Through rain and hail and snow

...the post must get through. A pic of my snow-encrusted daughter during her postie run (on 50cc scooter) in the snow at Arrowtown this morning. You can tell she's a real biker. Just look at that grin! Respect.

Give her a big "dad hug"!

Well done young lady

Good stuff. From what we have been getting down here, I can Imagine what it would be like up there. Well done lass.

Was in Arrowtown yesterday. Proper winter conditions and snow like I have not seen before in NZ.

Awesome!

As well as being paid to ride. What could be better?

**Arrowolf** · 14th April 2015, 08:43

That`s tuff, see her almost every day in A-town. She`s a good rider. Thx for delivery in any weather condition.

Respect!

I worked from home yesterday as it was raining on my 5km commute into town.

Hah, ya nancy. Kendal still came on the back of the bike to and from work, broken foot, crutches et al.

I'll take that! , I got to watch moto GP on the couch yesterday while drinking a cuppa tea with the fire going.

Sent the link to this thread to my daughter. Part of her response to me (which she said I could share) follows :

They’re nice things to say to a girl who after 6 hours on the bike doing a run that should have taken 3-4 hours went home and consumed nearly a litre of cider to forget all the wobbles and slides and “shit!” and *gasp* moments and regain the feeling in my extremities.

In saying that, there were more “weeeee!” moments than “shit!” moments.

That guy who commented from Arrowtown is obviously not one of the people who now have metres of fresh skid marks on his front lawn in the shape of an L or a lightening bolt from where my back tyre slid out!
