    it is a farm ride in some pretty steep country, so yes there will be some jams, the 1st 15 odd km's is preetty easy so they field will be spread out, will depend on how much rain we get as well,

    probably doing this one now, a group of three of us. should be good, weather looks good
    Should be a good way to test out how far i can get off of one full tank, if you've seen it the tank it monstrous.
    I assume we go from the car park north to the port for lunch then back again, do we take the same track or a new one to come back
    we may just go where no ones been

    no its kinda more like this but bout 80ks normally a fuel stop 1/2 way to lunch break fill there if you need then onward to sand dunes for a muck around if your keen then up to shed for lunch and fuel down on to the beach from there and back round to the start (sounds a lot shorter than its is) ps there lot of wicked hill climbs you can have a go at if you want along the way.

    Hey Scott if it pisses down like this all the way till Sunday like they say it might.
    Is there any danger the ride will be cancelled due to us ripping up the farms to much or maybe the difficulty being to much for an average rider?

    it pissed down year before last (sure it was 07 maybe 08) and wasnt cancled
    had a small diversion on the road to get round a major hill climb tho.
