Yeah did that for you already last night here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=72456 and I said that a few posts back - you must still be coming down like you said on the other thread you started. I've already thanked you on my thread too, but again thank you Mr 4skins.

Yeah was good to see your man again - was wondering when we'll have another THAT ride - oh and no he didn't get any prizes for being a cheapskate this year.

There must have been about 7,000 of these things that roared past our place on Saturday morning. Wait for the letters of complaint from the non-biker set.

All with riders with ear to ear grins

(They hadn't got to the challenge sections by then!)

How come you weren't calling us in for hot fruit scones and coffee because we didn't get any morning tea on the ride?

The event was limited to 200 I believe. Many of the tracks were through Council and Regional Council parks which are normally off limits to motorbikes (well done to John F for getting the approvals). It was quite amusing riding past "NO MOTORBIKE" signs and seeing the look on the faces of the few poor sods who thought they were out for a quiet stroll through the park walkways.

How furiously does somebody have to waggle their privates on a Saturday morning to attract the attention of passing ADV riders? Or were you perhaps referring to some other sort of steaming hot buns?
