    Thumbs up Hows it going down there?

    Just popped in to say hello, I hang about on the UK GS owners site normally but thought I might sample a few thoughts and ideas from elsewhere.

    Hope you don't mind a few posts from the other side of the world.

    Cheers,

    No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.

    Not sure about a heat wave, this is England!. But I am ready for some dry tarmac and lighter evenings.

    Yeah Easter holiday is looming here so weather is bound to be wet but hey it will clear up soon as we are back at work next week. No worries it isn't that bad too often in NZ but in Wellington area we have had two crap summers in a row and hope they are behind us for a while.

    Enjoy your summer.
    Cheers

    Gidday mate,Yep the weather where I am like most of NZ at the moment is pretty crap.If it gets much worse I might tear my bike down an do some mod's Iv'e been planing for a while,That will give me about four months before the weather comes right and I have to have the bike up an running again.I was planning on riding to the bottem of the country this month but with the early snow down south I may just take my 4x4 instead.Stuff it,I never said I was tough anyway.
    So what do ya' ride,where do ya' live an how's it going.
    Cheers.

    Oops,just looked at the photo,nice bike mate.

    No, we don't mind at all, even if you are a Pom. Like me mum. I'm balancing it out by being on the UK Firestorm owners site.
    How come your picture isn't upside down, seeing as how you are on the bottom of the world?
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
