Anyone do an early ride over Thorndon on Sundays?

Usual mate, not going tomorrow, will go on me todd, but always good to go with others (plus I generally get lost)

Cheers

Richard

Ok mate I'm in, will only have about 2 hours as got to be home by 1030-1045 latest, can start a bit earlier if you like if 2 hrs isn't enough.
I normally park at the kart track and ride from there if that suits you..
Cheers

Few folk around running and some bikers.
There's a log at the start of a trail by the steep grass hill, as you go over the log the ground the other side drops away fairly steeply, think back wheel clipped the log and through the bike up and over lol I went flying mate you would have been so proud :) done it the other day with Dazer and was fine...

It was a good little run, less people over there then when it gets later, your stack luckily was in slow mo, luckily the ground is soft so you live to fight another day...

I missed these posts til today, but would be interested if you're going out early again sometime.

I don't know Thorndon well at all - so it'd be good to get shown round too!
