3 weeks ago Irish, ttr230 (we will call him this as he is not a WD, and he might owe some of you money  :deal:) and myself do a short trip from Kei mouth to Mazeppa.  Trailer bikes there which may not be considered ethical but the TTR230 not very good on the road.

Ferry crossing ttr strums a tune on the 3 string guitar borrowed from the local rasta one man band.

1 st river/rock crossing all done sucessfully


2nd crossing a bit more daunting.  TTR had to do it a couple of times as camera man was useless.

The Kei Pont is for me always a highlight.  Slippery enough to make your life interesting, then the marvelous view crossing.  Then the engine packs in once and whilst drifting towards the mouth you now understand why some guys put 900cc motors into wet bikes!
