    New rider. Taranaki lad now in Hamilton

    Hey everyone. Just got myself a 92 Honda CBR250RR, use to ride a Suzuki GS125 but my new baby has just put a whole new dimension on riding for me.
    I had no idea i could love a vehicle so much!! but i guess you all know what i mean huh. I look forward to getting into the two wheel comunity and hopefully goin on some group rides.

    Welcome!

    Hi there! I know you'lll love your CBR - my brother cherished his until he upgraded to a blade. Welcome to kb and I know what you mean about loving your ride (just try not to lose too much sleep over it!)

    May your rides be safe and fun!

    Hahahaha i do actually wake up and glance out the window, partially to see shes still there but mainly just the check out her sexy curves.

    Ive been checking out the site for hours now... must say its an awsome resource for a newbie and y'all seem like a great bunch. After reading a bunch of other posts I feel i should expand on my introduction.... just puttn it out there.

    The name is Zac, im a 22 year old male student (Bachelor of Sport and exercise science) also working as a doorman at a local bar. Lived the past 20 years in New Plymouth untill moving to Hamilton to do the study thing. As far as riding experience goes... Ive enjoyed many years of thrashing offroaders around paddocks and trails. Im on my second road bike now still getting to know my new rocket, purchased a week ago.
    Interests = Riding, computers, music, guitar, martial arts, snowboarding blah blah.

    These track days i hear mentioned in other posts are most appealing to me. Any details about when, where, and cost of such events would be greatly appreciated for i would love to test both mine and my bikes limits.

    Thats all for now

    Welcome and try a ride out to the Okoroire Pub near Tirau on a Sunday afternoon. Less than an hour from Hamilton and lots of bikers congregate in a lovely country setting. You can also blast up to the top of the Kaimai Range which is only a few minutes away.

    over the divi to raglan is a good spinn (I have a feeling warr is doing that right now .. .bastard !!! )

    north west of hamilton around Te Kowhai, is nice easy riding with a coupld of corners good to warm up on.

    Back road to Otorohonga (sp?) is always a favourite

    And just incase you can't guess .. I'm out west

    And we can talk a lot of shite too. Welcome to KB. I'm up here with the Norfland crew in Whangarei. Havent managed to get down your way at all but that changes 1st weekend November as we will cruise through to the Taupo track day. Check out your quick tab on your home page for upcoming events.
    Just a couple of things, DONT CALL YOUR BIKE A VEHICLE, please? Just doesnt sound right. And as wysper so wisely said, not too much knee down on the keyboard the rides are always awesome, people are great bikes are all stunning in their own way Enjoy your ride
