Goddaym tractor-riding ocker c00nt stole my line.

Me personally, I was filtering through rush hour up and down the northern and southern motorways with a chick in pink leather on the pillion seat.

Would have been hard to miss if I'd stayed in one place long enough to be seen.

Well then you must have seen my bike (wednesday) parked up Ponsonby Road from 12.30pm to 2.30pm..... then parked up at Motohaus........ before hitting the motorway...... I saw heaps of bikes out on the road. Even saw two other bikes parked just up the road from where I was parked.

Will be in the city again today (thursday) around lunchtime....

It would be transformed into a hyosung if one attached a vibrating cock ring....

In that instance, you'd just sit on it and rotate....make sure you use the correct lubricant for the engine ..... and mounts:whistle:

most of the bikes in auckland have been sold because they dont have upside down forks and therefore don't go fast enough.

The ZXR250 market is also pretty slow right now because of all the people upgrading from fireblades and zx9r's. So everyone who has just sold there bike needs to wait for their real machine to arrive from japan.

thats where all the bikes have gone

Last night I was proved wrong, there are actually bikes being ridden in Auckland and not just parked up on the side of the road!! Managed to get out to the infamous Thursday night ride with the Auckland crew (thanks to MDU for the pillion seat!) And had a lot of fun on the ride, met some interesting characters and awesome to see Madduck and Frosty again :)
Nice to meet the few I managed to catch last night, there were quite a few there.... and not a lot of time.

So I am leaving this city today and as of 1pm I have nothing to do till 5pm (meeting cancelled). So if anyone is in town and wants to catch up for coffee I decided to watch the world go by at the cafe downstairs at the hotel (Sky City). I was going to shop but due to yesterdays effort I have a blister that cannot be walked on...:rofl:

Easy to recognise, wll be sipping a wine looking relaxed (unusual in Auckland) or you can txt me on 027 4959866

Cheers Auckland for the hospitality I will be back in April

I was more worried about the attachments that came with it..... a bike like that means that the little ones would go with it and i'm not sure what to do with them........nice to meet you as well :)
