

This is the easy side from Matamata too! I'd hate to have seen what the other side was like.

Apparently, the Katikati side has puddles that will swallow a PD whole!
I would love to try it and will do soon, I will let you know...
