    I found him here: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ighlight=howdy

    I saw his weak insult. Needs to get a sense of humour. Another keyboard hero as you would say!

    Nice to meet new faces along the way. Great company good laughs and great roads and riding.

    Great mix of bikes on the ride, from several Harleys, sportsbikes, Tourers and cruise missles.

    I would like to dedicate this ride to Captain Howdy.

    Well done Cam, great ride bud. Thanks

    You are welcome mate! I can see us doing some of those roads again. Good corners, very long straights, scenic stops by artistic paintings.... had it all really.

    Shame the guy didn't put the jug on or open the beer fridge while we were all milling around.

    Nice for some! Good to see he did something.

    Hey they were great roads up that way. Will definitely get up there again sometime soon. Good to meet you all, I am sure next time we all make it all the way round for a beer at the end.... and the odd one in the middle. Was about 400km for my round trip. Good way to spend the afternoon.

    Can only agree, a good way to get rid of a tank of fuel. Got home with fuel light showing,

    You got fuel cells hidden in the boot ? lol even with the top up in ashurst, i had to peel off at shannon and top up again, Don't think the reserve is workin so it could have got embarrassing !
    Love the mobility scoota you have listed there haha understatment for sure !
    Was thinkin the speed triple be the better bike for that ride, but heard ya were doing it on the wing so took the bopboppa thinking it would be a leisurely pace through the backblocks, haha Know i slept bloody well last night !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    I hadn't registered as funds are real tight not working and the day is a Monday, hopeful I would be back working by then. Will call em and see if there are spots left.


    As for fuel, I could have made it back when I realised I still had 3 litres left in the tank after fuelling up at Otaki. The pace of the ride was great! Are you going to the trackday?

    Yeah i'm a starter if there's any slots left !
    Mondays work as I'm still on the never never with work, seein i'll never go back to what it was i was doin that broke me and the way ACC work, I can never see me being hired as a giggalo, every case manager i bring up the option of retraining with, bursts out laughing and sends me home !
    Ok so there was this one guy...... who got quite serious, but soon cooled down when i told him to look up my work history and he found proffesional pussy kisser under previous (there wasn't an option for lion trainer)
