Yeah today's check list.

 

Wide open throttle runs to kihikihi to buy wet weathers, check.

 

Will use plastic bags in my shoes I think.

 

 

 

Typical top of the page. So here's a photo from the day.

Hey @johnnyfive.

What's the go on Friday? What's the leaving time etc?

ute has dogbox but bringing a fridge for the eats and also little compressor. 

still haven't bothered to ring hick bay Lodge so might be sleeping in my ute 

[johnnyfive]

Excellent question! 

I'll try get an email out in the next couple days. 

It'll be a pretty easy day on the Friday so there's not a massive rush to get away. Someone asked me and I forget what I said, probably something like, aim for 8:30 leaving, realistically 9:30

[johnnyfive]

I feel like someone asked to stay here the night before but I've lost track, did I promise a bed to anyone?

Spot on (it was me who asked) so you're not going entirely crazy.

I was referring to kickoff time, not a bed haha. Maybe you are going crazy....3 days on a small bike will fix that

It was I that asked for a bed/couch space as well as doozi.

 

We'll bring our own sleeping bags and pillows to make life a bit easier.

Mint!

Did I spot a @Beaver commuting to work on a small bike this morning?

[Beaver]

Probably? I was on the hog so unless some other punisher is out there on an (AD)v50 it would have been me

[HighLUX]

Looked and sounded like a Lifan powered v50

[Beaver]

Mines 100% 50cc officer. Factory. Can't you see the Yamaha sticker on the engine case.

I think I'm ready to go.

There was a brief moment of panic where I thought I'd be riding something else this year.

But fingers crossed, and test ride pending, this seems to be ready to go.

Good volumes of 2 stroke being burned this year. Nice

Make sure your nuts are hanging off the right side of the seat to balance that fuel

I get the impression she's gonna be a moist one Saturday. Might be quite snug dressed up in the rubbers.

[TimShadboltfan27]

Looking wetter than an otter's pocket all weekend i think. 

Hey anyone got spare accom or looking for a handsome man to sleep on their floor ? Camping seems less appealing after seeing forecast
