Hi, me and Pete went into Gisborne today, and decided to go have lunch at mc cafe, the place was packed and there was no parks but for one with a bmw bike parked in it, we duly parked up next to it, 3 bikes fit gr8 in a 1 car space, went inside and met a cool old chap named Trevor, he's doing a bmw rally of the whole of NZ, they have to get photos of themselves and their bikes at places all over the country, he's down the south and has almost finished the north island, this guy would have been 70 at least and we were very impressed, lovely bike lovely bloke, I hope he gets good weather for the trip back down to wgton, and then onto Nelson, it's horrible here today. Anyway if any of you out there are from Nelson and know this guy, wish him all the best from us here in Gisborne

What sort of beemer was it? Good on him, if I had more than a couple of days to rub together, I'd be doing something similar....
Hi Toads - have you got a McCafe in Gisborne now?? Neat - I love love love their coffee and food!
We'll have to plan a trip to Gisborne some time before too long to check it out!

You know I didn't look at it too closely, was more interested in getting into have coffee :o but It was very late model and big, a creamy colour, I think it's only about 6 months old, he told us he had another one the same before it but bought this one with only 17,000 on the clock, cos he had chalked up a lot of km's on his other one, he got it because it was going cheap, I would guess it was 1000 cc's or bigger.
