Nelson Rideouts - Where next?

[JATZ]

Is this mark 2 of the block ride?

Much as I like the Kaikoura coast and the Hundalees, I'll shoot through Molesworth instead

[NordieBoy]

Certainly. There may even be lil chocolate balls here for you. And a big plate full of fresh veges for Nordie - the ones with no meat on them!!

i'll be trying out the new jetting so my bike won't be fricking fast as usual.

I'll have you know, my beef burger this morning had onion, tomato and egg on it.

Egg is so a veggie.

[NordieBoy]

Well, not a lot happened...

Padmei lost his bike...


When he found it, it was fricking fast again...


I got lost...


Woody wanted to show off his clean bashplate...


I have more photos but probably not worth putting them up...



Also, a shock full of oil works wonders. They should come this way from the factory.

Great pics Nordie

Classic NADS ride

[Padmei]

You nailed it with those pics Nordie.
See how I kept Snotso under control all the way thru that manoevoure.
Pity I didn't catch Umopom dropping into that first ditch so he could have had his moment of fame.

Geez we do some fricking stupid things don't we??? ie. riding thru a thicket of gorse when there's a perfectly good gravel road running beside it

oh & BTW viewers Woodman actually saved that loopout! His bike pirouetted in the air & droppped perfectly down facing the way he came so he could try again. His leg was however trapped under the handlebar but that's just a mere technicality.

Did you get any others of the bike sucking gorge - or the 30ft gap jumps

[NordieBoy]

The cloud cover made the photos turn out quite well...

Click on a thumbnail and use the left/right cursor keys to navigate...

[madmartin]

[Padmei]

Nice. Good one of the TT too (that's TT too not TT2)

You'd better get your keyboard checked, I think the "0" key is sticking...

I read that as TT too, to ...nice pics Nordie

This was just after a nice wheelie. Look how compressed the forks are and where the fuel is

[Box'a'bits]

Also where his feet are...Well controlled then..

It's either stop there, or drop 8 feet into the hole the dirt came from.

[Padmei]

oowwww me nads

[umopom]

Yes I did remember and yes I know Reefton hasn't got a roundabout but it is time............................Saturday down via Old Sow and Sherry river then the Mackley to Denniston - overnight at the Nurses Home in Reefton - Sunday Nelson Creek and any other interesting bits in the area (haven't worked this out yet and will need help as usual) back before dark.

So those interested vote for your prefered weekend - 21/22 April or 28/29 April - or we could pick the first one and postpone to the second if the weather isn't right?

Talk to me..............JC
