I'll do it. Just reply within 10 mins cause I'm leaving for Wellington in my van so I can take the parts all the way to you, provided that I don't have to waste any time needlessly in the process as I am on a very tight schedule.
I'm on 021 155 9376.
Cheers!

:Oi: no hassling that man. Parts collected and delivered:) Sadly to little avail,
I got a loan of a ute to go 20k up the road to "Smash Palace" to borrow some spanners etc. Copper from bigend in the crankcase. It's going home on the back of a truck.
Thanks to all the volunteers, great to be part of a caring "community"
I'll be hitching to welly tomorrow, lid in hand, no need for anyone to go out of their way but you know what to do if you happen to be heading that way and see me on the side of the road.

He's a good man that Sudeep. Crashe... is there something you need to tell us....ie.. MR leaving your place on a sat morn... he he.
And also Crashe, is MR not going to Paeroa to spectate... since hes going to Wellington?
Hope your healing up well.
Sudeep was kind enough to come over this morning to check out my bike after the accident and tell me what I needed to replace to get it all road worthy again. Thanks Sudeep.
He was heading to wellington today after checking out my bike and then heading back up to Paeroa Sunday morning to watch the Paeroa Road races.....
he told me he had a hot date last night !!!!!
F/F
He may well have had a hot date last night, but thats for him to know about.... :whistle:
So I hope that clears that all up.

Actually mate, I had to post phone the actual hot date with the 21 year old cause I had to say my good byes to a good mate on his farewell. Then I came home after the party, then went to Crashe's in the morning, then etc etc...
No worries about delivering the parts to you Zooter! Driving through the National Park was pretty cool, some good roads down that way!
That's a pitty about the crank but atleast we tried. Oh and cheers for the lunch you cooked for me. :)

Add another good quality to Sudeep's list, "not a fussy eater"!
Now home in Qt thanks to expat Kiwi Chas and his GTT Skyline getting me to CHCH airport in the nick off time to catch a flight.
