So I have some fairly traumatised children and lots of completely trashed belongings after the latest quake however we are all ok and very greatful but now I have done the good mommy thing and moved my kiddies and me to Blenheim. I have been able to start work here straight away which is great, however I dont know anyone here so If there is any lady riders from round these parts I would love to meet some friendly faces thats for sure... or any of you chch ladies comin up this way, give me a buzz.

Prolly my favourite SI town! The ride through the Rye Valley is stunning and MyGSXf is in Nelson, Scummies daughter. She's a goodun!

Goodluck down there...yes a few of us escaped after Feb 22. I was just starting to settle back in Christchurch after a couple of years away, then it hit! I have now moved up to Palmerston North permanantly. I wish you luck on finding riding buddies. Yes genie and MyGsxF are both in that area but I believe they are both in Nelson. There will be people, just put the word out...you will make riding buddies quicker than flies to pigshit!

Hey dude...it's Rai Valley, I'm heading over there in the morning - I've fallen in love with the another hill.

Hey there man's ruin, met you briefly at Nelson Rally, welcome to the nice end of the island. You will love the weather and the stillness. All the best and if ever you pop over the hill...let me know.

Just shows it's been far too long since I was last there...('91)

And isn't Blenheim about the sunniest town in NZ?

Yeah, blenheim and nelson duje it out most summers, though some sneaky norf island town beat them both one year.

'91....best you get mended and take a cruise on the interislander - I hear it's fun.
