    Thought you'd be a cert for the gravel hillclimb!
    You grew up on those roads, faster than most even with a bald back tyre too...

    Beach racing does sound cool though aye!
    Could this be the forming of the ADV beach racing team...

    ...stay tuned

    Does anyone know if you can change a thread title? Or I may start a new one with a better title than the one I mistyped at work...

    It'd be the Northern Sub-Branch of the ADV Beach Racing Team...

    I normally race with number "X" but that was already taken so they suggested "F" as that's the first letter of my name.
    It's actually fNordieBoy but the F is silent. And invisible.

    We were Team NADS.
    Secret handshake and must be over this tall to enter.

    But we let Warewolf in anyway 'cause he bought the tarp.
    He almost disgraced us by being fast but fell off on camera a few times to our relief.

    What with falling off, running out of fuel and being late for starts, I think we exceeded our expectations significantly

    I also got a standing ovation from my fellow racers when I crossed the line during the last XC

    Should be good at beachracing then - I've done a bit of that too...

    looks like a great day was had by all!
    I'm just waiting for MOMMC to get back to me with the final details - I dont think they know yet! - Then I'll start a new thread with a proper title and get the Northern NADS together for an attack on the grey sky and brown sea of Waitarere beach on a winters day...

    NADS stands for...?

    Funny thing is I think I'd shit myself more on the KLX than on the KLR. At least the KLR had a bit of mass to stop the head shake - The KLX I reckon would be a scary bike to get up really fast.

    I amy even enter with the GS next year to give you guys a head start (like the first straight)

    The XR was more stable than the DR.

    The GS on soft sand may be more excitment than you are able to handle... Make sure you tuck your trou into your boots. Containment you understand.
    IT'S JUST BETTER WHEN THERE'S TWINS INVOLVED..
    My GS build thread is here
    My ride photos are here

    Can't be worse than a K100, CR580 or YZ350.

    Still waiting for Manawatu Orion to get back to me...
    I have been told that my email has been forwarded to "someone who can help" That was 2 days ago...
    As soon as I get more info I'll let you know.
    Will ask around at the last rd of VMX on sat, someone there might know...

    Thought that if you were the N.A.D.S., we could be the:-
    Kapiti and
    NOrth
    Beachracing
    Squad.

    So that spells, K.No.B.S - yep, looks fine to me
