If you went from Greymouth to Christchurch, Milford Sound to Tairoa Head or Cape Egmont to East Cape, you'd need more fuel. But if you went from the Manukau to the Waitemata you'd be alright...

Any real difference to those who ride 50cc mopeds across the Alps or up onto the Central Plateau? What a great deal of fun... :wings:

...way back when things were different and an adventure bike was whatever you owned (or borrowed), two of us rode a
borrowed', Honda SS90 from Chch to south of Hokitika and back. canvas gym shoes and denim jackets with open face helmets...seemed normal if you wanted to get somewhere then...fucked if I would even think of something like that now...

Lets see, new window frame, her indoors, new carpets, her indoors, finish the bathroom, her indoors, finish the wiring, her indoors...........There seems to be a theme building here. To put it another way, I am a wimp, and am under the thumb.:facepalm:



And I like having sex with someone other than myself.:devil2:
