Hey CJ, am still alive! Just being a wuss with all this cold weather! The few times I've been free for a ride I've had work. Then again, work is certainly appreciated

You know where I live, you're (all) welcome to pop in on your way past if you're out for a ride.

Will be free this Wed if the weather is nice

I've also been making a few mods for my Gopro:

Classic Bike Run Sunday 1st. 1100 hrs at Macdonalds Sydenham Colombo st.

Note the change of time and place, it's weather dependent because I am a soft cock.

Heading off to the private bike collestion in Horrorata.

A good ride today.

8 bikes with 10 in the group enjoyed looking at a large number of "Hondas" in various states of repair.

A big thanks to Graham, aka beemer89, for his organisation.

Pics later when I've organised them.

Here is a suggestion for the Sunday ride next week. I went on this last year and was an enjoyable day. Plenty of bikes of all makes and models. All proceeds going to the Ashburton Fire Service. I have attached the flyer. Give it some thought.

Hay all
We also had a great day out with some awesome people today, lm glad you guys enjoyed the day aswell.
Really enjoyed that small stretch of shingle road [even pretended to be lost so l could have a extra little play on the dirt ]

l will try to be on the next Sunday ride but have a heap of weekend work coming in that needs to be done before the winter really kicks in

also will try to meet up with some of you guys at the Wednesday meet-up

if the weather holds up.
Cheers Graham

Sounds like a good idea to me Jackal.

Enjoyed the ride out to Hororata, although gravel riding with Continental Road Attacks isn't particularly fun on a newly graded road i must say, but safely negotiated.

Amazing shed full of bikes, hard to pick a favourite but the CBX and Z1300 standing side by side was a sight to behold
