Makara. Nikau Valley, Ridgleline, Zac's, Varley's - and a whole lot in between. WOOT!

I done Deliverence, Salvation twice and ScoutHall.

Many thanks to Monolith for coaching me thru the stuff that I could not do before!

Bike is now clean, however there is dried mud scattered throughout my place

Spent Friday/Saturday riding in Rotorua. God I love those trails. New jump trail called HUCKleberry Hound is minta, bit squishy now but will be ace in summer!

After 3 weeks of not having an XCish bike I finally got fed up enough to fix the missus's Hardrock (which incidentally, she'd been bugging me to do for about 2 months ) and went on a mission.

Up Rapaki, round the traverse and thompsons to sign of the kiwi, then down the botttom bit of Flying Nun and Old Dyers Pass rd.

I hate that bike. Crappy brakes and forks at high speed on unfamiliar trails is a bit of an eye opener! Tottaly spoilt for having so much sweet singletrack right out the back door though. We're SO buying a house somewhere round here.

Got a few shuttles in today.Excellent!
Just managed to sqeeze five decent size bikes on the rack.
Still haven't found one that dosen't fit,allthough the GT was a mission.

Wheres that then?

Ya, I went to Makara carpark, hammered some signs, bottom of trickles, hammered a sign, to the Karori sports club cafe for a hot chocie, then up to to of Makara Rd via a quick stop at Sifters for a loan of some shorts, to hammer some more signs, then to St albans shed to hamer more signs, and stash the bike and then walk up and down St Albnas and allington rd with a letterbox drop, then back to the cafe for another hot choccie and bacon and eggs. then met Noodles and up Koru, sally's, missing link, leaping lizard to the bottom, up Possum, down Nikau, missing, aratehi, zacs, varleys, wahine and back to st albans to grab bag, and the to the shower. I done got muddy

I went and xc "raced" at our local club winter series, race was out at Santoft forrest , course was awesome, riding was good, I went OK I guess, still got smoked by the old guys and juniors, but had a ball

I rode a couple of laps at Haven and indulged in a cracker view or three and contemplated the work of the latest dig day that allowed me this freedom

how far did you get built along the top track in the end?

Went for a ride at makara with the wife this morning

just a lower loop, but always good to get out with such fine company

After that, headed up wrights hill for some deliverance loving with mr. Racer. Once down there, before hooking up with Vert and Ekman_rider for another couple of runs down deliverance. Then it was a couple of runs down scout hall, before heading over to Mt Vic for another 2 runs to finish the day off.

Left home at 10:30, home at 5:30 - muddy, fuxx0red, and happy

rode signal hill today for the first time, it was awesome,esp in the mud!

Up and down the street a couple of times.
