    Oh God not another Grandpa we have to puree steak for...

    Yea jeans and shoes went after my first crash too, still rode like a dick though, till my next crash.

    1000km in the rain! Where on earth were you coming from?!
    Rest in peace Tony - you will be missed.

    I do still have teeth! They are made of wood though, so perhaps pureeing my steak would help?

    I said it "helped" me to learn not to ride like a dick - didn't entirely stop me either Neither did the next one but I'm getting better.

    And Chch to Auckland. Brrrrrrr

    Bother! Like Methane-Grandpa above, i just read the thread from the very beginning, after being quite excited about this ride for several days, only to find out its full.

    I don't neccessarily expect the royal exception treatment, as I realise the limits are in plave for good reasons, but if someone does have the misfortune to have to pull out, I would be most keen to join you, if I could be added to the ever-hopeful reserves list ...

    Cheers

    This is the ride that I mentioned to a few people that is happening up here, if anybody is keen to attend.

    The other 2 bikes I was going to bring along dont seem to be showing any interest whatsoever.
    I will consider them not interested and out, esp seeing as there are other people here and willing, and this isn't really fair to them.

    Don't scare the poor guy! He's probably wondering what he's got himself into now
