    Otherwise wait till I get back from Ausie in a few weeks as DR should be up and running and we can really give the dunes a bash

    Ps, am generally a church mouse on Sundays

    KTM? I've got a KLR650. How bad can this sand be?

    See you at 8:15 a.m. at the Kumeu BP. I'll need to get back to Auckland before 12:00 so I am just looking to cruise over to Rimmers Road, zip down the beach and get a long black at the Muriwai Cafe. What could possibly go wrong with a plan like that....
    Shit doesn't just happen; there's usually an arsehole involved.

    You shall see (non agressive tires and 200kg bikes up soft sand inclines )

    No probs for time as have to be in Silverdale early arvo and can usually leave home at 730 and be home again by 12 running the full lenght of beach plus stops

    Oops just realized another ride group are meeting at Kumeu BP at 8:30 and they usually get there early, (cant do that ride myself as they wouldn't be back till 5 ish) so suggest we re-locate to Muriwai Gas station at 8:15 (on the right on cnr of Muriwai rd and highway 16) also low tide is at 8:20 so that would put us closer to beach by a bit

    PS, run down beach from Rimmers will take about 20min as is only about 14km (measured other day) we would have time to head up beach to South Head and back down if you wish (80kms) and still be at Murawai cafe by about 10:30 even if we muck around a bit (could grab coffee at gas station to keep you going till then)





    What ya all think ?

    Okay. Muriwai Gas station at 8:15. (I see that I quoted Sunday's low tide time instead of Saturday's.)

    Cheers

    I'd need better rubber for a beach run, I'll stay home and save the gas money for the next gravel ride.

    I am sure that my attitude towards sand will not be the same after tomorrow...
