All up, a great weekend; covered just 20 short of 1500km on the bike.

Over all a great weekend even though it started with a bit of a dampner.

Well, sitting here at Mongooses in Motueka and reading this thread - great pics Jen and glad to see names/bikes and know who is who.

Got here OK except for a total fog white-out going over the Lewis and a compression lock-up on a bend coming down the Hope Saddle.

which caused the Tequila Sunrise to do a side-step on me - shee-it these bends are slippery in the wet, be warned!!!

Staying here another two nights and then heading back for the Riviera of the South, had planned on going back via West Coast but given the amount of rain it's getting at the moment that's unlikely.

Once again, a grouse week-end and can't wait to go to next years KayBee get together.

Next year uh? so far away yet so close.
Looking forward to it where ever it may be, so many options uh.

Getting through looking at the video on me vid cam. sum good some bad, and some darn right editing room floor only.

Will try and get that sorted by say Thursday.
