    The plan forming in my tiny mind is probably too stupid to even contemplate. It would be a huuuuuuuuuge day:
    Chch to Springs Junction
    Springs Junction to Reefton
    Reefton to Greymouth
    Greymouth to Westport
    Westport to Nelson
    Nelson to Kiakoura
    Kiakoura to Chch

    It's about 1100k in a day....

    Or I'm told the road from Westport to Karamea is a gem:
    Chch to Springs Junction
    Springs Junction to Reefton
    Reefton to Greymouth
    Greymouth to Westport
    Westport to Karamea to Westport
    Westport to Springs Junction
    Springs Junction to Chch

    Any other suggestions?

    For me anything over 700k's in a day on a sprots bike is a lot. 'Specially with a sore knee. You SURE you'll be up to it? Definitely not trying to talk you out of it, but I'd hate to see you stuff up the surgery.

    After my first op I had my leg in plaster and I also had a booking for my full license test. I passed, but only after I promised the instructor I wouldn't blame him if I fell off.

    Thanks for the concern though Tony . I will have to make the call closr to the time but I will let you know.

    Collision Clinic is a part of Apex. I know Steve and Kev quite well and I saw it when I was down there.

    Take note people, storing your machine in a lunatics gagre means social rejects of every persausion crusing round on your baby while you're at home under the floor jacking up piles.

    K14, just make sure that skinny white ass of yours doesn't leave permamnent dents in the seat eh... and the rear tyre will need replacing and make sure you wipe the "excitement stains" off the tank....

    Sounds like she's yours for the day K14! It'll only cost you about $330 + gas...
