    Come on guys - there's no excuses here. It's a full day motorcycle training day - half the day theory, half the day practical.

    It's specifically targetted towards experienced motorcyclists.

    It's being run by Andrew Templeton for Upper Hutt City council and they've agreed to make it FREE for us.

    I'm already signed up. What about you?

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Email sent to Joanne.

    Wonder if Andrew knows we use that little spot for stunting from time to time?

    At 9.00am in the morning? Probably a certainty I would have thought. However the half day theory session will sort that out.

    How about if I use the theory part of the day to get drunk?

    I still remember high-siding at the 'learn to ride' course with Andrew and him telling me that I would be better suited to the race track. Caught up with him a few weeks back and he was still laughing at me.... Very good and very patient man is Mr Templeton!

    I've just got off the phone to Joanne. There's around 4 spots left on this course.

    But they've agreed that if there is enough interest they will hold another course as well.

    So if anyone is keen, give Joanne a call now.
