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

    you forgot to mention the gale force winds around the Ruimutukas

    We waited at Featherston for you for a bit (until the rain got nasty)

    What a great ride - we got to the foot of the 2nd bit of cnut - I had a trailwing on the back of the KLR and Mark had a bald TKC on the back of the A\T and Micheal had some girly piece of crap on the back of the DR350 - that is one NASTY NASTY hill (you should take your KTM Boulevard up there - we'll come and watch)

    woohoo - that is an awesome way to spend a day

    Pity you haven't got sound. You'd hear the sound of a man gnawing at his own liver.....So much for a work day. Mandy insisted on me being taxi to my neices birthday. Complete with ponies...
    IT'S JUST BETTER WHEN THERE'S TWINS INVOLVED..

    your 640 would have had np problems getting up the first part of cnut

    so - when are you next allowed out to play?

    btw there is a 2nd hot waitress

    oh and Michael walked a fair way up the bad bit of the hill and christened it 'The Scree of Despair' - very fitting

    you can see it at the top of the hill - the Everest of Adventure Rdiers

    One of those rides

    You know the sort of ride Im talking about - spur of the moment - calculated risks - a few thing almost go wrong...

    Not a huge story to tell, just gassed up after tea and shot over the Pram track from the Hutt, bit of a loop round Hydro valley, back over the Paekak hill. All alone - that was the best bit. Don't get me wrong - love riding with others, but adv riding alone, with real risks is always a rewarding experience. Hopefully someone out there knows what I'm babbling about. Ride was topped off nicely by Pink Floyd in the buds.

    Damn, real life starts again in the morning.

    Peace out
    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.

    Good on ya man. I quite like riding on my own also. I tend not to go anywhere too dangerous though. Had a few too many close calls.

    Pink Floyd is cool too, but some of those 18 minute long songs can get a bit much. Black Sabath for me.
    Showing off for the camera since ages ago

    How about Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells (25min + 23min) or Jethro Tull's Thick as a Brick (43mins).

    One song through the Maungatapu...
