Anyone noticed the relative per capita lack of Motorcycles for sale on Trademe in Wton, especially compared to Chch or Auck? Intriguing (had to look that one up in the dictionary).

I personally believe it's because Wellington has nz's WORST climate for biking (and living in general...). Sorry, got a bit emotional there.

However, my home town of Dunners has less wind but...:shit: ICE...

That's because the Welly crowd are a hardy lot. Riding in most conditions including at a 60 deg lean with the wind. We are very protective of our pride and joy's. Them other lot up north don't get attached the same way and change their bikes as often as their underwear. :laugh:

Off-topic but do you mind me asking how much you got for your GPX, did you sell privately? PM me if you want.
