    I just threw out my 15th Stones bottle say a year back when I asked myself why I was keeping it, really. Couldn't even drink the stuff whilst pissed. Decided a badge collection was of no interest to me or anyone I might try to impress.

    I went 17yrs in a row. But not for last 10 I guess. Best years were the 6 I took my RG50 which made it a challenge to ride there instead of a drone up SH1 on a barge.

    . . . and gave you something to dick around on the damp grass sitting on the tank.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I forgot to take an airbed pump, so i put the airbed opening over the exhaust of the GSXR & held it on 5 grand for a few minutes.
    The airbed went flat overnight, somehow i didnt die.
    The average iq at a cold kiwi cant have been very high back in the day & i doubt i contributed much.

    Turns out that the air in the bed is very cold, you may as well sleep on a rock.
    These newfangled self inflating foam mats seem to be the go.

    Wife refuses to go any more. Think it had a bit to do with the LPG cylinder on the fire, heck I think that happened twice, or maybe once was Brass. Sitting in your tent wondering where it might come down.

    Count me in, and I've talked a few others in to it too. One bloke's never done one and he's seventy-mumble! (I'll have to tell him to bring his OLD triumph to see if he wins a prize

    It's a shame about the bonfire but as said, not many people used it because they were all getting pissed around their own little braziers. I thought last year that with all the grog in one place people mixed a bit more, like the old days around the bonfire.

    It's a good site, it'll be interesting to see how it behaves if the weather packs in
    High miles, engine knock, rusty chrome, worn pegs...
    Brakes as new
