    Since when did you pass up the opportunity to do 4500-5000km over an extended weekend?....Not to mention all those months of planning and playing with routes, searching for Mystery CP's, minimising fuel stops, booking accommodation and ferries, then riding through the day and into the night.

    Shucks...we'll really, really miss you!!

    uh-huh

    Nah, decided that a, since my mate that helps get us into adventures had no leave, touring the SI for a week would be boring with only my own personalities, and b, going down just for the TT was an expensive trip. Paeroa is this weekend, so I'm flag marshalling for that and the BMW also needs the final drive rebuilt (booked in next week) due to some play developing. So all in all, some down time is good, as I've got 3 cycle/run events to support in March...

    We sailed through the warrant no problem but with the caveat that "the rear brake pads look worn. I dropped the ST off at Honda Hamilton last night and decided that I really should haver it serviced as well.

    Managed to score at 125 cc beast called the Grom to ride home and back into work this morning. It is a very cool little "city bike"

    Yep cool little bike. Tried one out while getting my new Z8's on ready for the ride. Buzzed around town on it for about 20 minutes. Feels like you can throw it over your shoulder if you need to.
