    Nice. Didn't know you had a trumf, Dave.

    How'd you find out about these things? Looks good with a mixture of blatting round the countryside and playing with cones. Big ups to the big hairy geezer on a postie bike too

    What's the deal with them all on the NZ Post bikes indoors?

    Yah mate - my Tbrid has 125,000km up. But I used the Scrambler Demo for the weekend - delivered it for the boys to try and got to do a 1500km tour on it for KR.

    Absolutely loved it btw - great bike for the conditions here now.

    The Postie bikes was part of the training theme for the day. That bloke is the rider trainer for the posties and the two cops are the senior MC trainer guys.

    Then we went for a ride and had a party afterwards.

    Huge weekend.

    Join Riders Assn of Triumph (RAT) thru a Triumph dealer (eg Wgtn Motorcycle Centre) or thru the the Triumph Website www.triumph.co.nz which links to the UK site. Just need the VIN number of your bike, which is under the seat.
    Wgtn RATs have monthly drinks at the Sandbar, a monthly ride, and twice a year they have a national "Raid" ie rally.

    I went to the Fri night dinner at the Solway but couldnt attend the rest of the weekend to to other commitments.

    Nice to put the face to the name, Big Dave.
    Experience......something you get just after you needed it

    Nice name - shame about the face.
    Sorry I didn't get to catch up more - some of the welly crew and I go back a few years and I've missed the last few raids - so was yappin' in overtime.
    (All about me of course.)

    And I can always harass you here.

    How'd y' know it was me? Yeah, guy waved but I didn't think it'd be you cos I didn't think you had a high zorst bike. Couldn't stop I was on a mission against the clock , under orders from Supreme Command (AKA 'er indoors)
