I'm feeling clinically depressed :disapint: about the lack of great weekend riding weather in our fair country over the last few months.
We need more of :sunny:

I too hope that soon it will be more sunny. :sunny: Then I can go riding when I have fixed my Yamaha so it is legal.

I've been really bored lately, so I've been looking forward to the weekend since Monday! It had better not rain all weekend too :bye:
I've been busy the last two days modifying my rear fender, I'll hopefully finish it off tonight :) I need something with which to cut plastic cleanly, so I'm going to see if I can buy a jigsaw (or something similar) after work. If not, it will be down to my box cutter and/or surgical blades to do the job :buggerd:

Hi Stonechuck,
Yeh like BlackAmin said you can score one of those dremel type tools for about $60 or thereabouts... even cheaper if they're on special at Mitre10 or places like that. A few of the crims at work use them for there bone carving and shit and they reckon got good grunt for the job.
Am currently working on eliminating my fender as well, long overdue actually. Just scored a pair of micro oval blinkers from Trike Works in Taupo. Should be the hims.

Summers coming! It was sooooo nice and warm around lunchtime today. It pissed down shortly afterwards but that brief lapse of crap weather gives me hope for some good riding weather these holidays.

Yes this weather does suck today, especially b/c it started pissing down when I was on my way to work and I only had to ride from New town to Willis St! :wacko: Oh well. At work with wet feet, wet legs & a wet coat - I had bought some of that Gecko Guard stuff but it doesn't seem to have worked. :mellow:

lol. I enjoy riding in the wet as much as I do in the dry. I think its just a frame of mind. I must be the forum crazy sod. :buggerd:
