South Island Road Tripping.

[inlinefour]

Well folks, its been about a decade since I've had a holiday longer that a long weekend. Come the 4th of Feb, that is all to change. Sadly the CB is going to be put into the garage and not be used for 3 whole weeks (however the next week it'll be running me up to Northland)
With the fully laiden Toyota Surf, the misses and myself we will be rolling about the South Island, stopping all over the place to enjoy the local delights.
If anyone sees a beige Surf with tinted back windows, a Taranaki Hard Core and KB stickers on the rear window, wave out :spudwave:
I'm set with all the tools to stop and help out my fellow riders and will be doing my best to allow everyone to get past
I'm just not too sure how well I'm going to handle not having my bike to ride However I've been told that I get to go on at least two rides, on rented bikes
So from the 4th I'll be outta here, no work, just fun wooooohoo
I'm doing as much as I can that run the risk of broken bones. Chopper up the mountian, MBing back down is the only one that I can remember
So take care all, once I've got my night shifts done my activity will plummet however I'll be having too much fun to care

NIce one, might see you round when you bowl off the ferry

[James Deuce]

Perfect time of year to head down there, you'll have a ball.

Have good break!

When you see those Southern roads you'll hate the 4x4. I'll keep an eye out for you from the 14th.

I agree with you lou, was down there last easter in cage and didn't really enjoy it too much and kept wishing I was on a bike, then went down earlier this month on a bike and just loved it. Only problem is the roads down there eat tyres with the ruffer chip they use.

That way, we'll be able to wake up to normal, mature thread posts...

It does 100km/hr and with the misses in tow, thats the max I can do. However Ive got a week up Northland once I return to see my boy. I'll be on my bike for that one

Does anyone know where I can hire a Fireblade?

[Mongoose]

I know you and I have had our differences but if you want 021 1118593 will get hold of me if you want to pop in sometime on your way through

Thats a very generous offer and makes me shed a tear, oh its sweat (31.6 degrees in here)(PT).
I'll stick the phone number on my cell and try and give you a whisle when we are in town, depending what time of the day it is. Cheers, just like that my faith in KBers has returned (after the hitcher affair).
For all those who would like to bad rep me, you will get your chance as I go back to normal, I'm told on late Tuesday afternoon. Fire at will, I will not retailiate, new yes resolution: "Stop being a cunt" (where is that picture?)
I know it probably sound like a coincidence, but JR is on his way back to England. He quit his job (well before he got fired, some say), came aroud with more bike parts, ranted and raved for half an hour and left. Not a happy man at the time. Sounds like all of NZ, inc me is a cunt. Some of you might agree.

Man you got a complex, anyone with the name Honda has got to be the best.

Are you passing through Wellington on the 4th so should we all stay indoors?
