1st group ride I have been in since going away. Went outside and hooked up with Phatboy, Bugs and Silverfox. We headed around the river and started up Crapaki. Decided to skip the side loop and maybe have an extra loop at the CAP (Christchurch adventure Park). Phatboy rode the new rapaki single track, Bugs and I started to but headed onto the main track. Silverfox had whizzed pass at this stage so we caught him up. I could see Tinkerbell and Young Jenna ahead of us. After some unfair play, Silverfox summitted head of us. I then continued on up Mt Vernon after Tinks and Jenna catching them before the last steep climb on the bend. Stopped for a regroup at the road crossing and I was surprised the Phatboy arrived first. He led off around the traverse having a good run, then Bugs, me, Silverfox etc following. Bugs stopped to let some riders coming towards us get past so we could get a good run into Vic park. Stopped in the trees out of the wind and after regrouping I summited ahead of the others. Led off down Thompsons with everyone in close order before climbing around to the top of Worsley. Down the bodybag for another regroup before heading in the gate and climbing to the chairlift drop off point. From here the lads led off down Lord of the Possums. For me a first time in the park. Clean and quite fast with some good little air options. gonna be hard on bikes as the surface is like concrete. regrouped at the bottom before heading down Double overhead Cam. More of the same but with a lot more switchbacks. Finally got to the park village. Could not get a single ride pass so we coffeed or had a beer before heading home. Great morning ride.
