Here we are Ladies and gentlemen!!!

So, Bryn from Wellington,
originally from Nelson where I had a beautiful big shed and tools for africa, to a highrise. with no shed. and the tools i can fit in a shoebox :(...

My current ride is a ZXR250a from the days of 1989; when bikes were just stupid.

I knooooow what your thinking...: here's another SQID on the site... blah blah blah thinks his little rice burner's awesome... and yes, you would be right!!! I love my wee kwaka, and for a 250, it's possibly the sparkiest wee thing you can lay hands on, sre, its CBR and FZR cousins are a much of a muchness, but they don't have USDF's or twin disk or that cool dog-bone set up that the Kwaka was endowed with.

And thanks to my best efforts: I'm proudly in the illegal realm of power to weight ratio above the learner limit!

So without further ado, I'm off, with my rather loud (sorry wellington) little crotch rocket; to hit the windies and scrape my knees!!

Hopefully not a heroic death!!!!!!:laugh: I'm quite partial to the idea of dying quietly in bed of old age!!!

And luckily for wellington; we have so little road ( "their" side or not!) that the trucks tend to stay away! but yes; safety is paramount!

So in kind with the gentleperson above; keep safe motorcyclists!

Check out the series of events that this post refers to, I'm just concerned that while you should always have fun riding, that yours and other peoples safety is also remembered.
