I'll leave that to Chris to do.

You're a legend Annette...12000km before your first feet change! Damn, I have only done 3500 on the Strada's but was telling Sir D I havent been on the bike as much as I would like with competitions and the holiday season BUT will be making up for the lost time soon enough.

I will be taking up Sir D's advice regarding my next tire and give the PP's a go, they certainly sound like the shizzle!!!

It could have been from over that way but we have done a few runs through the conecting Hikawai and over the Tairua hill mate (check out the kauri inone of the clips)

I thought K would like that one....its actually quite fitting G. K can stand for...Kaumatua...man K is gonna kick my butt when he hears about this one. Well its either him as the Tauranga Kaumatua or Sir DMNTD...

Went around some of the bike shops yesterday aswell, sat on a few bikes, but there seems to be one standout...

The Yamaha XTX660 Supermotard!

Will try to make one of these Thursday night meets. I'm on a black XT660X, name's John.

Ciao

Would be great to see you and the XTX there!, and hear what you think of it.
