Firstly would like to give Hamish the biggest THANKS for taking the huge amount of time to organise the cruise on his own. You truly out did yourself buddy and everyone that came had the most awesome time.
In my opinion this cruise tops the GOR overnighter. I am not saying i wont go to GOR anymore, but i will look forward to this cruise more than the GOR, so i really hope this becomes an annual event; with different catering arrangements .
The only draw back was the heat and having to wait for a tow truck, in the sun, as it REALLY drain my energy, by the time i hit Buller Rd. Once i was on Buller Rd, i found that extra bit of spark to navigate those twisties; fark were they fun!!! Best bit of road i have ever driven and some of the most challenging corners. Hamish, we did alright mate . Next time round; better tyres, more front camber and we'll do better .
Then the walk to the summit to watch the sun set was great too; would have been better if we weren't a little late
Hamish the food was top notch man!
I was hoping for some good grub, but you turned on an exotic feast that woke up my taste buds. I really appreciate you taking the time to cook for all of us, especially knowing how buggered we all felt from being out in the heat all day. Next time we do this, we'll just hit the local pub or order pizzas, so that we could all just sit back, have a few beers and relax.
To all those that helped clean up thanks also; to the two that didn't do shit, lift up your game if you want to be invited to the next one!
PS: I want PICS!!!!
