136km from home to Devil's Boots Rd.
11.5km of goldfields.
136km back...

I'd rather head off one morning for that one.

Good call.I think it would be a better small bike ride too.

Ok what say we get Eddie Dr-ed up & do some more exploring Northwise. Give Steep road a nudge again

Any other Nads keen? Will- I'll take a tow rope...

I'd be up for an afternoon ride - prefer easterly direction since there's a lot less tarseal.

As long as you don't kill me, remember I'll be on an unfamiliar bike.

No bigbike ride. The biggest you've got.

**Fluffy Cat** · 19th February 2011, 07:19

Biggest I have at the moment is.....rummaging around..........450 with 8l tank and a bit of gorse in it to improve the mileage sorry meant kage???. Nothing else is available at the mo. So will bug out if ride involves long 100kph sections....to much head shake makes me dizzy

i live here in nelson and am looking to join in with some people to go on some rides
if youve seen or been on the dusty butt this year im the semi famous:

i guess im good at hangin onto the bike no matter what
son of alane if youve met him as well

i rode down the mangatapu the other day as far as the downhill washout with the blue cable exposed and was wonderin how much further you can go

a new journey or road would be great thanks
