And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

The only reason I only ride in the Iron man Class is I have no friends left to enter the two man events,
my own fault really.
Really? From what the chaps I know at the local Fire Station tell me, a 17 hour shift comprises 2 hours at the gym, 3 hours cleaning and maintaining the gear, 3 hours playing cards or pool, and 8 hours sleep...Originally Posted by Firefight
Hope you didn't have a rough day and end up actually firefighting for 17 hours straight. That's gotta be a downside to what looks to be a great job from the outside...
Hope you get a nice ride in once you wake up. It's lovely down here today.

Your right about cards and pool, most fire stations in NZ do that,We have to do something to pass the time till some dumbshit wraps his car around a power pole.
.
We also have to complete a certain amount of training every week, and of course there always KB to pass the time away, we also partake of very large very scrummy meals, and from time to time we have to study anatomy videos.![]()
if you know what I mean>
.
Another intersting job we do is provide coffee and shelter for poorMr
who pop in from time to time.
So yes I guess from the outside it may look a "great Job", In fact the more I think of it, It is a great job!!

Sounds like you do things the same way up in Auckland as they do down here.
One of my good mates, Matt, works in Trentham Fire Station.
It's a job I'd like to do, despite the bad stuff. Just a pity about me being unfit and all.....
