Finally, A bike shop in east Dorkland

[Ixion]

Well, soon , anyway, they say

Botany Honda tis to be , according to the ad in the local rag. "Opening soon". sounds like the full monty, new and used bikes, accessories, parts, and service.

Been a right pain having nothing betwixt Papakura and NewMarket. (A couple of bike wreckers and small scale operations I know, but no full blown franchise operation)

3 Trugood Drive, of Te Rakau Drive for anyone interested . 2742727

No connection with them, just saw the ad in the paper. It will be a convenience.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet! Considering a) I just recently bought property out this way (Ormiston Road) and b) I'm thinkin of buying a Honda :Punk:

[justsomeguy]

That area is growing like farms in forests......

Bout time too....:yes:

Hey Allun how much does an average 3 bedroom house go for in that area??

[johnny]

HAHAHA
I saw thats Ads too!!! so exciting!!! which will be just 5~10mins drive from where i live!!! ahahahahah yeah!! :ride:

Shitloads too much bro - our old place (rental) went for over 450,000 and it was just a 3 brm ordinary old house on chapel road.....I reckon $180 to 200k worth of house and 100 of land at the most! The landlord actually said (when he was telling us that he was selling up!) that he had bought the place not 18 months before with the intention of selling it in under 2 years as the area boomed......guess he was right then huh? :whocares:

Also the temple up the road is good luck apparently....not for me, I almost got taken out by someone coming out of it's driveway once.

But yeah a bike shop is distinctivley lacking round 'ere!

Yeah - once upon a time that area had some cheap houses - not they're shocking.

And yeah - houses near a church/temple/mosque/whateveryoulike are really good luck and bring great wealth and prosperity.

If you don't believe me go ask a real-estate agent.:shifty: ..........:laugh:

Should catch up and do that ZZR ride some time how bout in around 2 Sundays??:ride: - know of two other ZZR's from KB hopefully we can drag them along too.:yes:

Used to go blackberrying there as a kid....used to ride on the gravel roads as a teenager.....I go there now and get lost....and sad....and angry for loss of farmland.

Mostest furthest east was Panmure Motorcycles,but they started after I became a Westy.

nah...I've decided that whilst bikes are cool, the Honda Civic, circa 1983 is the ultimate vehicle.

YEAH RIGHT. :weird:

Looking at a CBR600RR

Yeah, I watched the trees and green fields steadily disappear, and the houses creep over it all. Not a blade of grass, not a tree, not a bird singing. Couldn't live like that myself, I'd go crazy (yeah, alright then, crazier).

Panmure MC , long gone.

You done the right thing getting out. Gotta go cross another day of on the calender, counting down till I can follow you.

A good choice but if you want an investment get one of the first civics in good condition and store it. Fast becoming a classic I reckon.

Me thinks mr jackrat that you have never been out to botany..... Not a large island population there. And the climate does not encourage the growing of coconuts any more than the rest of auckland. Get out of Waiuku once in a while eh?

[aff-man]

Finally and i'm in the market for a new shop as well :Punk:

Now the question will be are they any good :yes:

LOL,I travel through Botany every week day,I know exactly how close they are.Why do you think I mentioned it,in jest BTW.
AND, I'd say I get out of Waiuku dang side more often than you do.

Just back from their grand-opening today. Most impressed. Quite a large range of bikes in store for the big day, heaps of off road/MX as well as road, from step thru's to 1000's, very nice. Decent amount of accessories also which is good for a local boy always after more gear! Spoke to the guys that own it, seem pretty clued. Shane King there for the day signing stuff and all very party like. Sounds like I own this place doesnt it? :no: just pleased there is now a big gap filled out this way :Punk: BTW 1st post Hi! :drinkup:

[SixPackBack]
