Gorge, Ballance, Mangamarie, Pahiatua for a drink, back via Track. Great route.

Excellent ride tonight, really enjoyed the Buell and pillioning Monamie

Bit breezy, but that's NZ spring weather for you. It'll settle down in a month or two before picking up again. Good to see Leonie dealing with the ER6 in the wind, gotta be done

They're in the "consultation" phase at the moment. Needs to be passed into law in Feb to come into effect in June or July IIRC

still up in the air - best guess is, they won't increase it as much as they first intended, but it will still be pretty painful

i don't think it will come into effect for several months tho so you should be right

Yep they say we'll increase by $500,then renege and up it by $300 and slowly increase thinking we're all happy people paying it.
