    ......... jeez ...... thats the last time I get colapop to convince me to ride back up to see him! I'm trying to be incognito!

    Just trying to make up for all those lost years when I wasn't riding! Mutter mumble mutter ... and trying to collect as many bikes as I can in the interim ... rhubarb rhubarb ... and meeting as many kewl peeps as I can ... gnash gnash ... and trying to keep it all rubber side down ow ... burp burp ...

    I'm going back to teaching my kids how not to swallow their erasers and reminding them that once they leave, they can be arrested for their usual behaviours!

    Too late, as of last count there is 40 odd riders cruising the highways and biways of NZ with intercoms searching for the GI and his hornet, back up vehical with new rubber and gas following !
    There's no stopping it now !!!
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    gijoe1313 gets my vote too. Whether it's telling me to come for a ride, for an ice cream to Hamilton, or getting me to go for a ride with him to eat weird asian shit, it's always riding.

    He also rides so much that he forgets to put gas in his bikes.

    >>>>>VIDEO EVIDENCE<<<<<

    Upon ending a nice ride around the Maraetai loop, a certain camo ninja was far too excited to go for a ride on the working-again 2 smoker, that he forgot to top up with gas. (Watch the end for proof!!!)




    EVIDENCE PART TWO

    The same certain camo ninja pushed me onto his a100 while I video logged the ride, only to find out a minute or so up the road, that it has no gas in it!!! I push it back to his house dripping in sweat, welcomed by a gijoe1313 and a jeaves laughing their asses off.




    However, despite his short comings () he is a great friend and one I truly value, will always go the extra mile (usually on his bike) for anyone. A top bloke and definitely the ridiest of riders!

    So how's the overbored RD coming along?
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    Man 97000kms on a 250 that's amazing... Go GI
    I've done some big mileage in a hmv where I didn't have to pay for the running costs. But that many ks on a 250, I have to take my hat off to you. Good on ya

    *sigh* lemme reiterate, I've only done 70000km on the hornet and 15000km on Daisy ...

    And I think there are some KBers who have done as many kms as that on their chew fiddies (ok albeit not in 1 year ) I'm aspiring to the heights that guys like Mr Merde have done ... massive milage, which leaves even me

    Anyway, any excuse for a ride I say ... and damn, reading this thread just wants me to ride Pippi out the front gates of school and see what the pies are like in Raetihi!

    Yeop, hes a keen one that GI.

    I remember one of the first 250 coro loops i did, Gijoe was coming but decided to do the loop the day before aswell!!!

    One of the few riders i know of that are more concerned about enjoying the ride than their chicken strips, speed etc.

    Keep it up.

    It is well you are not a maths teacher!! Add to the 85,000 you admit to the k's you've done on other bikes... and your stated dersire to run the ol' hornet to get her back to 21,000k's... and there you have it folks!! He will achieve over 100,000 klicks before too long I'm sure...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.

    we will remember them
