    shouldnt it be renamed to teh coast to grassy bit in the middle of island somewhere.

    It rained this morning but as forcast that blew over and it comeout dry all day. Hada good run from Himitangi to woodville and then a rapid run over the track. There just wasnt the bikes around there usually is.

    Then after everyone piked out (apart from those who never bothered showing up in the first place) went for a quite pootle out to the beach on my lonesome. Ive seen more bikes on my way to work on a wed arvo. It was all a bit of a nonevent really. At least BR come out to talk to me at the beach.

    Glad I wasn't in any of those photos, with that description.

    As everyone else has said, Wet to start with, then the wind from shannon to woodville was a pain to say the least. But a good cause all the same, had to do some part of it. Good on you, those who braved the whole thing.

    Pleased Monie and i showed up to go, we nearly didnt, but its a good cause and i thought we needed to support it
    It was a quiet run to Woodville with a lot less bikes than previous years, i think the weather had something to do with that. Had to pull out at Woodville. First time we have done just part of it. We went car hunting in the afternoon for Monie after she wrote her last one off during the week Just her pride was hurt thankfully. Mission accomplished and we found her new wheels, not allowed to tell you what i brought for her, lets just say it reflects her personality well. Ill post a picture of it when we get it later in the week
    A good day in the end, hopefully not so many things to do next year and a realy fine day to enjoy the c2c

    Nah, I need to hit a familiar road to test this suspension. I'll probably do the Track this afternoon after visiting my brother.
