Be good to have the 2nd meeting of Otago KBers eh?

Yep, I'm looking forward to it.

Can you give us another update on the weather tomorrow Jantar

Been there done that - they do an open chicken sandwich that will fill your boots, and quite a bit more!

I can do another update at 05:30 in the morning when I get the 04:00 satelite and synoptic data, but it will just be my own forecast and not a computer generated one. The next computer forecast will be at 09:30 am, and i'll be asleep by then.

I fired up the RE5 this afternoon, the first time since March. I'm ashamed to say that it is in bad need of a clean and polish, and the motor needs a good run followed by a tune up.

I've booked it in for its WOF tomorrow, and if all is good, I may bring it along instead of the GS. I just hope I wont get too much of a ribbing from you guys for bringing along a bike that isn't 100% prepared. But it does need a run before its tune and service and this would be a perfect time.

ScumDog, what can I bring towards the BBQ?

BRING IT! bring it! Bring the RE5, I want a pic of it in the driveway of Chez Scumdog!

Only need to bring thyself but if you insist you could bring a few nibbles - salted pea-nuts/cashew nuts/chips etc etc - only if you want - but it all helps eh?.

Anything that makes my bike look good is fine with me

Don't fret, I've got a shit of a job when it comes to getting time off too!

How about joining the Otago contingent of Kbers for the ride up to the Magpie Madness rally at Winchester on November 19th or thereabouts?

I also hope to have a few more got-togethers at Chez Scumdog throughout the summer this year so if your keen come down here eh?
