Yeah I got it :laugh: It's even closer than you think - we leave from Halswell.

We'll probably need a support car - just in case :bleh:

It's just a quick spin, coffee and we'll all head home to families and lawns ........ via the hill me thinks.

How many people are going? Im sorely tempted.

How fast will you guys be going? Not overly into speeding these days and dont want to be left alone for the whole ride.

Better bring two, just in case. You know be prepared and all :D

Good man :niceone:



Oh, and don't forget that there's a race meeting at Ruapuna today. Endurance race, Motorcycling Canterbury. I'll be taking a Danish friend and his kids out there for that, so am a bit envious of anyone who goes for a proper ride!

We, that is SDU and I went to Jacksons and then across to Stillwater and home through Lewis Pass.
We think we seen you guys this side of Arthur's Pass.
Just before those road works.:shit:

We were chasing Bent51 you did the whole block.
He must have been in front of you and we did not leave CHCH until about 12 O'Clock.

We were two up and on this.

Yes it is America and has the Speed master Seat on it and other factory bling.
The last owner could not ride it as he had a sore back and sold it with 2500K's on it.
I have now done about 1000K's on it and SDU on the back so She has done 550k's on it. (had a sore hand so could not ride yesterday)

I will do a write up tonight.:2thumbsup:Playnice:
