The Saddle Rd between Ashurst and Woodville is a favourite bit of black tar for many Manawatu riders. It is lot busier now with all the site seers visiting the wind farm at the top. The windmills are amazing up close and well worth a visit and you also get to take in some great scenery as well. We ended up taking the long way back to Palmerston North via Ekatahuna! Paul was on his Kawasaki H1c, Kim on his Kawasaki H2a, Alan on his Kawasaki A7, myself on my Kawasak KH250 and Dione on his nearly restored Honda MVX250. It was great to see Diones MVX on the road and looking really sharp. You just don't see many of these on the road these days as they can be a bit of a hand grenade. The one I ran in the 80s had no problems what so ever over a couple of years.
