    Hey skel! Paraparas and national park way sounds good to me. Was gonna head up that way at about 10-12 and just take my time with a few stops along the way. Still only running on 3 cylinders so ya should be able to keep up eh?

    That was an option...kinda depends on wether we go with the poos-man. We could go up Hastings way and come back through the PP's?

    We might have to choose our route based on weather too .

    Would be good to have you along though...you three cylinder freak (one cylinder too many) !!!

    Beware of the low-flying Madboy enjoying the climate controlled comfort of the car... with trailer. But since I haven't had a speeding ticket in a while, I think I'll take SH1.

    Don't expect me to make the coffee for y'all or provide delectable home baking either- bloody foot puts paid to so much- feel free to make your own tho-oh yes and can you make mine too please?
    (hXc can be persuaded to make coffee if offered enough of the folding stuff)
    Truly tho, you are all welcome to call in here- the more, the merrier! Its a while since we pissed the neighbour off.

    My bike would harderly piss off the most hardent environmentalist so cant promise anything. Mo is a bit offensive but then it depends on which way the wind is blowing.
    Thanks for the offer....might take you up on it if were coming through that way.

    He's REAL sensitive- can't cope with even the lowest volume of noise-anything louder than a whisper and he's on to noise control... make sure you bring lotsa mates! Better still, remove your baffles just around the corner-that should do the trick!

    Ha ha - no actually I am looking for an occasion to take it a bit further than the usual Wairarapa trip. Its just that I have several things on that weekend (including wk xmas do) and I am juggling the priorities. The weather may be a deciding factor. Will probably make the decision at the last minute.
