Old fart from Canada

[nosail]

Myself and a riding buddy are invading NZ in Feb. 2012. My buddy is originally from NZ but has been residing in Canada for the past 35+ years. We both used to race sidecars (he was slow, we were past Canadian champions). Even though we both ride Moto Guzzi's here, he has a R1150 in Paeroa and I have the use of an older (like me) K100RT. We plan on touring around both islands (no schedule) but we will definitely be at the Battle of the streets In Paeroa Feb. 19. If you see a couple of old farts riding about on BMW's give us a wave. I'm looking forward to riding your roads as long as I can remember which side to ride on .

Ride on whatever side of the road you feel like. I often do.

If you get near Kapiti - sing out and I'll treat you Guzzi wierdo's to a feed ;-)

Might see you round the glorious Coromandel Peninsula then - not far at all from Paeroa
