1st time back out to Akatrawa since I broke a derailer, now batting 2 for 2

Was impressed that Jim was able to tow this pie muncher up the hill though

Thanks to Colin for organising what was a fun day out

yeah, thanks Colin!
Was good to get on the LT again for a proper ride.

Day of shuttles on the port hills=

Great day though!

Shuttles at onamalutu dh track heapsa fun, Awesome track especially the bottom section flowy as.

Friday: a quick lap of Makara Peak late in the day

Saturday: Makara Peak - topped up ma Possum bait stations out on Leaping Lizzard, Nikau is riding nice at the mo, a bit windy on Ridgeline after the previous days tranquil conditions. And then over to have a look at Carparts extension. It's lovely.

Sunday: out to Wainui. A couple of hours digging and a couple of hours riding.

Monday: into the Akatarawas.
Had a wee bounce down the Rockgarden

Then backtracked and at the a certain place headed into the jungle

Stopped for a bite to eat

Then headed down the little ridden trails that is Deadstag

Legs are toast, but am happiness fulled

...and it was damned fine, if a wee bit overgrown. Definitely the most ferns growing over a very narrow singletrack/cliff edge that I've had to deal with.

Broken today.

Broken yesterday. V slow pedal to work today.

Mmm. Every time I bent my legs last night a different muscle would cramp. Feeling good today though...

OK, it wasn't today but last Saturday. My Qtown options on mine and hers weekend away were shopping or riding so out I went. After some great service and advice from the geezer at Vertigo who couldn't have been more helpfull and a few Vorbite's I rode from town and did the Moke Lake/Lake Dispute circuit. 3 1/2 hours of bliss (throw in time for a bite and some photo's) and a pint of Pilsner at the Ale house to finish it couldn't have been better. You really earn the views with the 1st climb but it's worth it. The photo's are in order, doing the circuit anti-clockwise. w00t.

Secret andean singletrack..... as rubbish as it looks!!
