    Sunday 10th September - Where Did You Ride Today?

    Good run with Drum through Whitemans Valley [WV] out to Maymorn and Te Marua then back over Mangaroa Hill thru WV back to Silverstream. Congrats Drum on the new arrival.

    Then second run with Mentor through WV to Te Marua out along Akatarawa Road to Staglands back over Mangaroa Hill, WV, Silverstream and home. Thanks Uncle B for your review of my riding today.

    Heads Up and Enjoy

    Maiden voyage of the TZR today, did a nice long run aswell which was lovely. Clear weather the entire way (I love www.metvuw.com) from Howick -> Whitford -> Maraetai -> Clevedon (for ice-cream) and then all the way back. It was about 58km which isn't bad for my first time on the streets now is it? Oh yeah, got home about 15 minutes before the sky decided to fall again. Booya!

    Went from Tawa, around Pauatahanui Inlet, over Haywards, up to Caltex, over Taka's to Carterton, back to Martinborough. Had a coffee at the FF. Back up to the top of the Taka's, back down to Featherston, back over the Taka's, over Haywards, around the Inlet and back to Tawa.
    Just a little Sunday morning jaunt.
    Bloody cold at the top and not many out.
    HP busy setting up on the side of the road, about halfway down on the Featherston side. Hope everyone going over didn't contribute to Helen's holiday fund today.
    I'm only wearing black until they develop something darker

    the R6 travelled approx 3m from the back of Frostys van into my garage, finally home after its voyage back from Taupo race track.

    Nice schnauzer buckbuck

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Down SH1 to Taupo for lunch and then back to Tokoroa via Poehepe Road and Whakamaru. A bit drizzly in places and cool but any quality time on 2 wheels is well worthwhile. Clearly, other bikers didn't agree as I only saw one other bike on the 160 km round trip!

    Went for a ride yesterday morning over the Summit Road and Gebbies Pass, planning to have a look round the south side of Banks Peninsula and get some landscape photos, but the weather was crap - no rain, but I was riding through low cloud on the summit road and continuing low overcast over the peninsula. I went as far as Birdlings flat, had a wee play in the shingle, then chucked it in and went home. I still enjoyed my time on the bike, just didn't get the pics I was after - oh well, another day.

    Wouldn't you know it, perfect weather for photos and riding today - blue skies and no wind. But, I'd promised to spend some the day with "her indoors" today, so we went for a walk from Taylors Mistake to Godley Head and back - that's about 2.5 hours walking in the hills - great weather for that too
    The views expressed above may not match yours - But that's the reason my Dad went to war - wasn't it?
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, .... but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,... shouting "man, what a ride"!!!

    Nowhere. Went away for the weekend and had to take the car.
    Did go and play mini-golf this afternoon though but couldn't play the 18th hole as the wee boy (5yrs?) had tried to get the ball out of the final hole and got his arm stuck in the tube that the ball returns to the caddy-shack in. Dad tried to pull the boy out and finished up popping the boys shoulder out (no shit) without actually freeing the wee fella. When we left they were waiting for the fire brigade to arrive to see what they could do.
