Had a bloody good day out thanks to Bonez and his pilly seat, much appreciated. And along with my mate Beth we had a wonderful tickie-tour around some of the countryside that I had not previously been in.
Wonderful warm weather, a bit of a breeze on the main road coming home. A great coffee with Bonez and Connie and then together we buzzed back to Feilding on the little bike! hehe a site to see.
Thanks Bonez - you now my Bestest Buddy, haha.:first:

A pleasure. Just don't let everybody know I'm a good ride ok? :blip:
That GN has so much power it has blown out it's second muffler end plate. Obvoiusly doesn't like being restricted :eek: Shit, it's onto it second chain in 10,000kms! Now that must say something about the pulling power it's got :whistle:

i went past you guyz ( i was in a car) where you were just outside ashhurst on sat or fri or something. I was a fair way past before I realised it was you and I wasnt driving so didnt stop. Good to hear you had a good day out. Looks like we are away next weekend and then the weekend after that we will be back up for a ride.

Unfortunately I "forced" to go out Saturday and Sunday.
With Doug on the Duke 500 Saturday. Took him up to Te Mata Peak where the pics of the Velo etc were taken.

Velo ? Velo? Hey, I missed that - y'have real bikes down there ?

What is that, a KSS motor in an M series frame, or (gasp, tremble, pant) one of the rare as rocking horse poo 1947 KSS with the optional Dowty forks. Only made for one year, and only a (literal) handful with the tele forks?

Blurdy nce, whichever.

Blurdy nce, whichever.Hawkse Bay must have one of the highest proportions of classic everything per head of population anywhere in New Zealand :spudwave:

Oh the gents on the Gelira and SP1 also own Velos, but live in Hamilton. And there is a gent here in Palmerston North who owns a few. Apperently once you get one they self produce and you end up with a shed full of the bliters. Not unlike Hondas really.

Had a wee giggle when you went trundling passed. I'm sure I was stationary though.:nya:

Had a good natter with Roger's dad lastnight. Seems keen on getting a GN being a short arse and all. He's 70 years old and still keen on riding. You have to admire him for that.

damn looks like a nice ride.

If you guys don't mind a little wee fxr150 trottling along next time you go riding, give me a yell. Went to Newbie ride last month at Welly but most of my ride was actually getting there then getting back....

So I'm a little slow....... Were you on the back of the GN250 all along shazzy??? (if that's the case, all my respect to you and the GN250 rider...)
