    Thursday was a nice night for a wee pootle.

    The Autobarn was quite a relevation, the things people do and wear....... there is a few that cant drive either.

    Tahuna road a good alternative to those other main routes.

    Road works from Morrinsville through to the other side of Matamata

    Some signage but no sweeping of extra metal off the top. Taking signage down on Sunday.

    Loose metal at turn off from SH27 to Morrinsville, nasty.

    Could see repairs over repairs on some of the areas. Patches starting to appear mostly on left wheel track areas.

    Excellent weekend.

    I wasn't sure about the other roads so cut back to SH27.
    Ended up in a queue of about 12 cars following a horse float which could barely manage 80 k on the flat all the way along the Mamaku road.
    Wouldn't pull over - such nice considerate people still only arrived 30 seconds late - whew

    If you can check on this tread Thursday arvo as most post if they are going (well some do)

    Weather looks OK but I am short staffed this week so not sure if I will make it this week..... but weekend is looking like it might be wet so I might try to get out

    Just arrive 6:30ish and park outside the Autobahn near the BP end (if there is room) as that is where we mostly park

    this test is gonna be a giant biatch, i don't wanna rush it and i don't wanna hold y'all up either.
    If i'm not there by 7 just roll out, i've probably been beaten by the test....

    Cracked a beer, found the bolts (under other bolts not touched..... must have been shaken up)

    Now to find the rest of the parts :P Always an issue when staff have unexpected days off, all this could have been done Yesterday !

    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    Sadly I have just now returned from the Norf Shaw where my wife's bike has languished for the past 5 days, waiting for amongst other things a new front tyre.
    On the up side it's riding a lot better this week than last and it got home without needing a rest.
    So, sigh, no I'm not there this week, will be back next though.

    new tires ordered, I hope to have things under control for Thursday, Been a shocking week with a leaking hot water cylinder and blown workshop mower motor on Thursday just gone thrown in....

    No riding this weekend as I worked most of it and said farewell to an old friend who has been MIA for a year now so I will be hanging out for a ride, figures crossed all goes to plan
