Any Christchurch riders seen this guy?

[Blinkwing]

there is a rather large guy on the North Shore that rides a GN250 - he fills the enitre seat front to back and wears shorts and jandals. Don't quite know how the GN copes though......

Haha, I've seen that guy.

A few of the 'strange' riders I've seen are either fat women on scooters or pot bellied guys on GN250s.

Well when he finally gets squished he ll be cursing the day he never wore the right gear......

I have seen this guy on SJ50 though not recently. Sounds like the route he rides on is very close to where I live...

I see the big guy all the time. He usually rides with shorts, t-shirt and jandals no matter what the temperature, oh and no gloves of course. His bike looks bigger than a 50cc job though. The bike I see him riding has panniers and a top box. He rides far too quick for my liking, eventually he'll fall off.

I think I know who you're talking about, he used to ride a GN or similar a few years back, and now has a Honda cruiser. Jandels, shorts and a t-shirt everytime.

Used to see a one armed guy in chch about 20 yrs ago on a gn250 , which he had cut the unused handle bar off. Can't say I've seen the dwarf round at all......

Don't you mean he will roll off!

Now now. As an XXOS SJ50 rider I resemble that remark.

And as for the guy who laughed at the scooterist in the good riding gear, did you not wonder what his other bike was?

Now this guy I see quite often - even in winter he has a sleeveless top and jandels on!

[one fast tl1ooo]

Nope not me

Yeah that's him, everytime I see him which is about every fortnight, I just cringe as I start visualisng him coming off and the road peeling him like a banana. Always seem to see him around Heaton Street, last time I saw him he came out of the fish and chip shop on Normans Road. He took off like a rocket, It's like he has the bike in first and all he does is hit the starter with the clutch in and drop it as he sits on the bike; all at once. I must say he looks like he's enjoying himself.

One identity of the 70s & 80s that frequented the same areas was a Dwarf on a Honda Z50 Gorilla Von mannsburg was his surname.
This guy should be an easy spot though

He's still around - or was a year or two ago

Yeah, he's been around for as long as I can remember. He rides a hell of a lot and you see either him or his bike verywhere.

I've seen the guy on the bike (gn125?) with the t-shirt, potbelly for africa half lid and jandles sometimes a crate bunjee'd on the back of it too

Going to work down hereford street about 1yr ago a dwarf used to regularly ride down on a Z50 with those riser bars. Pretty cool really, think it was yellow
