Hi all,
I will be moving to Christchurch from Canada in Feb and thought I'd get involved on the forum. Hope to get a bike shortly after I arrive and take advantage of the great riding down there. Cheers

Thanks! I followed the earthquake news pretty closely but it seems like things are going well. I have visited before and can't wait to go back, great country all around.

Hello, and welcome

Canada eh? (had to put that out there)
Yes the people of christchurch are tough bastards. Most are just waiting for the EQC to sort their shit out.
There are some great rides in and around Christchurch and it is one of the best places to base yourself.
Have you ridden bikes before?? If so, what ones?
Don't forget to bring a towel

Thanks guys.
I've been riding about 6 years now and have had a few different bikes, started off with an old 1980 CB750 fixer upper, then got a Honda Fireblade and my last bike was a Kawasaki Ninja ZX10. I've done a cross Canada/US trip on a Kawasaki Z750S so I've had my fair share of hours in the saddle. Hoping to maybe find a nice Z750, SV650 or a Hornet 900 once I get down, but it all depends on what is available.

You should try a ride across NZ, alot of the time it wont even get you an hour in the saddle.kzisou

Welcome to KB and soon NZ.
You're slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter. I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.
Welcome to the forum friend, hope that you would have nice time here. I do not also belong to NZ, but really loves to visit this forum.

Welcome to KB dude- Enjoy your stay here.

Welcome to KB and Christchurch (when you arrive). Ok so the earthquake has destroyed some of our homes but it hasn't broken out spirits (even us imports). Most people are pretty supportive and have been very quick to help us homeless refugees out so you are moving to a good city!
There are some very nice rides around this area and some great bikers who are really helpful to newbies. If you like bike racing the National will be help at Ruapuna the local track 12/13th February if you are into that.
If you want any help etc from a fellow non-Kiwi just yell! Lily
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here. QWQ

Welcome to the irreverant loony bin known as KB.
I've got cuzzies and such in Canada - what part are you from?
Winding up drongos, foil hat wearers and over sensitive KBers for over 14,000 posts...........
" Life is not a rehearsal, it's as happy or miserable as you want to make it"
Yee haaaa
And here was me thinking you'd warn him off the "Canterbury Rabble"
Welcome aboard and yell out when you get here. There'll still be plenty of rallies left to do after Feb.
The views expressed above may not match yours - But that's the reason my Dad went to war - wasn't it?
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, .... but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,... shouting "man, what a ride"!!!
