I see that got you out of the woodwork on here ,,,,,, :laugh:Looks like you guys had a much colder start then we did to Wisemans on sunday (what a difference 2 hrs make) :whistle:
You covered some big ks there too mate,,,, was that the Lost City in some of your pics?? I saw it once on a ride to Hill End a few yrs back with OBT,,,, would like to check it out close one day

July 13, 2011 at 12:40 am #204797Yes Beecroft first and then Angus Place trail by the time we got to the rocks

July 13, 2011 at 9:28 pm #204805So we found some sun for Kat to thaw out, she needs different gloves and maybe heated grips, a screen
There’s no maybe TB, they’re a MUST for enjoyable riding in winter.
Have a look at Torpedo7.com to get some

Keep in touch, we’ll organise a day out (or two or three) sometime soonish.

Or from Sutto’s they will do a price for a Old Bull and it keeps our money in the country not NZ

July 13, 2011 at 10:41 pm #204842That sounds like the way to go
July 14, 2011 at 12:59 am #204843Had a great time on my first OBT ride. Great bunch of guy’s and awesome trails which i never knew i had in my backyard.
Thanks for making me feel welcome Eag’s and organising this ride. Now i have to get the bike ready for the next ride. New mirror, comfier seat and bar risers should do it. Cheers :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
July 14, 2011 at 1:04 am #204860Just get one of those Airhawk seats for the longer rides, I spend 12 hrs in the saddle and don’t need to stand up.

Was great to meet you Deano, the Kato is a nice looking setup mate. Airhawks are a good bit of kit for sure but I noted that Mickp has stopped using his and got a different seat and is happy with it. Could be worth a look as another option, maybe Mickp can tell you what the seat he got is.
Will catch up on another ride soon

Yeah i saw Mickp’s seat. It is from Seat Concepts and they make a tall seat for my bike for $200US delivered. Could be the way to go.
