350km ride today through twisty winding hills, up to Whangarei and back.

I almost used a full tank of fuel.

AND my boss paid me the km rate for there and back.

He then apologised and said I might have to do similar rides in the future.

It was just a shame to interrupt the riding with a 2 hour meeting.

Lunch was good though.

I am desperately trying not to let on how much I am enjoying myself :rolleyes:

Well done, - consider changing your Occupation on the Census/Electoral Roll to Motorcyclist, like I have....

Weekend trips?

I would have offered up a coffee mid trip, but I am now gainfully employed :sunny:

Yeah its a tough job but someones gotta do it! :yes:
Reminds me of "work" over the summer, when I had to ride over the <a href="http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?q=Lake+Rotoma,+Bay+Of+Plenty+3074&ie=UTF8&hl=en&geocode=FUtku_0dFHuGCg&split=0&sll=-38.0241,176.714399&sspn=0.192996,0.236628&hq=&hnear=Lake+Rotoma,+Bay+Of+Plenty&t=h&ll=-38.06617,176.61192&spn=0.020441,0.049438&z=15&layer=c&cbll=-38.066318,176.612076&panoid=WkB7WLxSkq3X7Z-FI3559Q&cbp=12,139.12,,0,-4.79">Rotomas</a> every day.

Yep I bloody hate it when on a Friday I think "bugger I have to take the bike to do that measure on way home,not the work van".Think the boss understands my disdain.
