"303 is the taupo president. his bike was his from bitd. he said he welded parts of bikes together? the rear drop outs were a kz kuwahara for sure but i couldnt pick anything else?

I must add, that all the rubbish taupo gets as a shite track, it was mint to roll around on an old bike. it reminded me of tracks back in the day... a bit bumpy and soft but a hell off a lot of fun..and it even managed to make me bleed!!
Cant wait to race there again !! bring on kapiti o.s.c.a.r.s"

"Hi Guys - the bike is completely home made out of old 10 speed frames and some stainless steel exhaust tubing. Back in the day I couldnt afford a decent bike so a good mate built me a frame from scratch based on the geometry of his "Flying Rhino" imported by Mitchell Cycles in New Plymouth. Took a few iterations with the odd break and such but we finally got it right. Havent had the heart to get rid of it all these years - Taupo was it's first outing for 20 years! Was great fun - might have to do it again one day. Thanks for all riders making a great day on Sunday."
