    I am thinking of the Graperide http://www.graperide.co.nz/ on 12 April and around Brunner http://www.challengeevents.co.nz/ind...ner_cycle_ride. BF and I are also thinking about the Great Escapade http://www.bv.com.au/great-rides/30589/ assuming of course we can both get 2 weeks off at the same time

    Grape ride on my list too. We could meet up for a wee wine after. All those grapes can't go to waste!

    I'm also going to do my first real event ever in the Round Taupo ride. 160k and only 5 weeks away. Can't decide if I'm nervous or excited.

    The Brummer ride looks good too. Pity in Sth Is.

    There is also a ride around mt Taranaki just after new year http://www.roundthemountain.co.nz/ trying to convince my DH that i should be able to go for that. Mmmm....

    ooowwwwwwww.... good luck for the Taupo race......

    I'm hoping to do the round the mountain................ Adn I sure like the sound of sampling the grapes after the graperide.. There should be a bike ride round Hawkes Bay although i might not make it out the first vineyard

    Have done the 6hr Blast (solo) and got the t-shirt to prove it.

    May do Round the Bays.

    Definitely want to do Crater Rim.

    Considering the South Island Cup XC races, but I'll have to investigate what categories are on offer. Keen to give 'em a go if they have a rec class.

    Dunno what else I might do. Maybe see what I can find in the way of a sprint tri or two. Need to get back into swimming first though. Have barely run recently either.

    Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
