    Smile Welcome

    Nice bike choice - hope it's going ok?

    Try WNR or the wednesday night british style bike night at The Plough in Rangiora for getting out and about.

    Also if you want to upskill, I am running training courses subsidised by ACC (some are women only) over the next couple of months check out our website if you want to know more.

    I'm riding in and out of CHCH every day or so so may see you around.

    Congrats on the purchase. Whereabouts in Christchurch are you? I've also just started riding and bought a 1999 Honda VTR last weekend.

    Loving riding the bike, even if there have been a few eye opening moments.
    You only need two tools in life:
    Duct tape if it moves and it shouldn't.
    WD-40 if it doesn't move and it should.


    Brute force and ignorance always prevails.
    Failure comes from too little brute force, or
    too little ignorance.
