A walk down memory lane, with 43000km in two years, and I haven’t been any further north than Fielding, nor any further south than Island Bay………..

Newbie First Post - Basic Handling Skills
G'day
Joined this site back in Oct 04, and completed my BHS today, didn't want to rush in to fast - if you know what I mean.
The course here in Petone today was very good and a big thank you to AT, well conducted and professional.
Why did I take so long, well being an Aussie [all flack well received in the best of taste] I never rode a bike in my life and at 53yrs now you could understand why I took my time - had to come across the ditch for starters for some excellent bike riding country.
My longterm goal is to have completely toured the South Island by the time I am 60yrs old, see I keep my head up and look way ahead. Seriously will start out on a GN250 and probably remain in the Valley here for quite a few months before venturing further a field.
Big thanks to SteveDee for his encouragement it will certainly be quite a while before I even get on a Z750.
Enjoy the posts on this forum and 'catch ya later'.
I recently read back through the sub-forum thread BuckBuckNo1 Update - Newbie Training: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=30010
and I must confess it is still very refreshing to read the feedback comments from those early days. I look forward to my riding through winter and re-visiting many of those topics I covered two years ago.
Heads Up and Enjoy
