  2. what it means to me

    In all my years of travel ... on these islands, and the rest.
    In trains and boats ,and planes ... cars and trucks and vans.
    No matter where I went, or when ... one way I loved the best.
    The way it was, when I'm in control ... control in my two hands.

    And better still, if there could be ... a better way to go at all.
    I found it, soon enough ... the way I know you like.
    The feeling that I found ... boreing, no not at all.
    The way I found, ...

  4. Can the Real 2010 Please Stand Up!

    ……..........Dick did not run to start the fun,
    He did not take a leap.
    He did not stoop, but made a swoop
    At a steady forward creep!

    …Now I’m not saying that 2010 is Deadeye Dick and I’m Eskimo Nell, but so it is that 2010 has made its presence felt to me, more of a whimper rather than a roar. I’ve barely done 1,000Kms since the beginning of December! That’s nearly two months in the heart of the riding season! I generally do more than that in the middle of ...

  5. A New Start?

    Well 2010 arrived with a hiss and a roar, what a ride it has been so far.

    After the ups n downs of December and theNew Year wekend,I find myself single and facing a new journey, but at least I have a newer toy to journey on (KTM SupaDUKE YAY!) and wondering what the future holds...only time can answer that question I guess

    A few bitter disapointments behind me and moving forward, I have decided to chill and be just myself for a while, looking at moving to Wairarapa ...

  6. The Tin Hut Tauherenikau Wedges

    Another great evening for a ride. Caught up with the wednesday night crew again and headed over the hill again, this just a little further up the road.
    Second time over the hill this week for me and since I had a really good run on Monday night I was looking forward to a repeat tonight. To make that happened I hung back and let the crowd go for it. By the time I got to the hill I had a clear road in front of me
    Road was in good nick again and the road work crew are making ...

  8. Taking to the trails

    I got out dirt biking for the first time ever.....had a blast. Stu from Over the top adventures hooked me up and took me out with him and a brit to hit the trails and get some offroading skills under my belt. Went out for most of the day around Waihi...lets just say it was definitely NOT a novice route, but it just meant that I was thrown straight into the hard stuff and got the crap kicked out of my legs, but the learning curve and the adrenaline rush were more then worth the pain!!! ...
