    My racevan sits at my place except to go to race meetings.
    The setup is - high roofed Van,tiedowns,tiedown points,and ramp.
    It is available for KBers to use --Be it to pickup a busted bike or to transport a bike for work.or even to help shift house
    RULES for its use are simple --check the water and oil before use. Return the van with more gasthan it had when you took it.

    The latest addition is a 7x4 trailer. It DEFINITELY takes an average bike no problems it has tie down points aplently,Lights etc.
    Same rules apply --break it-fix it etc etc
    hats of to you frosty very generous of you

    In a Frosty gesture...

    I have a trailer that is good for a sportsbike, has a big plastic container on the front, and has a low tail (designed for carrying jetskis, but I wouldn't advise riding up the trailer like you would on a ski).

    Can be used for emergencies, and recoveries, but not for moving house (not really suitable). Reg/WoF'd.

    PM me.
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    The serious answer, Auckland's North Shore.

    The flippant answer is: depends who's asking. If you're wearing blue and I just did something bad, not here, and it wasn't me; but if you're female and incredibly kinky, then the answer is wherever you tell me to be
