I managed to fit in one of those I wasn't expecting to ride today rides :D

Only hit the Wainui Hill, Spoonhill, Jungles and back down Wainui Hill, but my legs didn't hurt one bit after yesterdays 150km road rd which included Monnshine, Paekak & Akatawa hills :thumbsup:

New Forks are MINT!!, need to put a little bit more air in the bottom out chamber for the DH track, but otherwise, light, stiff and plush :thumbsup:

I went for a cruise along the foreshore and then up the Huitoki where I found an awesome loop of singletrack amongst native bush. Got back into town to discover my rear Q/R had given up the ghost and I had to walk back to the car (marked yellow) :angry:

I was hoping it would be a little bit harder, but the wind up to Wainui just about killed me anyway. My speedo told me 82Km, but in reality, it was easier than a lap of Karapoti.

A few more challenges planned for the next few days!

You can go up to the lighthouse and then head down to the first lake. Just before the lake there is a turnoff that lets you go round the lake and then over the hill between the lakes (it even has a nice bit of single track and a board walk) would add maybe 5-10km and a few < 100m hills to the trip.

It's really frustrating to go ride down a bit of track you crashed on badly enough to keep you off the bike for >a month, and think how the fuck did I crash there, that piece of track is so easy, I'm such a manus.





Mt Vic is nice today. Very dry. Not too many tards walking all over it. Guess they're off at the 7's. Lulz at the new ski-jump thing just down from the summit

Grouse ride with Bugle and Mr X - up Salvation, down Deliverance, up Koru-Snakecharmer to the summit, then down T3, Varleys and Wahine. Very cool indeed... :thumbsup:
