Hey everyone my names Mark and ive just gotten back into riding a couple of months ago and got my licence last month.
Ive been on kiwibiker a few times to check it out.
I havnt got a bike just at the moment but am buying a 1996 Honda Magna 250 cruiser in a couple of weeks and am hoping to catch up with other riders in canterbury and go for rides and just basically have as much fun as i can when im riding.

Catch ya guys later and hope to ride with yas soon
Mark

went on a couple of rides to the hurunui pub back in my younger days (from chch)

you'll have to take a squirt through the inland road and the leader road when you're back on 2 wheels....awesome tracks

There used to be a few Thunder Ralleys at the Huruni pub. Been to a few. Choice spot.
