Awesome ride! Minimal carnage and maximum fun!
Gotta love watching the Wee-Strom drifting in the gravel!

Yep, nice, good day out.
Some photos... First 5 at the start, then 1 at Amberley where the Adventures split off.

Last photos are at the Hurunui for lunch.
The last photo is just some of us outside, many more inside etc out of frame.

Good ride, well organised and good company ....... but the chips were crap at the pub...

Bring on the next one, not sure if the poor bastard who came off his bike at the roundabout had much of an afternoon though ......

good stuff - yep, was good watching the people that knew what they were doing in the shingle / clay - another 3274 rides like that following the pros, I might raise a rooster or two myself!

That looks an a lot like my old S10 in pics 3 and 4 TA. I know it is back in Chch. Do you know who is riding it?

Cheers R

I was thinking it could well have been your old S10 but no I can not remember who was riding it. Would take half a dozen or more rides with him to start remembering... memory for names and faces is indeed that bad.
