"Thanks to Ken and Helen MacKenzie for organising the Gentle Annie ride today from Taihape to Pukehamoamoa today. Ivar for the timing and also any other volunteers I have failed to mention. Without you people we would have never ridden this epic ride today. The lunch spread was awesome so thanks to whomever arranged that as well. Thanks also to the sponsors. Riders don't forget to support your local shops and sponsors. I personally rode with the C/D Grade riders so I could ride with my friends Hillary/ Tama/ Seddo / Warren Foulds etc there are some photo's on my facebook page if you want to look ....some of the scenery and some of the riders....
