    Thank you for waving

    to another biker on a shitty auckland day, obviously having a miserable time in the downpour. I know waving's not everything's thing, but on a day like this it really makes my day.

    Was it raining ?
    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 had the same bike as you and now I am on a heavier and bigger bike it is easy as the wind can't push me around as much.

    I'm still trying to get over the shock of a Harley rider waving at me a few months ago.

    Its the crap weather - I had so many waves the other week when the weather was really bad - I guess only the nutters are out?

    I want a bigger bike already, but at the same time I'd rather wait as getting a bigger bike now will probably be the end of me.
