Hi Liamrae .. there are a huge number of people out our way that would love to ride with you .... Grub and I are in Whitby ... but he is not quite on the bike at the moment ... but check out the mentors page http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/mentors.php?

Those guys/gals are experience riders/teachers/mentors who volunteer their time to helping out the newies :)

Will be good to see you out and about soon. :yes:

Welcome to KB! Yep, that rare blue moon with green polka dots happened when the site went down! Not to worry, the real reason should be out there riding away! Keep us posted on your experiences and don't be shy to jump in on the crazy fest here! :yes:

Have you got a sister called Lynn??? Sorry that must be a worn out joke.

Tawa seems to attract the elite, intelligent members of KBer. Pillars of society we are. How do you fit in? The others live in the Hutt...say no more.

Welcome and I have sent you a private message.

Hello again.

Don't forget about TCWNR (http://http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=35335) when you're ready.

In terms of gear, head to TSS on Cuba St in Lower Hutt. They're really good. Talk to Kerry. He's awesome and will give you a good deal on gear

[Sparky Bills]

Already said gday. :niceone:

Thanks mate. I suppose since my kids go to school in Tawa & I play squash for the Tawa club I will accept it;)

Welcome to the site.

Watch out for anyone that works at a locksmith shop!

We seem to be growing in numbers in the Tawa area. Welcome to the site from another Tawa-ite.

From one Tawa-ite to another. Welcome to the madness that is Kiwi Biker.
