Seems abit weird doing it on a date that has low tide at the end of the day.

anyway i'm out. thats a week after due date for child number 3........

i'll try for the moose meet tho..................

count me in.
whose camping??

what is this beach like?
wide?
hard?
dunes??
as for camping, I think we all are, as the map shows no life there. :wink:

its long as hell, longer than muirs, goes all the way up to 90mile and down to north head.
pretty hard and huge if you head down to north head.
awsome..

4 weeks to go.... are big foots needed ?

in sure roffey could use a set if thers any going on loan.

3 weeks to go... its looking good

Roffey is hooked up, he has got my front fork and 3 BF wheels .
So it's time to finish the fibre buggy axle and make a 5 wheel kit for it. :roll:
I may need two more barrow deep grooves, jimmy.

the 14th BBBB bring it on

hmmmm.... they got those tyres by mistake. you make the 5 wheels ill find the tyres . Yay Roffey, go get those suckers balanced at CYCLETREADS if you intend to use them in the high speed stuff, else no need if its just for dunes.

send me some pics of the fibre axle and specs. i want to see it.

I'll take some photos tomorrow but I will not be on line till wed , ping me a email address,in the PM for the photos

so whose going then??

im on the fence, but to be honest it looks like rain at least saturday, sunday might still be good. Port waikato is beconing me... but maybe not even that this weekend..

come on brooooow it wont be the same without you! we can all watch roffey get the new bigfoot airborn with his 2.3m :!:
we are going down friday avro, the weather is gona be lovley and sunny and perfect for buggying.

if im going to use up my "buggy points" its going to be better than a 30/70 shot. at this stage i dont see it being great, but sunday looks like the best day for it, no question there is wind though and good company.
