    Have a nice ride and keep your eyes peeled for grit when you start getting onto the hills...

    Whenever I say I will I don't show so if I say I won't I might.

    Stay sharp.

    First coffee stop at Little River. For some reason we seemed to be scaring other bikers away...

    I went for run out on the inland route as far as Geraldine. Not much traffic, bit cold though.

    There were a few out there at 1pm, but someone had a major bin around by Kaituna valley didn't look good with the bike upside down suspended in a hedge and it looked pretty mangled on the trailer when I saw it on the return home hope the rider got off lightly

    a total of 4 fuses used and expired kind sir!
    Turned out to be a bad earth in my headlight giving me the greif
    I missed a brilliant ride! The weather was glorious!
    Where i was stranded, I managed to wave down a very kind biker who high tailed it back to Little River for me to buy me a fuse he came back with 2 bless him. Then followed me back into Tai Tap to make sure I was ok. I wasnt waiting for long.
    Hubby has had a fiddle round behind the headlight and taped up a bare wire and now seems to be back to normal again.
    I have actually had a good run on the old girl of late. Spose i thought of that to soon huh Murphy's Law and everything.

    I only bought a bike yesterday down here but I did a bit of riding around today - quick run of Dyers pass then through the Lyttelton tunnel back to town this evening. I was quite suprised at just how much Grit is put down and how it is all just left to acumilate in the middle of the lane and doesn't seem to be swept before it is relaid. Not much fun to ride with, even when you are careful!
