Seeing as you will here on friday night, you should pop into Harringtons in Belfast to say hi to a few of us. We are having a wee sendoff for Fordy and family, from about 6pm firday night, should be a few KBers there.

And ya never know I might feel like a blat out to Ruapuna on friday arvo... if this damn bucketing down rain stops!
Damn hard to dig out stumps with this crap going on...fine time to take a bloody week off!

I haven't heard of the Sign of the 'flying' Kiwi so googled it to no avail but i know of the 'Sign of the Kiwi' at the corner of Dyers Pass and Summit Roads, is that the place your thinking of?
Google that and you get several hundred results and lots of historic pictures.

Thats the one, thanks Transalper. You coming?

**Sniper** · 9th February 2006, 09:41

I'll be around Shadow for a couple of rides.

I have a budget jacket somone could borrow, I'm not sure how safe it is though, it's a bomber jacket, it's real warm, but it would probably rip in a slide, better than nothing though, it's sort of thick suade on the outside and sheepskin on the inside.

Think I spotted something red and shiney in the back of my garage, oh yeah, must be the VFR, might have to dust it off and see if it still goes.....
