HighLUX Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Heck ok VG has kinda peer pressured me into possibly coming along for this mission either riding a borrowed hog or in the support team Nothings 100% but will be in contact with friends tonight who have a lush bach at Hicks Bay that could be used for Friday night lodgings if its available. Sleeps 8ish in beds with a couple of double bed setups plus couches room for pop tent hammocks under trees etc, would only be a very small Koha to use for the night too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighLUX Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Just looked at the map again and realised that we wont be going via the gorge but braving the badlands of the Motu Rd. Exciting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Grumble Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Yeh, right from the start we decided to avoid the gorge, not keen on become truck squeezed meat jam.The route should have very minimal traffic most of the way round, and maximal sights and adventures. AUDIBLY FROTHING BUNGUS 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyWithAviators Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Bung fizzing up here too. Picked up this fine specimen over the weekend, plenty of time to get it ready for the ride. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyfive Posted September 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 Nice, I did see that appear and disappear on the tard pretty quickly I've been meaning to make a bit of an update, but haven't really got anything to report at this stage. All is still looking good, might try and get a better list of confirmed attendees shortly also, and update the first post a bit. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
