I just got back this evening from a very good day out on a bus ride to Palmerston North and an annual golf tournament.

Having not played golf since last March, tonight I am shattered absolutely buggered.

I was walking up the fairway, and said to myself, three and a half hours of this - man I'd rather be riding!

Neverthe less I will continue to walk the fairways and ride my new bike.

Heads Up and Enjoy:yes::scooter::yes::scooter::yes::scooter:

I'd put my name in there as well, quite like the odd game of golf, but I'm obviously not in your part of the country. *Sigh*

Absolutely stuffed guy? Sounds like something's getting neglected! It's only a long walk with a few swings thrown in there ;)

Well your first hole could be a very very long par 5.

Actually I spent quite sometime the last fortnight attending the swim centre each day to try and get my fitness level up a bit. Generally happy with my game, one bad slice off the tee but generally down the middle. Started to tire at 15th. We were lucky and got in just as a few drops started to fall walking down the 18th.

Bull and I were talking this morning about finding a volunteer perhaps with a ute and hire trailer, and we could pitch in for petrol and hire fees etc to transport our clubs, and we could make a ride out of it.

Heads Up and Enjoy

I think that you should just stick to golf. It's much safer.....

I'm sure it's possible to incorporate the two endeavours. A variant of motorcycle polo but with golf clubs instead of mallets. Extra strokes incurred for touching the ground with a foot.

Now that is an excellent idea. There are some nice courses over in the Rappa.

I would be keen, except I only go to the driving range where you dont have to be skilled in the direction the ball goes. Could always go for a ride to the Solway Driving Range? They have a great cafe... maybe, just an idea.

As a greenkeeper I beg to differ. Much much safer out on the road with some of the golfers round these parts.............








Where did you play? I wasnt aware of any comps/groups on brightwater today although I did get a couple of voicemails on my phone this morning that I 'forgot' to answer cause its Sunday and I wanted to go riding. I could be in for a bit of a KB golf tournment.

I like Michael Schumachers reply, when asked if he wanted to join some other drivers in a round of golf....."No thanks, I haven't given up sex yet!"

...but I suspect sex has given up me.
