    Hey thanks for the heads up MM.

    I think most of us can go through some loose gravel with no problems at all. There was a couple of Ks of fresh seal not far from Akaroa last week which no one seemed to have any bother with.
    And remember ...... if it hasn't got one of "Uncle Flip's" prosthetic kickers it isn't a real motorbike!!!

    Which "The Valley" were you talking about? I went to the logical one i.e. Heatcote and no one was there.

    Saw Pete heading into the Tunnel didn't think we were that late.

    I stopped at the Teddington Intersection and had a chat to Mr Triple, by that time you guys were long gone thought we would catch up with everyone at Heatcote pub but no one was there.

    I'm glad that you liked the summit road. It is challenging. I heard a whisper that Evans to Dyers section might be reopening soon. Yipeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

    True, rain would make it even MORE fun!

    I hopped back on Dyers Pass to get home, this track stops at the summit. I have yet to find a track to take me down the other side. Bridle path would still be shut I guess.

    Hop on your new DR and we'll go exploring ...
