I've been called a lot of things, but never a golden boy.

New bike will have to wait. Won't get much riding in over winter so might as well wait until spring. Poor little DRZ's going to get a thrashing on the invasion. I'll have to treat it nicely (yeah right).

I don't even see the carpet at my end of the business. I could get you some pretty coloured wool though.

Yeah. Trailer to Welly (more because of the late trip home on Sunday night. I think I'll be over riding by the time I get back to Welly). Cost about $10 a day to park car at terminal. Wheel bike off trailer and onto ferry. Don't even have to kit up.

Just found out I've got a meeting in Christchurch on the Wednesday.

mate, you could park the car at my place for free if the trailer isn't long (Short driveway). 10 minutes in a straight line on the motorway to the terminal. You literally turn off the end of my street onto the motorway.

Bart, why don't you drop the car & trailer round here (Johnsonville) then ride down to the terminal. Won't be in the way - won't be any drivers here for the next 3 days!!!

I love the SR244 Shinko/Golden Boy rears.
Very smooth, no surprises tyre.

Fine in the snow up Altimarloch, good in gravel, good on seal, good in the wet...

Lets go when leaned over on the gas, but nicely.

Thanks guys. I'll have a think about it. Big car, small trailer.

[junkmanjoe]

you could put the trailer in the boot to save space.
