OK – I'm planning on coming to this event http://forum.bmwor.org.nz/index.php/topic,1000.0.html from Wellington via Turakina Valley – anyone else keen to come along. Also, when at the venue on Sat PM or Sun AM, I'd be keen to check out Fisher's Track if not too wet and the gravel road out to Retaruke & Whakahoro Any other GS enthusiasts up for this? Cheers Aslan

Hi StephenAfter much thought I will miss this one  🙁 The brother inlaw and I are going to do it next weekend and as he is based in Auckland we will be starting at the other end. I might be pushing my luck if I fail to mow the lawns two weekends in a row.On the plus side I have been giving a bit of thought to a weekend in Taranaki ride so will update you when its a bit further alongCheersColin  😀

Bad luck with the man flu mate, its a hell of a thing that wimins just dont understand  😀 As a thought if you still want to ride these roads you can hook in with us next weekend. I know its a long way to Pio Pio for you so if you want you can camp at my house friday night. Bring ya tent its a big back lawn, or you can have a bed inside if you would prefer. Have a think about it and let me knowCheerscolin
