Wellington Rideouts - Where next?

**Box'a'bits** · 29th July 2011, 20:33

And where would you like to go? Weather forecasts are looking fine (saturday not so great).

Need to get out again.

**buggsubique** · 29th July 2011, 20:50

Prolly not me sorry mate, got no front brakepads at the mo and need to do the calipers so I think it's maintenance weekend for me.

Akatarawas are a bit fresh from 4wds - need good tyres if going thru pram track, and some small trees also down earlier in the week - enough to f*ck with a motorbike and too big to move alone...

I've still got a puddle of oil under my bike, so I guess that counts me out.

And I think I've got to freaking work......grrrrrrr

What about Odlins Rd, it's an all weather track?

Meh.. still haven't ridden that, but was thinking of a longer ride..something further afield.

**andy mac** · 29th July 2011, 22:17

OK but that is a longer ride for me

The Akas are closer and muddier

I'm probably heading over the Hill Sunday, possibly to ocean beach.

sounds like it could be fun.

What do you think Steve?

I won't be able to confirm until this evening as I have to get a heap of stuff done today in order to have tomorrow free.

Especially when you consider that this is Wellington, which isn't exactly flat.

I will have a pillion also so will be cruising.

**Box'a'bits** · 30th July 2011, 10:38

Sounds good to me. Say 9.00am at the Caltex Rimutakas?

cruising is all a DR650 can do anyway (unless that prick Bart is riding it)

we certainly did that

what awesome weather - Ocean Beach in the morning, Lunch at the Lake Ferry pub with a wander east down the beach to Whangaimoana

KLR proved it really is a tractor by draging a dead beemer out of the lumpy shite back to Lake Ferry where it was parked up.

thanks Steve/Eddie - A top day
