I was on my way to the beach this afternoon for yet more kite buggying when I saw this guy setting up for a run down the Port Hills, right across the road from where I took yesterdays photo. This, people, is a 'Dirtsurfer' and I WANT ONE!

So if you've got a spare wad of cash lying around and were wondering what to buy me.... now you know.

I've done it! I have travelled 1000 kilometers by kite buggy, which I guess is a megameter!? Yesterday while I was hurtling around Tahunanui beach, my buggy speedo rolled over 1000km and finished on 1022.5km. I still haven't thought of an apropriate way to mark this momentos occasion. Maybe buy a new kite? A notch in my buggy frame? Maybe the Nelson Kite Club should have t-shirts or badges for members who reach this milestone? Whatever... time to get started on the next megameter.


Another NKC member, Colin, was on Tahunanui Beach yesterday too. We raced each other all over the sand-spit at low tide.


This is Golden Bay yesterday (click for larger view).
The photo was taken from Princes Drive, in Nelson's Port Hills while on my way to Tahunanui. I've marked my two favourite buggy beaches. As you can see, its most definatly summer here! 8D
