    It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off.
    As I ran out the door, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off.
    Now I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.

    From Oakura back over the hill heading south to Hikurangi to visit more whanau, but they weren't home bugga, so decided to take the long way home, head down valley road which takes you out to Matapouri, Tutukaka, Nagunguru, and back in to Whangarei.

    Great day out. First ride of the year and she was a beaut. Been a long time between real rides and I admit to being a bit rusty into the corners for the first 100 km. After that I slowly got better at keeping that pesky 150 from gaining to much ground on me in the twisty bits. Well done ldnz on that front. Great lunch up at Opononi and also meet Nana rider (?) and his friend at the kauri tree. Great day and a good pace.

    Only complaint was the 400km turned out to be closer to 630km of great roads. What more could I ask for?
    Speed limits are just a suggestion, like pants.

    Haha cheers! Yeah I had a few scary moments in the first 10 k's or so where I ended up hard on the picks mid corner to stop from cutting under you. Sorry about that!

    Bigs Ups

    Thanks Qks for an awesome guided tour, Qkchk, thanks for making me feel welcome (read not too slow), was the best ride I've ever been on, awesome roads and finally felt "alone" enough to open the throttle a crack, without worrying about handing my license to Mr Plod.

    Back tyre is well and truely stuffed thanks goodness I've still got 5mths worth of wof, though I think its only got ATNRs left in it will need to replace it before next big ride. On the positive side though I'm now sure that those scrub marks on the edges are all mine and not the previous owners. Very happy about that!!!

    Cheers to all who made the day so memorable, and Steve how in the hell did you find that wallet, wasn't back at the servo after all was it?

    Cheers

    Shane aka NN
