(And a mate on a nice yeller V-rod called in on the way past to rub it in)

Hell no - I owe you a beer!

Itinerary didn't work out that way sorry - would have liked to have caught up, but we stayed at Kaka Point on Monday night and with Dave at Central Otago Motorcycle Hire in Cromwell last night. They have a B&B too.

Highly recommended.

Back home now - processing photos.

Get you next time.

Sorry to miss you - hindsight is wonderful! I assume you were at Croz's book launch? Dave is a mate of mine and we were both there but he only mentioned you were going to Cromwell later on.

I didn't make the launch, but I did go to bed with the wobbly boot on after a bottle or three of Dave's Pinot post Cromwell BBQ.

What a top set-up he's got hey. Big plug coming up in KR.
