    slickD, r4q2, me, WS (?), Goblin (?), are keen on making the most of the weather tomorrow! so,

    meeting at Tokomaru Mobil at 11am. (prob leave Rotovegas @10ish)
    leave from Tok @11.15 for some local fun, heading for Wharepapa South cafe'.
    have a coffee, jug (aye korn? ), then mosey off on some local roads maybe finish up back at the cafe'...whatevers...

    it ain't gonna be a long ride, but should be good to get out for a bit!

    Some pics from today.
    (side of the road repair; the lads lookin' for bits)

    The first 80miles were wikkid! Some great roads through "there". Weather was superb, enough to get a sweat up, and the traffic was non-existant!

    My chain snapped (or rather, the wussy clip-link thingy did) so it took 3-4hrs to get that sorted at Phils Motorcycles in Putaruru. (top dudes! check 'em out for chains & kit prices!).
    Ended up shortening the chain and taking it easy riding home. At home i threw my smaller front sprocket on, giving me 'normal' slack again.

    I've just managed to find the "press-fit" link from my kit, so will get that fitted tomorrow.

    Big apologies for mucking up a (until then) wikkid day out, lads... Thanks for not abusing me (altho' i'm sure that'll come...)

    wybmadiity... there must be someone who can get you a good price on a bike (a real good price!)

    You might have to get friendly with the salesman tho
