I will put in a great big day tomorrow and play it by ear....
It would be a shame to miss this as I have a new toy to show the boys....
And the clue is NZ Funniest Home...Vids....

Trouble is, all of my broadband is used up, so I can't show anyone anyway till next month.... but it will keep.

See you guys at Ashhurst at about 10.30. Wrap up warm. It's a bit cool up this way. Overcast but the road is drying out. Supposed to fine up during the day.

Home safe. Awesome weekend. Weather was stunning.

Cheers Mark for another smashing 42/Fishers/Wanga ride.

Great weather, THE best riding and good people.

Special thanks to to Phil for the Sunday loop thru the farms, thanks for the effort

Shame about the bike failure Mark, did you get thru the 42nd Monday?

Will let the pics do the talking. Quite a few to put up (everyone likes to see themselves on the web

) so will do so over the next few hours/days!

Had to resize for KB regs so anyone want a bigger file PM me.

Last month when we did the 1st run the river was much higher & had to walk the bike across and MXNUT & I both fell in while aiding others across. This time was much shallower and we were all able to ride it with just the odd wobble

1. Andy heads in
2. Body language.....
3. Michael
4 & 5 1st Bart then Mark finding the deeper water (marks pic a bit blurry as bow wave tsunami heading my way

6. This part last month was all under water.......
