Yeah I could be up for that, see how many others are interested. Maybe we could get some type of mobbing going with a morning Oropi ride and an afternoon at Summerhill to finish up with BBQ etc at the big Mongolian gurr thingy that has been made up there. Anyone?

Hey Chris.

Yeah Im keen to meet up with some of the mtb folk around the bay. See how many people are up for it . . . the more the merrier.

Might go for a longer haul through Oropi and Pyes Pa Roads afterwards if your keen for this too.

Also Im keen for mtb missions to the redwoods and watching the world champs in August if anyone is interested.

Cheers

dont know what bike i will be on by next weekend, depends if the front wheel gets fixed for my AC (really means if i can afford to get a new rim Sad ). may have to borrow my brothers bike for the day and i dont think the single speed is in a fit state to be riden with much reliability just now either

so sounds like a 10 - 10.30 meet at the carpark, and how about followed by tea and scones* at the cafe at Oropi hot pools?


*or maybe hot chips and coffee?
