    Wellington Newbie

    Thought I better say a proper hello now I've finally got a bike on the way! After riding trials bikes for years I though I'd try road riding when I got to NZ, so here goes! After much deliberation (and scaring myself silly on a Hornet/Blade/VTR!) I've ordered a new ER6n today, pick it up on Sat

    Looking forward to meeting some of you guys on Wellington rides in the near future

    Good stuff. Slingshot has organised one for Oct called the 'Great KBer ride' or something.

    Will keep an eye out for you on the roads.

    Welcome Matt, keep an eye out in the site for the Cruisie Wednesday Night Ride which will be starting again soon (I think sometine around Daylight Savings). As the name states, it cruisie, and also a great way to meet some of the awesome motorbike enthusiasts on KB!

    Welcome aboard Matt. You will find this Welly crew a friendly bunch. Plenty for good rides to be had around here
    May the road rise up to meet you.
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face.
