Purchased my Boots & trousers on Saturday from Cycletreads ($340 boots $210 trousers) along with my VIP discount - always handy.

Great tip
When getting on your bike turn the wheel away from you - tis easier to get on (I must've looked like a right novice)


Ok my first go on the motorway (Got on at Highbrook & off at Ellerslie) this weekend and with thanks to Paul on his 1200 Bandit for helping boost my confidence. It was a simple task even though the weather (windy & rainy) wind was more of a thought for me as I've not experienced it as much as that (- get over it !) wondered weather I'd done up my jacket enough and gave my waist band a bit more of a tug when I reached the off ramp and caught up with Paul who had forgotten that I could only do 80 as he sped off at a ton thinking "where is he".


Will definitely do a commute this week, beginning of the week looks like a wash out so will try RED58 on Thursday / Friday .
