    And she's a total keeper. Bikes can be replaced.

    If she's a keeper does that make you some kind of Zoo animal?

    I nipped in for some oil on my GSX 250 and was casually meandering round the GSXRs when nice guy offered me a coffee and took time for a chat, despite knowing I was from Auckland and had just rolled up on a cheapo 250.

    Was a pleasure to chat - far more personable than any of the salesmen from Aucklandville I've encountered (they seem to have the uncanny ability to either size you up as a student with $20grand to spend or look down on you as an inconvenience when actually I had 6 (stretchable) k to part with!)...

    So yeah, only met you once but will be a shame not to be able to drop by again when I'm back in the capital next week

    All the best.

    Hah! Cheers mate! I'll be at their new store in Petone until the end of the month if you want another coffee. From there, I may well go and help out at Boyle Kawasaki for a bit. Back to the future perhaps.

    "Some say"... that you can pour it into the crank-case if your oil is low.

    I heard it could be used to repair potholes in driveways. Some espouse it can weld concrete.

    Boyle Kawasaki

    Is where I'm at now. It was the Boyle Bros that gave me my break in the motorcycle industry first up...back in 1987 I think it was. I was there until 1991. And so, I parked my tardis up and went back to the future.

    I'm really enjoying being back there, it's very *casual* compared to my last 20 years. But I'll tell you what, it's fucking great to be back at a motorcycle shop that remembers what it is to *repair* or *make* things as compared to *replacing* things.

    I'll get some coffee cups together and all will be good.

    Hope to see you there.

    Pete

    Do I detect a man who wanders off to work in the morning whistling a happy tune?

    If that's the case it's a bloody good feeling...
