Hello,
Did you know that because of the parasite varroa (which slowly eats them), bees are now unable to live continuously in the wild. I can offer them a beautiful location new home and treat them regularly to remove varroa. Am happy to collect any honey-bee swarms. Thanks, seaninbmth@yahoo.com … View moreHello,

We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.

Probably hasn't had a lot of use to be fair as I bought an E bike. I am not unrealistic so if you want to try it feel free to contact me on my mobile. Great for someone who does a bit of road cycling or just wants to keep fit.
