Fair weather rider
Saying hi.
Hi there. Thought I'd check in and say hi. I'm "new" to riding, but for the second time round. Used to ride a Yamaha 650 twin, but that was years ago. This time I've got a F650GS Beemer, and love it. Can't wait to get out into the South Island countryside and enjoy the backroads again, especially the gravel! Might wait until the weather improves a bit though.

It's a hard road boy.......so try not to land on it.

GasMan - Welcome, and why wait, practice now and you will be an expert by the time spring comes. You have the bike for the conditions.
on the up
Welcome Gasman,
there's a number of us here just getting back on bikes. I've been back on bikes nearly a year now, after 15 years away.
Hope you enjoy that beemer. Sounds like just the bike for all-year-round riding up on the mainland....
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.

.Hi Gasman, welcome to the site - lots of friendly types in here.
You have some great roads in the South Island!
On another point: is there a BMW dealer in Chch now? I heard a rumour that the car/bike place on the south side of the city on the bypass had closed up shop - is that right? If so, who is doing the BM servicing? (Just curious: I used to own BM's myself, and the hubby still has an R1100S.)

Being frustrated is disagreeable.

Welcome Gasman.
I know this is a bit personal, but do you have a baked beans powered "issue" or do you own a petrol station. And if so when can we expect to see the KB discount posted??
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
