Welcome to Kiwi Biker.
Been lurking long enough to know there is a wealth of info hidden in amongst the pages of crap. Good luck finding what you are looking for.

Another Chcher, welcome

Welcome!!!

Welcome to KB! Sounds like you've done some epic trips over the summer, awesome stuff. Still plenty more to do though eh. I was talking to a guy yesterday who reckons that if you ride up through Lake Sumner and follow the old Maori trail, you can get to the West Coast.... I really must get a dual purpose bike

**laRIKin** · 27th May 2007, 08:59

Well you took you time haven't you.

Hope you are fit and well (and the bike) as we have not seen you for a while.

Welcome (from both of us) to the nut house and get a large can on Bull Shit Repellent.

Hope to catch up with you again soon.
