Good on ya mate,

I'm sure you'll get sorted and hopefully in time for summer

Take care, ride safe and eat pies

Hello and welcome from the mighty waikato! And well done for looking for another bike.

Just take your time and only do what you feel comfortable doing, you'll get there

If I were you, I would recommend jumping on a KB thread from your area and checking out who your mentor's are (me shows next to their name) and see if you can join in on a ride with them for some guidance or just plain support.

Best of luck and most of all - HAVE FUN!

[QUOTE=sels1;1790866]Scan Trade Me, the whole country is your marketplace. You can have a bike shipped down to you from anywhere via BikeTranz. Or a KBer may volunteer to ride it down for you, or at least check it out on your behalf - dont be afraid to ask.

Ditto- after a long layoff i got my first bike sent from Holeshot in Auckland and the current one from Chicago. A little extreme but you get the point. Good luck.
