    Optimistic sellers

    Thread Starter: Rcktfsh

    This trader must be pretty hard to outdo as far as optimism goes. Bike has been on the market for a year now, wonder when the penny will drop he''s dreaming at that price. You'd have thought after a year he might have got round to the little bit of tlc required to get running. ...

    MotoGP 2024

    Thread Starter: onearmedbandit

    With only 2 days until the new year, and just over 2 months until the season starts it's time for a new thread. Who's your money on? Will Bagnia do the triple? Will Marc return to former glory and bring us a season in which he dominates? Will Martin secure his dream to win a championship?...

  • New Zealand motorcycle wiki

    New Zealand motorcycle wiki
    http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/

    We have created a new space for Kiwi bikers to place their knowledge of motorcycling in New Zealand. Ever made/seen a post in the forums that was really informative, only to be lost in the deluge of drivel. Now you can place that info in the wiki where it can be easily found and referenced.

    The wiki uses KB logins, so it will log you in automatically. Any member can add or update pages.

    Remember, just like Kiwi Biker, we have created the wiki space.
    It's up to you to provide the content.

      I saw the wiki a couple of years ago, and it was pretty inactive, but I thought it had potential. So I was chatting to a mate yesterday about the benefits of wikis, and pointed out that there was this wiki which might benefit from a bit of publicity and a few keen editors adding content on ride routes and the like. I got home and found the wiki had disappeared!

      Is this a temporary situation, or has someone decided to pull the plug on this resource? If the latter, are there any other NZ motorcycle wikis which allow the public to edit?

      It's not a wiki as such but http://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/ has many adventure routes and tracks and members can submit new tracks to the site.

      Thanks for that link. It's not what I had in mind, but I'll certainly use it to plan adventure rides. I do like a bit of roughage!
