Okay team. Saturday just looks terrible with the storm front coming through, so I'm calling it early to push out until Saturday the 5th May.

100+ MR2OCNZ runs and counting... When going hard, good rubber's your best protection against unwanted accidents. Buy good tyres!
When you're nearing the end of the drag-strip and you have no 'chute, you may as well keep your foot to the floor... Live life. There ain't no second pass. :twisted:

How did things hold up last night Ross? The storm seemed a lot less severe than expected up here - did it pass by the BOP without causing chaos? :?:

As for me coming down, it's going to depend on finances from the looks. I didn't realise it was mortgage payment week... But Saturday 5th looks promising at the mo:

Hopefully will be some fine weather. Looks like Rotorua is a bit underwater this morning after the rain last night.

Went for a reconnaissance run last night over the proposed route around the back of Lake Rotiti. Good job I did, Found that there is a nasty section of 10kms of gravel road along Pongakawa Road, so I will make a few adjustments for Saturday. So for the Tauranga crew we can meet at BP Tauriko at 10.00am and everyone else we will see you at Okere falls Store at 11:00am.

Be good to get a feel for who's coming so please hola up a response if you can. Txt 0274506732 Cheers

The weather is gonna be brilliant -fine and sunny, so take the chance to blow off the cobwebs and get into some twistes!
