Suzi the safari slut's final road trip

**junkmanjoe** · 8th November 2009, 09:19

I woke up at 3.30am sat morn,,,

destination, Taupo..

i arranged to meet the new owner at taupo so on the road we go...

was a great clear starry, moon lit night...

i had plenty of time, so rushing was not on the cards.

headed off for viniger hill, as i like the twisty bit in there...
sadly i didnt see the mountain from the look out..

wondered up to waiouru, stopped at the tanks.. starting to get foggy by now..

headded in to the desert road...all was good nice and sunny...
and i could see a wall of cloud in front of me.......
Hmmmm is that rain or not...i not got my wettys on board....

so thought fuk im going to get wet..on we go..

it turned to pea soup, could see about 50meters in front....was a little worried i might get smack up the arse.... so keeped a steady pace close to the left white line....
was very fine misty rain, and had to keep wiping the visor...

so we keeped on pushing through the soup...
poped out at turangi , to sun shine...meet a couple road bike riders,going south..... mate whats the road like,,,,,Ummmmm SHIT....but have fun...

so i arrived at taupo, approx 7.30am, was a good ride over all, a bit of skill training,,,and road awareness was needed,,,

so a stoped at the coffie cart by the lake for a cupa and a friendy chat with the lady...

meet Ian the new owner,,, very nice chap.
handed over suzi.....

thats the end of the legend...

Suzi the safari slut....

I expect your memories of Suzi will quickly fade when your new european love has moved into your garage.
Your last roadtrip looks like a tagorama, where is the McDonalds aeroplane?

Nice last ride, pity we couldn't add some theme music to the post, it would have been a nice send off for the slutty old girl....

Just as an aside mate and not to hijack the thread.....
Never guess what just rode out of my garage.....

Sold me Husaberg this morning and then lo and behold....

Yes, you are correct, I am wrong...Doh! I looked at the comment and went for it, then looked at the plane and realised...
