Well he left last night at about 10pm due hamilton, then down the the ferry by 6:30 and off to queenstown for work on sunday morning, Thats a long way on 10" wheels I mean taupo is a LONG way on a scooter when your looking at crusing below 100 on the motorway most of the time. Sad to see the old beast, otherwise knowen as snfiter by all my friends go. Spankme I have $200 for you, Gimmie your address and I will drop some cash off....

Why does this remind me of the citroen thread - where the woman drove it in first gear for 200kms...?

Home safe and almost sound, pretty knackered all day at work yesterday but feeling fitter today. The beast held up at almost full throttle all the way. The winds made it a lot more work than it would have otherwise been. Tailwinds down the east coast of SI were a welcome change from permanent headwinds in the north.
