Who rode to work today?

**Sparky Bills** · 20th July 2005, 11:02

I dont have a car, so ummm yeah, i rode.

I always bring the bike in to work. And it's a beautiful day down here in the capital (well in Petone anyway).

Work from home equals no ride to work for me! But it is a lovely day so I think I will go for a ride this afternoon.

Home tonight via the Wainuiomata coast road!

I remember our last new tyre ride - have you worn yours out already? I still have a bit left on mine. Hmmm, wasnt that the night Ramius binned?

Oh and yes I rode to work today, like most days

i dont think you can get home "via the Wainuiomata coast road" sorry chief, unless you bought off road tyres, and are either heading around to eastbourne or ocean beach, or lake ferry, but make sure you take matches if its lake ferry as you would need to light a fire to get the pub owner to come across an pick you up, not sure about the bike though. the fire trick does work. old law. been picked up myself. your bike might sink his dingy though

I rode part of the way. Gem's currently in the scooter shop being serviced (6000k - 5990 done by someone else!

) so I then took a bus AND a train.

Today, I am Miss Public Transportation.

(and no, that doesn't mean I'm offering piggy backs).

Does anyone know whether the person who parks in the BodyWorks bike park (L-plate, GN250 etc) is a KB'er or not?

Yup. Like every day, I rode. 35kms to work, 35 back.

Nearly became a sandwich between a Pajero and a bus, but that's another story...

Even on ride to work day, they don't see us...

I did notice that no-one else in the State Services Commission Building brought their bike. There's normally a KR150, a Blackbird and a VT 250 Spada to keep my RF company. Poor things all alone today.

Where were you guys? It's only water falling from the sky...

I'm on leave today and I still rode into work just on principle after seing this thread (and to check my mail)

Damn rain! Today was supposed to be my first ride on the motorway, finally convinced my b/f to ride with me, but stoopid me didn't bring my wet weather gear!
