    Happy birthday Kiwi Biker

    Yes, one year ago today this site was started. Some email spamming to Kiwi's at Mica Peak and I soon had some members.

    I've meet some great people and been on some good rides because of this site, so good idea wari.

    I'd like to thank all members for their support and the content they provide.

    SpankMe, it's thanks to your efforts in the first place that we've got such a great forum. We all owe you a special debt of gratitude.

    I think Spankme would prefer the 'PayPal' kinda gratitude as well?

    Well done Spank.

    With reference to "Pay Pal" and fund raising how about a mere 10cents per post for existing members? 


    User pays.


    Where do I send the cheque?

    Well done SpankMe.  If whoever it was hadn't put that kiwibiker card on my TLS parked on Queen St last Dec I would have never found this site.  I've seen a lot of forums before but this site is the most professional and well put together out of them all.

    Keep up the good work!

    I’m not worried about donations, and I certainly wouldn’t want people to think they should make one. So long as people are enjoying the site and it helps encourage more people to take up the biker lifestyle or get existing bikers to ride their bikes more (not just when its nice and sunny).

    I have always been a biker and I always will!

    Definitely a great job SpankMe and Happy Birthday. It took me until March to stumble across the site and even then I don't remember how I found the link.
    Cheers

    I found it as a link from the wima run which was from a link in kiwirider which ......... well you get the idea.

    Only negative I have found so far about this site is its horribly addictive!

    But against that its fun and informative!

    It's definitely great to finally have a decent Kiwi biker forum. I've been a member of a couple of overseas ones for a couple of years now, and it's really expensive to go on rideouts with them!


    The BBQ and various rideouts and trackdays I've attended this year have been great and I'm looking forward to more in the future.

    So here's to Kiwibikers First birthday!

    nice one SpankMe on the site and happy birthday to us all

    this site is a great place to meet fellow bike owners/riders, and a great source of info.

    keep up the good work, and when can I buy another KB shirt to replace the one I lost?

    Congrats SpankMe. Bit disappointed you didn't give a little thankyou to me there given I've been paying for the hosting and bandwidth for this site most of that year, but ah well... Must be because I'm a fair weather rider.
