The 300 was awesome but I struggled on two big steep hills with it , I was running a super soft old mousse and didn't think it could hammer up in second like the 450 did. Otherwise it was awesome.

Yeah Fish is the only one of the old fellas that's left. He broke his arm a couple of years ago with us but still does bloody well considering he only rides a couple of times a year now. He's usually knackered by Sunday lunchtime and stays at the quarters, then we can turn it up a couple of notches and climb into it. Theres a few of us at mid life that have raced enduros and cross countrys against each other for a long time and our young fellas are coming along now too. It's pretty sad to think something could happen to the owner and that'll be it over.

There is a jet boat in the motu river that drops hunters off for really reasonable prices.

sadly my boat is not a jet boat or i'd be keen to tag along.
