    hmmm ... you know, on a week day, i'll see at least 15, all heading in the same direction, funny that, we are all going to work .. LOL.

    Next time you ride up this way, let us all know, that way you are sure to see more bikes, or you could make a special effort to come to the wespac chopper ride, there will be plenty of rides for you to drool over there

    I always see a few other bikes on the way to and from work. There are a fair few of us up here...

    And I've never understood why people waste their time on lattes. You can't get anywhere near enough caffeine in the cup if you fill it up with milk

    Zackly so. I'll have a latte, only hold the milk.
    A latte cup filled with 20 espresso shots, that'll do nicely
    No I am not a Pom - I just sound like one ...

    I used to work with a lady from Bucks Beach. Really great lady. Funny now that I think about it, she had a son, (apparently he would come up to visit a lot and eat everything in the fridge and never offer to pay for it, as I guess he had a hard time keeping a job) that rode a bike and lived in welly... Hmmm.... Probably just a coincidence, as welly's SO big (compared to Gore) and as you said, there are SO many bikers there (seeing as how the population is SO big), seeing how the weather is always SO much better (what's a southwester?) than Auckland...

    Carry on....
    Ride, eat, sleep, repeat!

    Auckland has a secret roster system for unloading the ship that brings the coffee in.
    All bikers were on the roster to unload the sacks by forming a human chain.

    There was a strong rumour about "some fucker" riding around and not doing his bit by helping out.
