Just thought i'd pop on and say aye up !
New to NZ, last time i lived here was 29 years ago (when i was 5), have been in the UK for a few years. Decided to move back to NZ.
Webby seems cool and nice to see that the biking fraternity is as strong here as it tiz back in the UK.
Hopefully get to meet some of you guys/gals on my Sunday blats about the North Island......
BTW- How many bikers in Hamilton ?
Remember "loud pipes saves lives"

Kia ora and welcome back to Aotearoa Land of the long white cloud...
Yep there are few KBers in Hamilton, but I would like to point out that there are a lot more of us up here in Auckland.... you know, that little place 1 hr 30 minutes just up the road from where you are.
So come on up and join onto our rides as well.
Check out "Meetings and Events" section for rides.
Do be careful while learning our roads, they are a lot different from the UK ones.
Travel safe and ride safe.

Oops yep we work in KMs not miles over here.
So do keep an eye on ya speedo.
Suburbs = 50kms
Motorways = 100kms except at Spaghetti junction AK 80kms
Open roads = 100kms UNLESS otherwise stated.
Rural towns = 70kms but some can be 60kms or even 50kms like Huntly
But ALWAYS keep your eye open for the signs that state what the speed is.
If you brought in your bike from the UK and its set up in miles go an put some twink mark on what should be kms where it is in miles.
30 miles per hour = 50kms per hour
anyone want to put up the correct miles change over to kms per hour, for all the other known speeds.

Our limits equate to.....
50kph = 30mph
70 = 40
80 = 50
100 = 60
Demerit points build to 100 whereby you will be walking 3 months, they drop off 2 years after 'issue'

Yeah, right.
that's what the helpful rozzer suggested i do, after she'd nicked me 'allegedly exceeding the limit'...
i laughed and said 'no way'!
i know it's only an RF, but it's my RF - and it ain't gonna have twink on it!

The attitude of the apathetic uprising!! Hah, we see what you are!!
You have been conditioned by an ultra nanny state, and now you think a wannabe ultra nanny state is just another mundane excuse... You must learn to hate the (left wing) authority to be a true sith lard

PT, but please, don't any ever vote leigh boar

Out to the still then lad. When's the next batch due? The good thing about a still is being able to drink the results instead of just pouring it in your bike!
