Yep.. Finally go to celebrate birthday #..?? (which of COUSE would happen the day KB crashed, wouldn't it!!That fucking Murphy bastard should be SHOT!!) by seriously blowing out some cobwebs.. with a wee 300k strop round the block!!!
Got a txt from one of the local lads (non kb'rs.. silly boys!!) saying "gear up we're off"!! so made a quick phone call to get kidletts organised, dusted the winter cobwebs off the old girl & blatted into town to meet the others!
Twas an absolute STUNNER of a day here in paradise, as we headed off over the Whangamoas towards Havelock. Were quite a few ice/grit signs out, but very little in the way of ice or grit YEEHAA!!! so was a good strop up & over!! Quick lunch & very much enjoyed ice cold Kahlua at Havelock, & the decision was made to head round the block for the avo!!
So headed to Renwick to refuel, then off down the Waiau Valley heading towards Nelson Lakes! Tis a great piece of road through there!! & on a cracker of a day like today, the scenery heading towards the lakes with the mountains covered in snow, was just goooooorgeous!!
Luckily.. down the valley further, the bike behind me had stopped, so I stopped to check everything was ok.. which it was.. (weak bladder syndrome apparantly) but that then put us a way behind the others.. who had most unfortunately by this time, been sprung by the local constabulary..We were all pulled over while he did his thing,
then he checked the rest of our bikes.. he asked for my wof, which was still in my wallet, being only a week old.. yippee!! (luckily he didn't ask to see the other thing..
)
Dirty deed done.. we carried on our merry way heading towards the Lakes, (knowing said car was heading back towards Blenheim & couldn't cause any more trouble...) then turned off & headed back out on the road to Nelson. If ya know this road.. it's absolute motorcycle heaven through there!!! Truely gorgeous it is!! Stopped for a regroup & liquid refreshment at the Bellgrove Tavern for a while, & discussed the politics of the aforementioned tickets, with one holder sweating a lot, at the "lack" of demerit points left to accumulate.. before a certain 2 wheeled vehicular ends up parked in the corner in disgrace!!
All in all a VERY much enjoyed day.. & much 'needed' too I might add!!! Having ones sanity saver parked up over the winter months.. doesn't do much for one's "sanity"..& I couldn't ask for a better way to spend.. belatedly celebrating me birfday!!!
