    Um - yeah! You will be the guy getting the ticket for speeding after you decide to show them what a real bike can do...

    Nah, trust me showing off is not my cup of tea - pride comes before the fall and all that.
    Definitely wasn't trying to get into a scrap about sports vs cruiser, just banking on the stereotype of all HD riders being big bad dudes out to cause trouble allowing me to slip by under the radar so to speak

    Damn, back to the drawing board then, might have to just hope that the sheer number of bikes there allows me to blend in...

    You'll be fine - strap a cardboard cutout HD onto the side and get her indoors to go potato potato a lot. Blend right in...

    Don't know if this has been posted yet but the flyer is on the web:

    http://www.wellingtonhog.co.nz/images/TOY%20RUN.JPG

    I'm pretty keen and it looks like the timing might actually work out for going to Str8's barbie after...

    http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=39654

    Besides, it bounces the thread back up to the top of the list.

    Drat - barring the intervention of the devine god of biking - Vicki and I will not be attending this event - or any other event - for some little time (sigh).

    Sorry about that - was quite looking forwards to it. On the bright side - I certainly won't be bored....

    Paul n Vicki

    Nope - The Moto Guzzi is on the blocks for some long overdue preventitive mtce. I'm being a bit anal but a ZD gearbox is a rare and valuable thing and one of the worlds leading athorities on them is offering to strip and check, re shim in exchange for beer. Nothing dramatic but i can't get her legal in time having started the project - drat. This is a long term love affair and I'm not going to damage the beast because of a rush of blood to the head.

    The Triumph - which was the designated hitter during this period of Guzziless is being truculent. No major drama but neither me or the infinately cleverer Joe can pinpoint why. Again - the potential risk of a rod through the cases vastly outweighs the pleasure of the toy run.

    Its a bugger - but my choice is to run fiddly old grump boxes - and somedays are spanners and otherdays are grins. Besides - it looks nice weather and I do have the other tank to paint as well as el mucho gardeno and if it's REAL nice - the kayaks have not had a wet bottom this season so... have FUN.. I will be...
