As long as your home by midnight, we wouldn't want anything sinister to happen

There was no potato famine in Ireland, they just forgot where they buried them

Had another great flight yesterday. Here's some pics. Of particular interest may be the ones of the East Cape!

Thanks for sharing your trip hon

It was just like going with you.......but a hell of a lot safer from this vantage point

Some of the photos above the cloud with the mount showing through are very cool!!

Would be into a ride or 2

Gave up riding in a group not long ago and left the local club(s), im a 100km/h type slow rider and found all the runs I went on were the scenario where I get left behind and seemingly held up even the 'tail end charlie' and the riders zoom off at great speed, and the ones that I did keep up with all pass on Yellows and I WONT ! So again get left behind LMAO ..... whatever happened to the quiet legal rides the groups used to have ..... so I have gone back to just a couple of us on a quiet casual ride (usually about 400-500km) but if I find a 'group' with the quiet cruise policy I might be tempted to come along.

The Feilding rides might be worth a look for you, the friday night rides also once they resume (daylight savings), there is a good spread of pace on these rides right from noobs through to pacey rider's.

Seems there are a few about that are keen on seeing the new Transformers movie on the big screen. I thought I might put this thought out there and see what happens...
How's about a wee get together before hand, perhaps a cafe and go see it en mass? Just a thought.
