ID:	216882Mrs Shrek sat her learners on Friday & passed, while I went bush with rifle on bike, came home late Sat so to late to go for ride
    Sunday arvo off we on our 1st ride together, we went around a small block 65k's approx there was a fear bit of traffic heading back to town from the ski fields so the plan was I would follow her & when cars came up behind us, she would move left & I would move out & when there were no yellow lines or traffic I too would move left
    she had her L plate on & stuck to the 70kph limit anyway on our way out of Roxburgh we had a cue of traffic & when it was clear I moved left & there were toots & waves further up the road & another cue goes past & as the straight was coming to an end a yellow line appears a white van still over took cutting back in on Mrs S but not that close that she or I : then on a quite back road & move L plate as it hid indercator when turning left, all in all I was impressed with the cadges & their attitudes

    going past air field on home run, there's a nice straight no traffic must get rid of carbon build up as I was in 3rd or 4th gear most of time

    Day 2

    well have bike will ride & as I don't work mondays we gone
    headed for Alex, Clyde then Spingvale for a coffee at Jantar's then back to Clyde & home
    this time Mrs S did 80kph as she felt that 70 was to slow for a busy HW we had a large B Train & 4 axle with trailer pass both of them were just great as both of them saw that there was a learner up front & gave her the space she needed
    all in all again was a great day for a ride with only one that decieded to try a push past me then cut Mrs off middle aged female & heres me thinking it would more likely have been 4X4's or young ones but they were all great it would be great if it stays like this every time we go riding,
    riding shotgun is not that bad when the view is that good

    Well done guys! Mrs Jackal and I did the same thing on Sunday but not as far as you by the sounds of it. Got across the S.H.1 Ashburton bridge into town for the first time for a coffee, petrol and a bit of practice through intersections and traffic. Next fine weekend it is a trip out of town. You are spot on Shrek regarding 'the view' while riding shotgun. I can sit behind Mrs Jackals VL all day. Though have to be careful about 'hazard fixation'!!!! Keep up the good work.
