    I GOT A NEW TOY!!!

    well here it is...my new baby from this saturday.

    and for those who may not recognise it, it is a Buell Firebolt XB12R, 2004.
    yeah okay...it is Harley motor in a fancy frame as D had so eloquently put it a few days back.
    It has custom paintwork, the guy who is selling it was going to race it but just doesn't have the time...hense the unusual colouring, the HD racing colours.

    We are heading down to fairlie to pick it up (about 2 hours or so from chch) on saturday morning for anyone who wants to come along (meet at Rolleston main road servo about 8.30-9am), fingers crossed the weather is good, cos i dont fancy riding a new bike back in the rain, otherwise it could be a VERY slow trip!

    ooooooooo I'm soooo damn excited

    Very nice Rashika
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Good choice Rashika. You have fun with that, you hear?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    te he he...yeah baby yeah!

    ...and now for the first time ever, (after having been to 5 already), and when/if I can be bothered going again, although it is fun looking at the bikes and even getting a play on some....I can actually get into the HOG rally on my own bike!
    What a novel concept that would be
