Thats the cord I use to tie up the ol'fella. If I don't use that the 'equipment' gets bruised by my knees.

Now that everyone has beaten the crap out of how big a picture can be- is there an answer on whether you still need a key?? I'm going up there this weekend if the weather holds.

Lucky bastard

I want to go again

No you don't need a key until the end of the month. After that you will.

It will cost you $10

You got to watch those deviants - especially the Scrambler mounted ones from the Waikato!

Unfortunately I have only done around 30kms on the KTM so far this year. I am off overseas for the whole of April but current plans are to get down to Rainbow and Molesworth at year end.

The manage attachments thingy says 768kb max for jpg's?

Edit: Ah, attached vs embeddedded...

when you get near the north end (close to the ski field road) if you have time explore all the side tracks down near the river - we wasted and hour or two doing that. Also turn left onto hiway 63 and then a km or so later turn right onto tophouse rd - its 5-10 km of gravel and quite scenic. Stop at the Tophouse homestead and have a beer at the oldest bar in the country (or something like that)

On the Tophouse Rd you can turn off at Kikiwa and either follow the river or turn right at Golden Downs and shoot off up there. You come out near Wakefield. Somewhere on that road is my Cortina muffler that I 'lost' being too young and stupid.

Great photos alright! Wish i was there!

Does not matter how much i hit my camera onto my keyboard i cant embed photos in any of my posts........

How photos are attached to posts does not worry me at all!
As long as i get to see them! Nothing worse than just getting a pesky white box with a red X in it!
