Yes, looks like it. We should arrange a hub ride out at Woodhill sometime. Would be really good to meet some of the NZ based hubbers.

 

I'm in. Will need to dust the cobwebs off my bike.

Ok, I have a confession to make.

 

Its been a year since i took my MTB out on a trail.

 

Perhaps we have just been so busy with exploring and getting caught up in life.

 

I would also like to jump back in. I am keen to also explore the Maraetai area as its a bit closer to home.

 

If Hayley Earth is riding, i might need an EBIKE to keep up. Anyone wanna lend me one?

Wayne, wrong time of year for Maraetai exploring. Its clay-based and slippery as hell through winter. Also, hills, much bigger ones than Woodhill.

 

And +1 on the ebike. I haven't touched my bike since about January I think. Hayley is on another level, so perhaps she can provide a pushing service for the back-markers.

Scandalous :eek:  :whistling:

 

I'll race you for the last place!

 

Will be good to have a nice relaxed ride Wayne. Agreeing on that before the ride will save our ego's when Hayley goes flying :nuke:   past on lap 2.

I've also been lazy for a few months, 20 minutes on the rollers last night got me restarted. WP good question, I will come up for that Hub ride, I do like Woodhill and it will be great to see the likes of you, Canfan, Niterider and of course my good mate DawieO for a bit of a pedal, and to meet the new additions to the Kiwi contingent. So I'll watch for the scheduling.

And yep, I also have actual cobwebs on my MTB. Poor form I tell you.

Ah you guys are talking nonsense!

This weekend I realized again how much I suck and how unfit I am (I HATE HILLS!!)!

 

Woodhill ride will be good with you guys! I'm in!

 

 

Edit: I was in Rotorua (again) this weekend (with both bikes) :)

The only Enduro I did this weekend:

Hayley and I are confirmed. I might also bring my Mrs. 

No not the 9th. I am away in Rotorua that weekend (my first visit, way overdue). Can we maybe do the 2nd or the 16th?

How about a hub ride in Rotorua???

 

I am pretty flexible on the dates. I will let the group decide.
