What a beautiful day. Dry, sunny (but not too warm), no wind, and hardly any traffic on SH2 travelling north.

Tootled along my merry way at 105-110, in case of the any donation seekers, and almost had the motorway to myself. Brilliant.

Totally agreed. Took the Missus’s RF400 to work today….sheesh..where’s that V-Twin mid-range I’m that I’m slowly getting used to !!!
Great morning for a ride as Pwalo says.

Sheesh!

Do you people ALWAYS have to put the mockers on the weather, just as it starts looking good?

Knock it off!

Rubbish. Plus other words I've been told I'm not allowed to use any more.

Yes it is great to be alive in Welly this morning. Of course, if I were forced to choose I'd prefer to be alive wherever I am!

It seems weired that people have to post about good weather in Wellington. It is summer after all.

Being a Hawke's Bay lad As far as I'm concerned the weather in Wellington is pretty average today. Sure it's sunny, but it ain't that warm and that cold breeze is still around.

It's a bit of sunshine. No big deal really. It'll probably be raining again by this afternoon.

You a Hawkesbay Lad too Bartman! I was up there in October visiting my bro and it was 26 degrees. Riding back to wellies was depressing as I got through the gorge and started the trip further south the wet weather gear came out! Nearly turned around and went back!
Damn Global Warming!!!

Enjoy the freefall while it lasts the next bit is gonna hurt!!!

Theres a good reason why some of us choose to live in Hawkes Bay besides the weather, it has lots of other positives going for it.

Pedalled into work this morning in short sleeves and shorts.....nice.

Good fun roads for motorcycling, good people (not overpopulated), good wineries, good restaurants and bars, good theatres, good beaches, good mountain ranges for tramping, good mountain biking areas, good rivers for fishing (if ur into that !), good uncrowded beaches for whatever, good sunsets, actually bloody stunning lots o times, and generally lifes pretty good in this neck of the woods.

Actually good is not good enought, its bloody fantastic.

Hmmm, ain't life good.
