    He's back...

    Thats right ladies and gentlemen....off the scene for a number of years (totalled a bike in '05) now I'm back. Ready to get on a bike again...only thing is...I need a bike. Cheap, and runs well...A bit hard to find in Gisborne, but oh well. Looks like I have a lot of reading to catch up on...

    I am the dude who had the cursed GSX. Curse that bike! Found out the other day the salvage value on it was $3000 after I wrote it off. Couldn't have happened to a better bike.

    I am still trying to convince my wife to let me get another bike. It is slow going, I think I am getting there though.

    Cheap...Cheap as chips (I have two children and a mortgage now, yes, I have been busy) 250cc road bike with fairings preferred. Like my GSX, but not!

    Looking at no more than $2000. Hopefully I will get a semi good bike for that.

    Blimey, Sorry I missed the OP and welcome back. How's the gait?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    The gait is all good now. Ran a marathon late last year. Shed all the bloomin kilos that joined me after my disappearance. All is good in the world.
