come on now....no need to take it personally.
You know that out of all the Harley riders in the world you are my favourite and you can't bag the Mighty Ninja, well not yet, wait until I get my next bike and we can bag them together![]()
Was nice to be able to offer them a roof over their heads and some hay to sleep on, in exchange for their good cmmpany.I couldn't bake them a cake like they got elsewhere but I did have cold beer in the fridge
They only wanted coffee when at my place. So I drank all the beer. Nice to meet you guys!!
home now!
on the last day in the south, we rode from Twizel to picton with just petrol and piss stops in 8 hours. the Beemer runs beautifully- total kms for the trip -3963 in 8 days. there was so much gear on the bike that I couldnt get it on and off the centre stand by myself!
cc rider planned all the 'hooking up with KBers' side of things and I was left to steer the bike. We met a total of 11 KBers (details to come this evening)- rode some stellar roads - dodged some hideous weather and saw just three rozzas in the entire south island. - only one was actualy working!
lasting memories for myself were...
Queenstown is a shit hole- Im ashamed that we have a place in NZ where a glorified filled roll costs $11.00!
The road around Lakes Hawea and Tekapo - I just want to roll it up and bring it home!
Dansey's Pass - 63 km of gravel through endless tussock covered hills. Naseby and the Danseys Pass hotel are little Gems.
Ranfurly- people up there are still driving around in Mk3 Cortinas and Hillman Hunters!
One sad thing..... aside from the dozens of harleys that we saw around Christchurch, and the couple of people touring on Beemers on the West Coast. The only other Rider we saw in the entire South Island was Genie on her Ninja!
Retired- just some guy with a few bikes......
