New to site, back on 2wheels after a break...

Hi Guys,
Just joined the site, and having a look around.
Have a VTR1000f, bought after a campaign that won over my beloved, and rate it as the best bike I've owned.
Live in Palmy, looking to join a group for weekend rides, plus the odd rally.
My fave ride for blowing out the cobwebs is heading over the saddle road, then back over the track, love it on a good day! (not many of those lately!)
Looking at doing the TT2000 next year, so will begin training the backside to stand riding the firestorm for that distance!
Cheers

Welcome to KB! Nice to have you joined this bike community.

Nice to have you around.

You will enjoy getting out on the bike again, I had a 29 year break and love it. The KB riders in Manawatu / Palmy are awesome to know. There is a cool ride on tomorrow - check Manawatu Otaki social Riders.

Welcome to the Kiwi of Biker, Mr Zahria, Sir! Enjoy your biking, and please keep your VTR shiny side up! I newsta have a FahrtSturm too, once upon a time. Lotsa fun, but very thirsty. I tried to cure it one time by riding past 4 service stations, but it didn't work. It just made me push it to another one.
