What a fantastic Morning.

[MadDuck]

About time too. The whole "raining every single day without fail" routine was starting to become slightly old.

Dont hold ya breath...you have seen the forecast for the weekend ah?

[Mully]

I bought the bike to work yesterday despite a shitty morning. Was fine and dry all day and I was looking forward to a dry road blast home after work......stayed dry until I walked out to get on the bike.....then it bloody started to rain.....bastards!!!!!

Same here. Rode to work, got wet. Beautiful all day. Rode home, started raining not long after I left the city.

Still, the worst day riding is still better than the best day driving.

Dont hold ya breath...you have seen the forecast for the weekend ah?

Oh, gawd. I suppose it's crap again?

Bring on summer already.

[portokiwi]

So the thought of....'just keep riding' didnt cross your mind??

Mate I would have loved too, proberly would have ended up at your doorstep for breakfast lol.
No I had to turn around, Must pay the bills somehow.
On the bright side we are looking forward to our gear arriving from Portugal. Its somewhere in Europe at the moment.
looking forward to seeing what kit i still have lol. Gabbys brother his mates and my step sons dad would have raided it first.
They said 60ish days lol.

The last 3 days of sunshine were enought to drive me to distraction !
Allmost got keen enough to pull a bike out and clean it (could see disarsterous concequenses coming from such actions)

[Kiwi Graham:Me]

I left this morning for work....... i was enjoying being on the bike on a clear crisp morning....... i just soaked up the curves and the sunshine and then I relised I had gone past my work and was riding along the bays towards the city.
Had to turn around and ride back to work.
I enjoyed everymoment of that ride.... felt like it was so goo to have a bike.
Allmost ne traffic was on the road too.

Yep the ride in from West Auckland was a peach too. Leaving early today 12ish and taking the loooooooooooooooooooong way home

Blaaaardy feels like it !
Last ride was in the worst weather i ridden in for a while and that was 8 weeks ago, found a flat rear tyre next day, quick pump and ride down to the bike shop to leave it with em overnight for a new tyre fitting 7 weeks 48 hrs ago and pinged at a checkpoint for no seatbelt on way to pick it up !
The Chap with the silly grin on his face said *Ya new this was comming aye* as he handed me that bit of paper that said i wasn't to operate a vehical for 3 months from that date !

And that sucks too lol 3 months = 12 weeks you'd think, ohhhhh no 3 months over july, aug, sept = 13 fuggin weeks !

I am in penance ! SIGH
Recon it'd be easy being a monk

I enjoyed every moment of that ride.... felt like it was so goo to have a bike.
Almost new traffic was on the road too.

Same goes here. I was having such i nice ride in to wellington this morning, i parked up the bike outside my work and then i got a walk on my helmet and that's when i realised i wasn't alone.... hehehehe I forgot to drop off the wife... oh well... hehehe she ended up riding the bike to her work...

But yes very nice day in wellington.. teachers only day also so hardly new cars on the road.

You guys Nice to know I'm not the only one easily distracted, I would love to upgrade to the attention span of a goldfish.

Here's to a nice dry spring.

Dude that sucks. A trumpy should not be dormant for so long.
So you have 6 weeks to go eh? Well at this rate it might have stopped blardy raining by then.
Good for you for not breaking the law again by breaking your driving ban. It amazes me how many people I know who think nothing of driving whilst disqualified.
+1 for ya

oh and being a monk...nah mate, sucks to wear brown all day, and you dont get err... you know...lucky

Nah thats why, when i went down the shop the other week to shove em a couple hundy off my bill, i threw them the keys ! (nice to have the tyre scrubbed in as well)
tis the one in the pic thats been dormant as ya can see by the fact it's now a shelf ! Aint i good ? (insert angel here) And taking into account iv'e neglected it since i picked up another in march
Got to stop starting it there, in my drunkin states (woke up last time feeling like i'd gone down on an exhaust pipe)

Never thought i'd say this but, cant wait for the sun to farrk off again. 3 days of sun in the past 7 wks has made being a hermit easy (considering i'm lucky and couldn't class it as being monkly) but it can rain anytime it likes about now !

Whats wrong with brown ?
