    Oh you went right at the Y and cane right out at the Haul loader. I thought you had gone down 10 steps, would have known if you had :laugh:

    Good tracks out there I love riding out there, found a new track and run for our return from Camerons actually that is exciting

    So 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 :)

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

    Had 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:

    Just 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
