can't beat an old Honda 250, they just keep on going.
dog was out for a run with some guy in a suv.
this is a popular run, you get to leave one pub, run down the Kowhai River to the sea then along the shore about 10K's then up the Waipara River to another pub without touching a road so no rego or wof needed

Any old one lunger will do! Any new one, for that matter, as long as it's not too frenetic. (I'm a bit biased in both directions, of course!)
