For those people who enjoy motorcycles from the past, and in particular the 60s, 70s and 80s. This saw the rise and demise of the large 2 strokes that many of us enjoyed in our youth. This blog celebrates this time in particular but also motorcycling in general .

Blue Haze / VJMC run Ekatahuna via The Saddle Road 7th December 09
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.
