Sundays, Sprockets and Steinlager
Words and Images By Kenny:
A few made the most of the 22 degree weather in Auckland today and set out for a spin.
A bit of uphill, a lot of down hill and there was even some Hagan Hill thrown in mix. First stop was Upland Road Skate Park in Remuera for a touch of trickery and some liquid. Headed down through the back of St Heliers and stopped in at Mission Bay for a few brews. A couple of Japanese (?) Tourists stopped in and were keen to have a go, one of which bailed and destroyed Meiches 650 wheel.
Super casual spin, but it was definitely rad to get out.
Some snaps;
- And Kenny i believe they were Chinese, but i did find them and they gave me $200AUS for the damage done, so aside from the drama of getting home sans wheel, not all a loss.

Whakapapa:Update following Arson
Things are moving along well following the arson attacks at Whakapapa in February. Clean up of the Knoll Ridge Chalet and Cat Shed sites has happened very quickly with all the debris that is easy to demolish and remove now gone. All that’s left are concrete slabs and concrete block walls. Check out the before, during and after fire photos below.
Repair work on the Waterfall Express top terminal is almost completed and we expect to allow public access to the lift again from Monday 30 March.
What next for 2009?
Temporary facilities will be constructed in time for the 2009 winter season which will consist of:
* At the old Knoll Ridge Chalet site a one level café will be constructed which will cater for 70-90 people inside and 150-200 outside
* The Schuss Haus at Hut Flat will be re-opened and will cater for approximately 50 people inside and 100 outside
* In the Top O’ Bruce Plaza area a caravan will be added and the addition to the deck in front of Lorenz’s Bar & Café, which is being constructed now, will seat approximately 60 people
* Additional ‘Portacom’ type toilets will be located at the old Knoll Ridge Chalet site, Hut Flat near the Schuss Haus and in the Top O’ Bruce Plaza area.
New Facilities
* We have now ordered new Kassbohrer Park Bully and Winch Groomers to replace the two front line groomers that were lost. The groomers will be delivered in time for the start of the 2009 winter season
* Though subject to a full consent and approval process, planning for the construction of the new buildings is well underway. We expect them to be completed and ready for use in the 2010 winter season.

Should be an interesting season, lets hope the Park Bully gets put to good use,
Also season passes go on sale in 5 days!

David Bain Tees
Mr Vintage:
Basically the press were saying that the tees are in bad taste. They also decided for some strange reason to seek the opinions of some crappy art-house designers. They of course felt it was tasteless. Meh. The writers had a field day as well. They used some aggressive words like “unrepentant”, and “slammed” – which was nice work.
Here’s some highlights:
World fashion label founder Denise L'Estrange-Corbet said people should remember that the trial was about "the murder of his family... it's a cheap way for a brand to lever publicity off something which so shocked New Zealanders".
Zambesi founder Liz Findlay agreed. "I feel that this is in bad taste...
So there are articles online on; stuff, nzherald, tvnz, Otago Daily Times, Voxy – check them out.
Now, here’s my take on what's been going on.
*
His jumpers were super-sweet. That’s a fact.
*
That chick with the weird name from ‘World’ should shut up. I mean seriously, she made kids t-shirts with the text: “future porn star”. If anyone’s trying to lever publicity from scandal then it’s surely that freaky lady.
*
That Zambesi lady reckons it’s in bad taste. She should take a second look at her Air NZ uniforms that she designed. Now that’s a fashion crime. Put a bit more effort in lady.
*
Paul Henry felt it was bad taste. That's a shame, I really like Paul Henry. I had no idea he was so PC.
*
Oliver Driver said on Sunrise that the tees were fine, and people should get over it. Good man Oliver you tall drink of water.

Tri Spoke On Ebay
Used Hed 3 Tri spoke front wheel. This wheel has some paint issue's and needs a home. Somtimes friends feel free to spray paint my front wheel I don't feel like fixing it. It has a Obey sticker on it which is neet plus some other Random stickers. Straight true and new bearings. It is a clincher and comes with a Bontrager tire. It also has some threads on it to convert into a rear freewheel set up.You will have to find a longer axle. Has no cracks at all just doesnt look that good right now. Put some TLC into this spaceship of a front wheel and look cool at the coffee shop or at your next Tri race.
I can answer any questions after 530 Pacific Time. I can provide shipping price at and of auction.
Let them hate, world wide!
