I'm hoping to just have a bag or my panniers that I can strap onto the bike, a minimal amount of extra gear beyond whats required to ride.

That video is weird, I wasn't patient enough to watch it through.

Over the summer I had a few rides on my Father in Laws 12,000km GB400 which he has decided to hold on to :tears:

Was really nice, first bike with clip ons and (relatively!) rear set pegs that I've ridden, surprisingly comfortable!

As per my post in the boxers thread, a burgundy R80 was stolen from Footprints Hostel on the beach front road south of Nelson last night, see here for pics:

Call the cops if ya see it.

Cheers

Padmei, you're going to have to give it back. The gearbox would be a straight bolt up, but the shock will be way too short...

**Padmei** · 18th February 2011, 16:04

Hmmm I find it most perculiar that someone stole that. A lot of dirt bikes have gone missing over the past year which is understandable due to the type of riders who ride dirt bikes however BMWs????

It'll turn up tho

Right......If you Nelson lads wanna go then lemme know what time your heading through Mot and I'll hook up with you

Late afternoon could work, with a stop in Pohara/Takaka for tea followed by an evening fang over the hill

I'll keep an eye out Clint.... would be nice to catch the thieving scum

Y'see, the thing is.... The Aorere doesn't take long to get through, it's the ride there and back that takes the time. How does this sound......?
We will be leaving Mot/Riwaka pub at 3 heading for the Aorerere. Those who want to come too are more than welcome.
No further corespondence will be entered into on the subject....

unless I change my mind

Have you had a look on trademe for a new spacebar Padders ? Your posts are kinda taxing after several woodys
