New "kid" on the block...

**Krayy** · 27th July 2009, 13:50

Well, starting from the 10th of August, I'll be working at the Uni in the IT Services team as a Unix admin. So look out young 'uns...theres a rebel WITH a clue about to hit campus

I'll drop by one of the Friday arvo meetings for an intro.

Might be time to look at finishing that elusive BSc

Will be good to see a new face around!

It costs you one dollar to join, lowside is optional but does show enthusiasm for the cause.

Yeah, you get extra points for lowsiding with a pillion

I paid my obligatory lowside with the scooter, that was fun.

Shortly followed by your scooter 12-o'clock... which was just the icing on the caek!

Be extra careful with your Buell. UoA bike parking seems to be a hunting ground for bike theifs.

OGG is the big shiny business building on Grafton Road. Come and park on P4, it's where the cool kiddies hang out.

Welcome to Auckland uni/ the club, I think half the members have some form of chain-oil triggered rabies or something (they seem to froth at the mouth at the mention of anything that goes broom broom and has two wheels) but I am sure you will fit right in! (midnight fairing-painting session in the shed, anyone?)
