    What have I told you. Its not what you have, but how you use it.
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    I'll be heading over on Saturday with a bunch of regulars I ride with. I must warn you guys that the highway patrol have been setting up speed traps on Bank Peninsula recently. A friend of mine was driving his car through Governors Bay a couple of weekends ago and came across a guy on a late model GXSR "helping Police with their enquiries". My advice is to stick to the speed limits.

    Hey Felicks, who took that picture of you on the SV? Was it a professional photographer????

    ...you'd be a bloody plonker wouldn't you - somehow you just managed to push the button at the right time!

    For those that don't know it was taken about 3 months ago just west of the Homer Tunnel on the zig-zags as you come up from Milford Sound. Beautiful country that (and we had good weather too otherwise I wouldn't have been going that quick around the corner). Actually just after the shot was taken I hit some ripples on the road which promptly removed the smile from my face for a few minutes!!
