    Hey fellas, I've just moved back to Wellington (well Trentham more precisely) where I'll be working from Monday through Fridays for the forseeable future. Got the Africa with me as my wheels. If anyone's heading out for an after-work ride then sing out and I can meet up with you. My internet connection is via mobile phone so won't be on here that often, but my number is 021 650565 if you want to text or call or whatever. I may be here some weekends depending on work and all that but largely I'll be heading back to the wife and kids in Blenheim on Fri arvos. Look forward to meeting and riding with some of you.

    Cheers, Matt
    There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won't. We should come home from our adventures having faced their perils and uncertainties, endured their discomfort and beaten the odds, with a sly acknowledgment and revitalised solidarity of character.

    Hey Buggs

    Once the weather clears up an evening ride out to red rocks could be a goer.

    I'm in Lower Hutt so if you are getting bored in an evening it's only about 20 minutes away.

    There's a few other thing that can be done as well, maybe even to the summit of Odlins road once the evenings get a bit later.

    Yo, that all sounds good. Got me dualsport tyres on so most things should be doable... might take you up on that offer Eddie - I'll bring a couple of ales and I'll get your thoughts on my clunky upchange on the RD04.

    Sorry Joe, no guns for you, but I do have a great vid of my boy operating a kids digger - working hydraulics and all that - you'd be proud!

    Dave, hope you heal up soon mate and we'll get you back on that DR for a bit of torque action!

    Cheers, Buggs

    Hey guys, just wondering where "Odlins road" is. Is that the track that starts mid-way down the Akatarawa road, or is that the track from Karapoti??

    It starts directly across the road from the carpark at the summit of Akatarawa road.

    Moonshine Trail Ride 25/10

    Glen and I are going to the Moonshine organized trial ride on Sunday.

    I believe Michael (Pampara) and Andy_Mac may well be there as well.

    If you like slippery clay and tight single track its great fun

    Yes - it is my plan to be there. Will ride in on my own wheels rather than van it - hopefully the bike remains rideable at the end of a loop or two.

    This ride was one of the first I took the Pampera on when I first bought it back in 2003. I remember it being very gnarly (it was the previous day's National Enduro Course) and I was really pleased with the bike purchase choice I had just made.

    Sh*t doesn't just "happen". There is always an a*sehole involved.
