Hey lazerracer. Did you start out on a TS90? I remember riding with a "Dave" on one out the back of Paraparaumu, I would have had a TS100 (Yellow) back then....

Hi phil no it probably wasnt me i had a TS 250 before the TM my first bike was a Yamaha 100 twin i cant recall the model but it had twin upswept chrome pipes, i use to hang around with brent goddard he was an apprentice at wellington motorcycles when they were in bond street when they first opened,i think brent raced a RH250 also a guy JEFF SHAW he had a TS400 and he worked for motor rebores in martin square. I use to cram my tm 250 into the back of my HC viva station wagon and tie the hatch down with half the bike hanging out the back and off id go to peka peka
Cheers DAVE

Hi Dave, sorry don't know what Thunder will be like, we haven't been there yet. We are aiming to get there soon though as my 18yr old daughter has expressed an interest in learning to ride and the 'big flat paddock' sounds just right for her.... It also appeals that of the four of us riding I'm the only male = cheap day out.......
