    An OLD noooby (GrayWolf)

    Greeetings and Salutations from a crusty old bugger....... Well only 50 but crusty anyway!!!!
    Names David, I live in the Hutt Valley, Yeh I know, someone has to!
    About me,
    English born, NZ'er for 16years, 15 of which were down the deep south. OMG those roads
    I've ridden for 30+ years, first 9 I rode in the UK, summer and winter! After that I admit it, I semi-defected and learnt to drive a tin top. Bikes have always been my main transport, so I guess I'm a 'seasoned' rider? (beaten up, leathery, wrinkly and smells of bike oil/grease).
    Current ride is an FJ1200 and love it, I think it's close to the 'ideal' bike for NZ roads. I'm learning the various 'rides' localy, but hope to meet up with a few Wellingtonians on here, for some company.
    Anyway, thats enough about me,
    C ya

    Welcome along, enjoy the FJ, great bikes.
    Don't take anything seriously on here, it almost always isn't meant that way! lol

    sadly I'm dropping a neighbour at the Wellywood airport at 11:30am, so I can't make the ride. Thanks for the invite though!

    Welcome to the madhouse.
    Don't believe the stories of brilliant roads in Hawkes Bay - they're terrible. We only ride them cos 'someone has to'...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Welcome to KB David.

    Take everything with a pinch of salt around here, but certainly hook up with the locals for the rides.
    Great wheels, by the way!

    Hello and welcome Graywolf...

    have fun in the madhouse, and the Welly KB crew is a definitely awesome lot. I'm sure you'll have lots of fun there.
