LOL na na na... I know a good number of Texans. Some of them I hold closer than nearly anyone here on KB (I kid you not). As a generalisation, they're GREAT people.

Bolivar Peninsular is a particular favourite area. Some people call them backwards, hicks, rednecks but.. those people simply haven't taken the time to meet and get to know them.

F'n AWESOME people.

Hey I'm not used to married women trying to grab my nuts ok? And judging by Maha, I probably don't want to let you get ahold of them.

Former Dallas Native here mate. I'll certainly recomend the Coromandel loop over The Dragon. So long as you stay way from the west coast. Too many small towns and traffic. Wich is a shame cause that side has some great corners.

you ride a Vmax .. what the hell do you know about corners other than

" i have to get off and push my bike around them..."

What do I know about corners? Lots of things. Some go left, others go to the right. Both very tricky when wet and covered in desiel.

Wow... plant a seed and let it grow come back in a couple of months and look at what we have here... efn classic...

Well I'm still looking at options for getting my bike home, seems to be a real pain in the a-hole... sea-freight is cheapest but takes of efn ever!! air-freight is running in around 1500 USD to AKL (looks like my best option at the moment)...
I'm also gonna need some help getting the head-lights to dip to the left, easiest might be to just replace the stock headlight a assembly, or are they all the same but adjustable - anyone know??

Went to The Dragon again this year, man it kicks ass... got some pix to:
The lookout over the Cherohalla Skyway:
