Unfortunately I feel that attention to detail let them down. In my view they needed more of an decline to address the tempo issues. Next time I would like to see a steeper hill or a greater incremental decline of the poles. Other than that it was a solid performance as one wood expect..and defiantly on par with a 3 iron.

Cheers

Have you been out to Sumner lately? The causeway is a mess and just past the Yacht club they've stacked up shipping containers to stop rocks falling off the old seacliffs from reaching the road.

Haven't ventured out that way Martin, I've been trying to stay away from areas that I don't need to go to (I know what it's like to have your house shake everytime a truck rumbles down the road & clouds of dust get stirred up by traffic since the September 4th quake! Every truck shakes the whole house & you think it's an aftershock). But yesterday I had to go down past Kate Sheppard, don't know if the road has sunk or the bridge has lifted but they've had to put some Tarmac 'packing' in to make a ramp up to the bridge...one or the other has shifted about 18". Then had to come back through Brighton, it's times like that I wish I'd bought the Commy with standard suspension rather than the stiffer "S" version, talk about all jar your teeth!

I know what you mean about the tempo Kim, they could've worked that out a little better :wink: .
