    I went for a quick 150km ride this morn, from Nelson , Wakefield, Pigeon Valley, Dovedale Rd then up Mt Arthur and back. The gravel on Dovedale Rd is quite dry and dusty, but Mt Arthur (Flora Saddle) is sweet, hard packed, with just some minor sections of corrugations.
    I'm just amping for the 3rd!

    Would an ex adv rider be welcome at this shin dig, or would he get stoned and ridiculed I'm heading up to NN on the Duc on the 1st to watch the street racing on the 2nd and then heading home on the 3rd and it would be great to catch with you all while I'm there.

    WW are you still at the same address you were at when I last saw you?

    By all means join in. There will be a few partners & other local non-adv riders there. Yes, still same place.

    Even current adv riders get stoned & ridiculed, why should you be any different?
    Cheers,
    Colin

    There's a wagon available (The Jatz'zzzz Safari) but my brother is out of cell range at the moment so I'm trying to see if he's going to be back in time.
