    Blaster it is. It is a tad slower as running stock ignition. See you there

    Just thought I'd quote "Tofa" as we get near the ride in case any one forgot...

    You will need a ski that can do two tanks of gas without breaking down (tank of spare fuel- strap it on or sweet talk a sitdown to take it))

    You will need a tool kit and tow rope (spare set of spark plugs -in there ?)

    You will need money for the pub lunch and a few beers/drinks for the way up and back.

    oh crap i have trouble with at least 1 out of 4 skis on a ride
    we ran out of fuel last time we did a river run
    and my boys arent old enough to drink
    and we have no money left

    We can sort that on the day dude...Sitdowns and blasters can carry extra fuel so shouldnt be a problem

    Weathers looking good and responces on here are making for a good turn out so thanks alot.

    Just remember not to be late at the meeting point as id hate for you to drive all that way to miss the ride.
    We are meeting at the intersection of SH24 and Tepoi Rd at 9AM in the large gravel area.
    Just a recap on things you will need
    Full tank and 15ltr
    Tow rope
    Spare plugs and basic tools
    $5 per rider for parking and tractor hire if needed
    Some money for lunch and drinks at pub
    Drinks for trip up and back...Cans not bottles
    Warm gear...Wind breaker or jacket
    Helmets and goggles arnt a must but great for keeping the head warm and the spary out of your eyes.

    And PLEASE respect the river and farmers land NO skidding up the place and leaving rubbish

    Thanks
