Had a great ride on the weekend, quad only ride at Maramarua Forrest.
Brilliant way to celebrate getting back home.
Was riding with a friend on an Outlaw 525, & another friend on my "spare" Z400 (ex wife didn't want to take it)
Great fun, lots of hard-core roosting of eachother at every opportunity, mud for africa
Took about an hour to get all the dirt off the bikes, still need to finish cleaning, lubing chains, spraying with silicon etc.

Great ride, lots of fun, have reaquainted myself with lots of muscles I had long since forgotten!
