    Good write up & pics Wolf. The XT group would love the lingo help.

    You know you have only a few choices now.
    A to get a sidechair for the cubs
    B Another XT for SJ & C get a babysitter.

    Montana Tracy reckoned the soundbites were "a hoot". Blue has been practising Maori pronunciation.

    Don't really see a side car fitting on the XT so the second XT and the babysitter seem the most practical solutions.

    Hi there

    Yes I agree it was a good writeup

    Wolf if you are about on the weekend of the 26th & 27th August, let me know, I maybe heading away for a few days and it would be good to catch up for a day or two of riding.

    Not sure where I am going yet, but will decide soon.

    Cheers Scott

    I'm sure I can organise to be about for at least part of that weekend if you're heading up. Hope you're OK with riding slow

    Haha - That will make two of us

    I will be on the 250, and a novice at that too
    So it could become NZ's slowest adventure ride.......

    Trailer. Sorted. Mr Motu was at one point contemplating fitting his strange sidebox thing onto his XT5 1/2 .

    So on one hand he could give you the money for the licence, and have to stay home with cubs while you're out on YOUR bike having fun.

    Or... He could not give you the money. Leave you at home (or bring you in as a sweeper) and continue to "test" your bike. Making sure it stays in good well run shape for that day when you do have your licence.
