Rangiora...does't that bring back memories...

Railway crossing at the Chch end of East belt heading toward Woodend. Hit it at a good (Constant) speed and it felt like 50m (probably only 5) Was good till the old biddy there dobbed me in to the school....guess the uniform was a give away.

Then there was the time Robyn Mc from Amberly rode past the high school on a borrowed Kawaka 500 tripple in third, throttle wide open, leaving a trail of blue smoke, one hand on the throttle and one holding the old scooter style hat on his head (the noffa did not do the straps up), tears streaming from his eyes, cheeks flapping in the breeze... 6 week suspension after 6 of the best...

Then there was the time....sigh...way back when...

Welcome to the site, enjoy your stay, and thanks for the memories...

Hehe yeah, did the same thing, it's definately steeper than it looks.

I'm sure Harleys weren't designed to fly, but it coped pretty well.

on a Harley s the landing I would be worried about...860 kg crashing down though that budget yank suspension leaving sump impressions in the Canterbury bitch O mine...(Can't spell bitchumen...bicher...bitcher....) Wheres the spell check on this thing?

I checked, and I do not weigh 610kg!

Anyway, running a dry sump there's no oil pan of any significant proportion on an HD my friend, so it's all good.... Bitumen. :whistle:

lol!! you guys! A lady doesn't divulge her weight.. and I am sure my 'crutch rocket' would hug the 'tar seal' well!! Mmm... an experiment might be in order.. along with a change of route!! Watch this space! :D

For the best results, don't turn toward the crossing from East belt but from one street further back....used to be 55mph in 3rd...but now I preach responsible riding....gulp....so you had better not try it....cough cough..

We hope to settle in Rangiora when we finally make it to NZ, when we finally get our flat sold, so that will be 2 more newcomers to the area. I passed my test in 96 and hubbie passed his about 5 years ago................

Will holler when we touch down!
