Hey Dudes and Dudess's
Thinking of seeking therapy as I have become addicted to these Rallies.
I have never had so much fun, in such a wickedly groovy atmosphere.
Thank to all those organisers for continuing to light my life up.
IDB once said to me couple of years ago, when I was chuntering on, about, fuck I must get another bike.............Hey Jan think you might like a Bike Rally, so got to the Glenorchy Rally 3 years ago, and have been hooked ever since. He now thinks he has created a Rally Monster!!!!!
Me and Tex (My Triumph Bonneville....named so coz some fat texan dropped him, Tex got written off, and saved and brought to NZ into my loving arms), anyway me and Tex have been everywhere getting to these rallies, and being a Brit still deciding to stay or go in NZ, its becoming a frightening prospect to leave this country or you lovely dudes that I keep meeting.
Its kinda like an extended family that I dont have with me, and its always such fun and a right frigging laugh to catch up with folk at the sites.
I know it takes a lot to get these things of the grounds, as when I lived In Dunners, I was with Bronz when the Vincent County Rally came up and phew what an organised bunch of bikers.:rockon:
Anyway, with the rallies come the music, so now everyday, Rock FM is on at work, and I always smile thinking of the antics and mad dancing and air guitaring that goes on.
Well, reason I wrote this is just to say. A BIG FUCKING THANK YOU, to Rally Organisers everywhere.:not::niceone::clap:
Do tablets cure these condition, or does it wear off.....hmm cant see if wearing off, and dont ever want it to.
So gnite all, off for an early one, after a nice cuppa tea.
Roll on the Wheathsheaf and the March Hare..........Hoo Fucking Ra.......:lol:
Coi for now
Hugs to all of you biker dudes, and a smack in the arm to the Biker Chicks, lets all keep rocking to them, and support the new and smaller Rallies, how else can they get bigger.
Coi 4 now
Woodybee
PS :cold: is round the corner, and I just want time to stop at the moment we are in................................................ ...:crybaby:

I'm scared of rallies.
All those burly men wearing leather.
Drinking alcoholic beverages
Standing around talking about stuff.
I am a shy little hippy.
A delicate petal.

Anyone would hate rallies if they had to sleep in your nasty-smelling-strongly-of stale sick-tent.
Vincent was my first one. I didn't really know anyone that well and since I'm such a shrinking violet in social situations I didn't really let myself shine. So I'll be trying to get to the March Hare and if I play my cards right with the babysitter arrangements I'll be bringing the missus. (technically she'll be bringing me since her bike has twice the horsepower)

Getting better is good Tim - keep it up and next thing we'll be seeing you acting like a Hindu widow again at the next rally. (Phaedrus has a thing about trying to throw himself onto huge burning masses of wood).
CB and I are NOT rally addicts, oh no we most certainly are NOT, never, ever!!
(How long does the denial stage last???)

We only have a furbaby to worry about. Make sure the litter is clean, have water and dry food out and she is good for a couple of nights. You get told off if you leave kids like that :)

I stuck a Centinary IOM teddybear on the front of IDB;s dalmah, when we were hooning round the Isle of Man, on the mountain road, and the funniest thing was, when we stopped for a pint, we looked at the teddy, which would have seen the road going past at breakneck speed with all these made italians, germans, french etc., so would have been at the front of the action,...........the teddybears goggles were steamed up,:killingme tell you what dudes and dudess's I was bent double clutching my knees at that one, passers by were giving us the big swerve round with a puzzled expression:scratch: fuck it was funny.....
My names Woodybee and I am an addict, of rallies and all things motorbikey and who gives a fuck eh :Punk:
Mind you bought the new classic bike mag the other day, and currnetly licking the page with the new Jaguar Beacham E Type V8 S, fuck, that is one sexy sleek, adorable looking car, no, beast.....................Come On Lotto make Woodybee even happier,......by cripes I could burst in that case eh:done::soon:

of motorcycle mad black leather clad people,
who pitch their tents in paddocks regaurdless of the weather,
drink lots of beer,
eat heaps of junk food,
talk shit about bikes, cages, chicks and whos got the biggest balls,
till 4 in the morning,
then ride hundreds of miles to get home again,
Ralleys?
I thought they were just weekly get togeathers in differing places?
Wow

:weep::angry2::slap::cry:
Oh my god, I wrote a huge rhyming poem on this thread the other dayto sum up rallying for me, and my coomputer cut out halfway through.
Dudes, I have to say so, it was so funny, and I am gutted not to have the opportunity of boring you all rigid with it.
Oh well, will have another go, when the inspiration flows again through my view.
Have a good week at work all.
11 days till the Mad March Rabbit:msn-wink::drinkup::ride::yeah:

Wow, 11 days time has seemingly ripped by so quick since the Woodstock and Vincent. What is with this time warp feeling, I guess the week after the Hare it will be the Brass Monkey??? :blink:
