    Still its better to have you company than "ah I don't have the challenge bike so i quit" thing


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Hooray, finally I got dispensation from the Board of Trustees and the Principal to do this CCC ride!

    So now its all bona fide, I'm going to go full steam ahead and start prepping Pippi and myself for the trip!

    Hmmm also have to pick up the other A100 this weekend as well!

    Woot?
    I'd certainly say Rawberry is an appropriately inappropriate beast for such an intrepid journey. Plus we cant have the organiser not come along after all the effort!

    Due to health reasons I'm not able to go on the trip, I wish I could! But my a100 should be all sparkly and running by CC rolls around.
    You're more than welcome to take the a100 as your bike on the journey!

    Can't have the organiser without a bike for the adventure now, can we?

    I'll probably be Donor's apprentice spannerererer on the day anyway, incase bike bits fall off any of the bikes!

    Has the entry cost been decided? I need to know if I can afford to go... got the 250cc west cape tour the weekend before this.

    I've learnt to hide the pain inside, open the throttle and ride away.

    Everything that needs to get her up and running is already ordered and cheap as chips. After that it just needs wof/reg and it's all go. gijoe1313 reckons it'll be all ready well before the ride date.
    You're doing a big job organising this, it's only fair you have a bike to ride!

    I'm considering just pulling the rear spark plug off, cos the VTR runs like a dog on one cylinder

    Hey boys and girls, just a quick note from me.
    I'm currently workin down in New Plymouth all week for the next approx six weeks, and have no cellphones and no KB access on site, so am out of contact. I am still in for the challenge no matter what, and no matter the cost (as i'm sure there will no doubt be a week or so before a final hurrah of "who is definitely in", whilst i am out of communication)

    I will (as currently planned) be working down there the week of the challenge, leaving to drive back to Auckland on the afternoon before. But rest assured fellow adventurers, i shall appear through the mist and fog on yonder morn' to take up the challenge, yarr! (why do i always think pirates when i think of adventure ho? hrm, i really should see a shrink...)

    Pip pip cheerio!

    Sorry folks. I have to pull out.

    Just spent a week and a half in Wellington, and my bank account has taken a pummeling.

    Massively gutted.
