Groveburn is now an area west of Tuatapere rather than a town.

I dont know about not doing dumb shit...thats why I got a cruiser instead of a sport bike.... one run down SH1 and something capable of high speed and I wont have a license .... Still have a XR250 to play in the dirt but I so miss the 600, should never of sold it!

I will get another big dirt/ adventure bike when I have finished a few projects and sold them
