yoeddynz Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 I have been tinkering with the viva. Looking forwards to the drive down. I love the coast road and have yet to do it in the viva! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willdat? Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Hey Alex, little bro is pulling pin so I will probably need you to take down a sleeping bag/tent/bed roll/dry clothes if you've got space in the Viva? Quite happy to go self contained though as tent sounds like it could be an optional extra... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 No worries will. Hannah and I will be heading to Blenheim Friday night but you can always pop stuff around to my work when you finish work (that's like 3pm then eh- you easy life school teachers.....) As long as you turn up Felixx it doesn't matter what in. You still keen on diving for crays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willdat? Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 3? 3 pm is for suckers. Once the roll is done I'm off...I'm right into the key competencies, one of which is 'Managing self'.obvious troll, I was writing report comments until 10 pm tonight Ah yes, your work is miles closer than the Brook. Will plan what I'm taking/carrying and drop it off. These repeated frosty mornings have me a little nervous about getting the gear I carry right... edit: Also EvoBilly? He seems to have dropped off OS since Nats, did he buy one too many cars and his Mrs cracked? If someone has contact details, could give him a text?

anglia4 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Holy shitbags. I just opened a fucking massive can of worms Bolted the new bars onto my bike and they look ace! Broke 3 brittle old wires on the controls Have to sand some of the nice paint off my flash new bars cos its too thick and the throttle won't return Clutch cable, brake hose and all the control wiring is now way too long Should be sweet by the weekend though (except for everything being too long, it can just stay that way for a little while) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 I think billy used up all his 'get out of jail' tokens when he went to the nats. I'll text him though. I was hoping Sam might make it too but same again - no tokens left? Im hoping to get dave the Irish avenger along. He now has 5 avengers but none are on the road. So offered him a seat but will depend on if he is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Yep I'd be doing whatever to get a house with a 5 car shed. This will mean you'll have to buy more cars of course. Hopefully you can make it for the day at least. Go in convoy with us? Will- you can always meet up with us in Blenheim sat morning for a coffee break eh? We will have to stay in touch. Then you join convoy from Blenheim too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you join convoy from Blenheim too. Sounds good, I think you've got my number, but I don't have yours, I guess you're just playing hard to get... Has anyone suggested yet that will should come via the rainbow road? Only me, I have some contacts that mean a key would be possible even though it's been closed since Easter Monday. The only reason(s) I'm not are; - that a mechanical would be terrible, with no rev counter I'm not even 100% sure on how brutal I'm being (actually I know exactly how brutal I'm being, poor wee thing ) - You have to be self sufficient (tools and survival) to be granted access - Island saddle is 1350m and likely to be covered in snow this time of year - I'd have to rent a PLB - Not a lot of traffic on the road if I do come off... - It's not actually shorter than going round the coast AND I'm too young to die If it was still open i would be doing it through the Rainbow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
