Natives News 202

02 May 2008

Hi there,
So the season's pretty much wrapped up for another year and what a blast it's been - we've had fresh tracks from December to May! And now it's all about summer plans - will you continue riding in NZ or Oz, get a job repping in Corsica or just enjoy the huge host of summer events in the UK? We're torn, but only because we hate the thought of missing out on any of the fun.
