2024 McKenzie Moped Melee, March 1-4 2024. Entry form now live!.
RUNAMUCK replied to RUNAMUCK's topic in South Island Region
There is sure to be quite the team from chch heading down. So bikes could be tailored no problem. It's probably only a 3.5 hour small bike pest to the start point for any maniacs that addicted to misery. -

I dont remember saying that. I do remember you professing that "I'm going to get a smaller bike for next year".... -

Put some knobblys on the Hornet! Same ride on Sunday a guy had a CBR250 on road tyres. He dropped it like 9 times in the mud. -

I was talking to a guy on a ride on Sunday who reckoned going up the rock steps on small bikes would be easier than going down them. (Hes been down them) -
I have little to add, except that quite some years ago there was an EF9(?) Civic on trademe with a 13b bridgey. It ran a fwd 5 speed from a Camry.

I'm just the spokesperson. @Mof completed this ride solo in three days at easter past. So its doable? -
You'll never find a smoother rotating rottisarie.

Typically the ride had been named after where it rides on day 1. Molesworth Marlborough Maruia McKenzie Eventually we'll run out of places starting with "M". But we'll burn the bridge when we come to it. -

Get amongst! -
Enter here: https://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/pJKCz7d8D8O4ZN Although the end of the pesting season is fast approaching, the fizz is still strong. So save the date, and start readying yourself (and your machine) for the Most Ambitious moped melee yet! 2024 will see us starting and finishing in Fairlie. With four massive days riding. Featuring both mindblowing scenery, and some grueling "trails". The total distance for this ride is 968kms over the four days. And Although this is a ride for small bikes, we're asking riders bring bikes capable of a sustained 70-75+kph. (Where the road surface permits) we have such a great distance to cover each day, that a bike that only does 60 is going to slow the pack down too much. you have almost 11 months to sort your bikes. Make sure your chains and sprockets are good. That you engine runs strong and reliably. Theres either a fuel filter, or no shit in your tank. You're going to need a spare clutch/brake lever. Tools to fix a puncture. A spare tube. The maps will be posted up shortly. LETS RIDE BIKES!

A Lifan swapped CT is good for 90+. -

I dont want this to become a ride for "big bikes" But the back up guys dont want to be stuck behind super slow bikes. 90-185cc is the target range. -

We have almost 11 months for everyone to get their machines running tip top. A dead bike is a dead bike. (It happens) but riding all the way to the end is heaps more fun than sitting in a back up vehicle with your bike on a trailer. -

The other CT wasnt running right. The back up vehicles expressed frustration at being stuck doing 60 on a 100kph road. (Which is understandable) This years ride is nearly 1000kms. The back up vehicles have to be the last across the line. (Because anyone can break down at any time, and cell coverage isnt relaible) but the guys driving back up wanna get where we're going, and have a beer too. -

A good CT can do 75. Hell the monkeys can do 75 cant they? -
The old boy got given a full kit of older dewalt gear. The batteries were chooched. (NiCad lyfe) he found an adapter on Aliexpress to plug his dewalt Li batter's into them. They seem to got quite well. The skill saw is mint.

Theres a young stunt rider here with a very tidy pale blue gn125. He spends more time on one wheel than two. Tbh, I kept expecting him to eat shit. But he seems to be able to handle a bike. (Far far better than me) -
