Just put 8.11 litres of BP's finest in there this week actually..   not that it needed it.

Headed to Berm busters this Saturday for a shake down with a new recruit.   

That reminds me.. I'll have him fill out a form! 

Darryn F? He's just sent one through, legend

I've added the extra support strut for my rear cargo crate. Hopefully this will survive the first stretch of gravel on the first morning :huh: 

I also scored a sweet flag from marketplace

Put a safety strap around your neck, I mean nothing could go wrong!

Heya fellas, damn this one came up fast! 

Looks like a couple of us are keen to make the mission from gizzy again 

Last year was just too much fun

I'm I'm on the accomodation hunt now! The Tauranga crew have had one pull out so we are sorted everywhere except for 1 bed at Awakino, 

The lady there said there may be 1 room left that's got a empty single sooo putting it out there! Anyone got a space? 🙏

Yeah we've rented a house that's within staggering distance of the pub. Currently three of us booked in there but I believe there's heaps of rooms/beds.   How many do you need?   2?

Yea there's 2 of us but one can jump in with Daniel and the Tauranga boys 

So just 1 at this point

If there's a bed spare that would be awesome!

Not fussy, happy to chip in whatever it costs!

I'll give the landlord a call in the morning and see what she has to say, but if my rickety brain is working I think there's stacks of room.  

Will keep you posted. 

Nice work on the Monkey too. that thing looked a bit worse for wear after last year.

Mint, will be good to have you lads riding again! Can you put in some entry forms so we can keep track of numbers? https://forms.gle/NjHShDgP4b29B1VN8

I fished the CRM50 out of storage last night. Started on the second kick.

About to give it a last minute birthday:

  • Oil change
  • New chain
  • Whip the tire off and see if the rim is going to eat the tubes again
  • Try and fix the indicators

I forgot how speedy it is compared to the V50 and ST90 that I've been riding lately.

One of the NP lads is looking for a bed in Awakino saturday night if you've got one free? Rich who was on the RX100 from last year, aka Mr sparkplug...

Right, @Gyrocket  I've double checked with the land lady.. There's one spare bed available, bedding provided.  If anyone is desperate there is apparently a couch.  (I'd suggest bedding isn't supplied for the couch)    

In any case I'll lock you in for it.  Not 100% sure on cost but somewhere round $75 each.  

 

Apologies @richiesmith that puts us at capacity. 

In case you missed it though, the Awakino pub do (or did last year) offer a shuttle service to and from the Seaview Holiday Park and .. well anywhere locally if you arrange it, so that's an option if you find something a little further out. 

Seaview seemed to have plenty of little cabins but don't supply bedding.
