Whos the guy with the long blonde hair that rode the Hornet?

Me. Well, unless there's two of us here.

Quick trip up from the Naki & caught up with big Dave & checked out the scenery.

Thanks Spank. Can always count on you to provide us with the important pics.

Mmmmm Yammy Girls.

Sounds like you guys had a blast.

I got to go to BBT for free. It was in the ambo.. even got to drive in "The Arena", picked up the guy that threw his CBR down the road during a stunt show. He busted his clavical (collarbone) and asked if he wil be ok to stunt tommorow.. ummmm NO.

So in the evening session Kiwi Rider's own 'Stretch' jumps on the guy's blade and does us proud. Huge wheelies stoppies rolling burn outs and a tyre poppin' performance. he da man.

Nah - not really comfortable taking and the leaving my camera around the stand all day.
But have organised a photo shoot with Shane King and his Speed Triple at Meremere for a feature in KR. We'll get Stretch there as well.

Hi all met up with a few KB's at the ride ive been a long time "guest" so i thought it was about time i joined, my Bike and my mates we both covered in the lovely golden dust too but we both took them up on stage at the Vixen Valet and had ten tarts clean them for two bucks!!
then parked in the VIP parking for the rest of the day.

[T.I.E]

and i couldn't believe i cleaned the bike the day before. oh that parking sucked a fat one. the only place free was a dust zone. next rime i'll be parking in a seperate area. overall it rocked and it was neat to meet up with a few new faces, hell most of you guys are new to me. looking forward to another run.

ok, a few shots of my contributions.

What an awesome day. Really enjoyed myself and the turn out was pretty good. Charlie is an awesome top dude (cha, like we didn't know already), and had a heap of fun working my way thru the crowd on the SH1 up to the front where Postie (on the back with a camcorder) and I found Charlie, so he started having some fun for the camera. Got some good wheelies in from Charlie, plus the footage gives a nice view of the scope of the turn out, and how cool it was to buzz thru traffic lights on the wrong side of the road - cos the cops told us to! bloody awesome. Then into the BBT arena. There's a fair bit of footage (about 40 mins), so I'll chop it up into sections when I get the chance soon, and also (if Spank wouldn't mind hosting it), might edit it into one big ride.

Anyone who didn't make it for whatever reason, shame on you!! You missed out on something a bit special that day. And a huge thanks to Spank, cos I know I wouldn't have done anything like this unless I had found this site.. So cheers dude!

few more......

oh, footage also includes whoever was riding the Goldwing, lighting up the rear a bit, which nearly resulted in me sending the vid to AFV cos he nearly have stacked it!
