Long time rider, new to KB.
Had an 84 VT250 for a few years now, good commuter and still fun to take it for a bit of a hoon on the highways and back roads. Saddle rd, gorge, and Paihiatua track are all pretty funs frequent rides on it, alos rumitakas when down welli way.
Recently got an MX bike 98 CR125, mainly ride it on parents farm in HB, built a wee track with the old mans tractor, and unearthed my freestyle ramp from a few years ago. Currently exploring places to ride round palmy as well, have been recomended taikorea, and himitangi.
And my third bike, probly a bit of a desecration in some peoples eyes. Have got a 89 KR1 which had a busted engine, and putting an electirc motor in it, will end up with bout a fifth the horsepower, but shud still be fun to ride with electric motor acceleration

hey there.

check out the manawatu rides in meetings and events. Feilding has some local rides up and running. Everything a bit quite for the winter but there are generally a few rides running most weekends. Just rock on up and introduce yourself.

haha, yeh think itll be a 10k to massey and back commuter only, though i did have the idea of strapping a wee 2kw single phase generator to the pillion seat for those longer rides!
