Bottom of the North Tag-O-Rama

[Paladin]

if you mate is still getting used to the big off road,,there a heavy bike.
and southerlands can catch the best off us at times....
ill have a little think mate...

Phil will be ok on anything we do mate. He HAS ridden offroad before, just not recently, and he looks well comfortable on the Big; I certainly wasn't keeping up with him once he got the feel of the bike!

I actually think Phil would find Sutherlands a total blast, but he'll love any of that stuff in the 'Rapa either way, just being out in the middle of nowhere with us lot!

eddie was keen to do tootle round the coast to the gate from my side.
down at ocean beach. i think barry was keen to come over this weekend as well.
see what the weather is like, aye mate.

You should probably take this over to the welly or rapa ride out threads.

I'm itching to do Sutherlands again but am not going to be able to join you this weekend. Dads coming down to put the capping on my retaining wall.

After yesterday's trip I wanted to avoid all greasy clay so I went to the beach.
So follow the coastal track and you will see this structure from a long way off. You will have to cross some beach to get close enough for a photo. But don't be tempted to continue going to the sign on the next point, because the sand is very, very soft.
Amazingly I had previously been thru & returned using a Tourance.

Nice one.

You don't have much luck do you Andy.

[andy mac]

The plan is my bike skills will improve if I keep challenging myself. Six months ago Paladin & I went thru the soft sand & swore never to try again. Obviously any skill or long term memory has deserted me.

any interest in doing Toppys/sutherlands on 15th or 16th Aug?

maybe you should put the Tourance back on

If I recall - you were pretty well unstoppable with that poxy piece of rubber fitted

Yep, I'll mark it in the calendar.

Just imagine how he'd go with slicks on. Probably embarrass the hell out of us whoosies with our knobs.

This tag is still up for grabs, but the quarry gate is locked on Sundays.

any clues, need to get this tag rolling.

[Eddieb]

You'd need to fit some good knobblies and would probably want to remove the fairing on your ZX-10 to get it.

I know where it is - just need ride time to get there....

This tag has gone stale after 2 months so last night I took the Yammy Supertrail for a ride to (near) Karori Rock lighthouse. Apologies for the cellphone photos but have dragged the tag back closer to civilisation, now it's only 10 minutes from the carpark. A lunchtime excursion anyone?
