Hey Men.........
Well as the title says........I am a newbie here.
I post most of my information and questions on Thumper Talk.
I thought I would try and see what is available in NZ for forums for dirt bikes.
I have to say...........This forum takes a bit of getting use to.......to Navigate.
Anyway looking forward to hearing some stories and learing a few things along the way.
I am a hobbie engine rebuilder and enjoy spending time in my workshop rebuilding 2 and 4 stroke engines.
All the best and Kind regards
Geoff.

Wel that's a great way to start off then. Apologies to the ladies.
Perhaps I will start again by saying
Hello there Ladies and Gents.
I will certainly remember this for next time.
Sorry.
Geoff.

I recently managed to spend more than a (2T) bikes total value on fixing up its motor so am probably not an example to follow. Ended up with something rideable so it wasn't a complete disaster.

OR you just have a lot of strong feelings and the emotional maturity of a 4 year old and cant resolve them any other way.
Just sayin...

Cheers crasher............The reason for the Chi drink is I use to be a musician and have spent my life in and out of bars, clubs and hotels. Toured around New Zealand in bands. So I ended up drinking and druging for manys years. It took it's toll and I have now been off the piss for 3 years. Hence the reason I am now doing this............I have to keep my hands busy so I am not spending time in my own head. I attend regular meetings for people like me who can't do piss anymore. I have 5 kids and it was time I became a responsible parent. It is great father and son time in the workshop with the kids.
