chopper ride

Steve Broadbent called and said he would take me for a ride in his chopper to have look at the damage caused by the rain.

floods

amazing how fast the hills dump water on the coromandel. took these shots at 5.15pm last night

2 Other Kiwis bow out

Looks like we will only have one kiwi riding in the tour de france this year.bad luck to hendy and rolly missing out on team selection. I got to talk to hayden at the tour last year,nice guy. they will get their chance next year i hope along with tim gudsell.

winter 2010

Sure feels like winter here,we have had lots of rain and wind which make it very hard to get out on the bike.
the odd day when it has been nice have been very enjoyable. other than that it has been a session on the trainer..
managed a few rides on the beemer lately but the trailbike has been idle. it's too clean at the moment!
The tour starts in 2 weeks and must say im envious of my friends from last year that are doing it again,it looks like a tough one!
Off to Fiji in 7 weeks, so looking forward to that....bring it on!
