    Need more practice with it? I'm sure we can go for a ride somewhere and do some!

    Coming up from Wanganui would be a decent ride to make a ride up here! Actually come to think of it, I haven't been to Wanganui on my little ol'Hornet yet!

    Will have to pull out my motorcycling atlas and mark in the spots I have done! (hmm South Island is unexplored! )

    Everyone needs an odd one out to laugh at. Especially a slower one!
    Nah, no worries mate, I ride slow most of the time so you would end up being faster than me! And actually the main reason to have you along would be to make our Hornets look even better!

    "Daddy, those other bikes look kewl - but there is an odd one out, is that like the uncool kid tagging along?"
    "Hush son, those are bikers, they might beat us up and want to date your sister"
    "Eeeew daddy! Sis is only 13!"
    "That's never stopped bikers before, I should know, I was one....and that "sis" was your mum! Fark, I should have kept riding..."

    Oh mate, nice. I saw that for sale. Hope it rides well.

    Thanks for all the great comments. I'm thinking of having myself put into a coma until next friday so i don't have to actually wait until then to go and get it.

    9 days and counting....

    I agree, all the hornet riders need to go on a ride. Justin please organise one . I think he did try to organise one earlier on, but that fell through didnt it Justin? We need more hornets!

    Did someone mention a ride?

    Hmmm methinks a little ol'Hornet organised ride is in order .... (pure blatant discrimination that is!)

    Holy shit I knew you rode a lot but that's insane (in a good way). I'm hoping to crack 12500km in my first year. Done 5k in 6 months but it's been winter and I had a break while I broke my shoulder.

    Might be easier to measure your riding by the number of new chains and tyres!

    "How many k's did you do last year?"
    "Oh you know.. 3 fronts, 6 rears and a half dozen chain's worth..."
