    You'll be needing a new bike before you go!

    The work around is called shift-work. Especially given its all the way from north to south and back.

    Man, how did I miss this thread?

    Shame to see you leaving Cam, the newbie group rides wouldn't have been the same without the fastest production bike in the world holding the tail of a line of 250s! And it was great to catch up with you when we stopped for food, those damn aucklanders are lucky to be getting you back!

    Thank you for your time helping the newbies, and I hope you enjoy your job in Auckland. Life is too short to waste it working a job you can't stand.

    Thanks for that mate, very kind. It was a pleasure to come along and help out on the rides. Just finished work today and off for a 5 week course starting Sunday. Riding back to North Auckland 1 July.

    As far as the job goes, I really enjoyed it, but I am looking forward to getting back to the country home and lifestyle.... and getting back to kicking criminal arses.

    First week down, four to go. Will be glad to leave the weather behind, although sadly I am sure I am up for many thousands of miles yet in the wind and rain travelling to and from work!

    Well, I finally finish my 6 months in Wellington this Saturday and travel to Taupo for an overnighter on the Sunday, then return to North Auckland on Monday.

    Hoping for a fine couple days riding, but don't have my hopes too high!

    Had a great time with the social riding scene down here and looking forward to doing the same back up north. Roll on Summer again!!

    All the best toaster. Have a safe trip back up North, and wishing you the best with settling into the new job.

    Mate, catch you on the flipside.

    If I am ever up that way I will expect cake and coffee to be sitting on the table when I turn up!!!

    Or I'll just have to bring my own....

    Take care

    It was very nice to meet you - though perhaps you bike was not the best in the world for 'some' of the roads eh? (moonshine?) Have a good time up north and dont get too soft in the warmth....

    Hey Cam - it was a great pleasure meeting you and your gorgeous family, and riding a few roads together. Will keep in touch if up your way, and hopefully there will be another ride or two somewhere, sometime.

    All the best for your new life back up there.
