    Thanks (in anticipation, but the thought counts too!) flick me a PM if it works out.

    And a bit of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1Hv04IQes8

    Climintie has a great pic from a lookout similar, that gives a view over the whole of Muriwai and South head.

    You will be fine. I took a complete novice on a training ride (no not Chop!!) while we marked some of the track Sunday. He made it OK and the last trail bike he road was a AJS back when Adam played half back for the Isrealites.

    That track looks great and will be nice to be riding without a massive cloud of dust for a change! Look forward to getting out there on Sunday. Now just to organise the troops.

    I would have asumed straight after you have signed on

    shit this is the same day as the ardmore schoolboy mx. pity would have liked to do this missed the last one too.
    Getting back into it now the boating season is just about over !

    You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
    And now a third thing a bloody big gun to shoot theives with!

    Was lucky enough to ride the 55k loop today! Wow! It definitely is a bit of everything, including a big uphill before you see this amazing view! Awesome riding, did take me a while to get around the loop, probably a couple of hours!!!! The rain sure helped the woops and there's heaps of fast riding, for those that go fast, there was also a lot of tight bits around the trees! Tomorrow it will be mint, there's been a bit more rain and it peed down while we were out there! Farm loop is awesome and it's been graded, so the uphills are cool!!!
