Thursday 5th November

Dozer picked up Bugs and headed to the bottom of Evans Pass. Sandals arrived followed by Tinkerbell, Macgyver, Craig and Barry (Bug's Mate). After a quick chat we headed up the road to the bottom of Captain Thomas. 1st time for Barry on any tracks north of Rapaki. Macgyver n Craig disappeared ahead of all on the up while the rest followed at there own pace. The odd dab for all on certain rocks but all got to the road with a bit of Huffing n puffing. Passed The Cook who was doing his own thing tonight who was headed down Captain Thomas. Macgyver n Craig headed up Greenwood while the rest followed the road on the up. Continue past the top of Greenwood with intentions of headed Broadleaf. Changed our mind at the last second and continued on to the cattle stop where we jump the fence on the up side and headed up new track that cuts into The Mt Pleasant track. On the way up to the Aerials Bug's got a call from Macgyver who had just arrived at the top. Through the gate we went where we meet up with the others. We all headed down though the tussock with some going quicker than the others but all getting to the Greenwood Junction. Craig made some adjustments to Barry's suspension as he was having issues on the rocks. Macgyver n Craig raced down Greenwood with Bug's n Tinkerbell chasing followed by Dozer, Sandals n Barry. Everyone missed the 1st rocky climb at the bottom but got the 2nd. Down into Captain Thomas with a regroup at the gate. Down we headed with some clearing most and some not as many. Arrived at the gate at the bottom where some guy was shooting his crossbow at a red bag up the hill. Good shot as we watched him hit it at 100m. Headed back to the cars as people where starting to let off there fireworks. Sandals, Dozer, Bug's n Macgyver heaed for a pint at the Twisted.
