    December Kiwi Rider

    Just went over and picked up the December edition from the pre-delivery stock.
    Good read. My Sprint ST test, XB12X quick spin and new Kit articles.
    (Hey - it's all about me!) - Mackay's Repsol Blade test, several trials bikes, Moroney's fiction piece Pt4 - Racing dave on a Deuce and a letter to the Ed from Lou that will have the 4wd'ers hopping.
    Subscribers should get it tomorrow - on the stands later in the week.
    It's a good'n.
    Do you believe it's another month goooooone!

    You should see Lou in case you need a bigger helmet

    Nice work, though Dave. You put together quite a readable article.

    I hear ya.
    OK - I'll tell how I got to do it in a new thread - but I have been caught a bit short with this edition hitting the letterboxes a few days early. (err than I expected)
    i'm just building the mini-site for the motomail christmas specials (some cool stuff too) but we have advertised 'visit now' in KR.
    I need to get that knocked together first. Gunna be an all nighter.

    Good read guys.

    I found the Triumph Sprint Model history pics really interesting.
    Nice to see how a bike has devolped through the years.
    Would like to see that done with other bike models too.

    Hey Dave, I wrote up the diary of my Austria by Supermoto trip the other day, & I've got a few pics. I'm keen to knock out an article for you guys, how many words should I prune it down to?

    Cheers

    Our e-mail addresses are on the website (kiwirider.co.nz) and in the mag. E-mail it to the editor and it will either be put in the bin or considered. If it is then deemed suitable, it will be pruned to the correct length.
