    True rider or girl's blouse in today's weather?

    So who was out riding in the crappy weather today and who was being a girl’s blouse, ummm…like me?

    Pissing down up this way, I was just wondering what to have for lunch and bugger me; get a call from Scracha – he’s doing the Coro Loop and has just arrived in Coromandel!

    A quick stop-off for home-made soup and scones and then off in the rain again with a recommendation to call in at the Coromandel Smoking Company for some smoked fish for tea. This guy is a true biker – out in all conditions for the sheer love of riding …. and giving lie to the common belief that Ducati riders are fair weather posers, hehe (or a misplaced belief in waterproof Ducati electrics).

    Good on you Steevie and catch you in better weather next time!

    Photos taken a few minutes ago attached as proof that at least one biker was on the Coro Loop today!

    I'll admit to being a soft-cock today.
    I have yet to devise a way of getting a sufficient amount of firewood to mums' place on the F-117, or for getting a waterblaster home on it.
    Does being up to 11pm last night working on the bike offset this?

    CB is off on a ride, it's 17 degrees, dry, sunny and a mild breeze.

    So one would have to be a real girls blouse to think the weather was too bad for a ride down here..
