Intro from a Newbie (JHolmes)

[JHolmes]

Hi Everyone.
Jay is my name and I'm from Australia (don't shoot me for that) I'm coming over there soon for a holiday and would like to meet as many of you as I can (online) and hopefully make some friends.

I have the best time riding my GSXR 1000 around here in Victoria and enjoy having a pillion on the back every now and then.
Riding fast is my style and I cant help that, road raced from a young age and so looking forward very much to riding in NZ and maybe hooking up with people from this group.

[fatzx10r]

welcome jay, what part of the contry are you heading too?

[KrazyGixxerBoy]

Welcome mate! I'm not sure what part of the contry you're heading to but whereever you go, rest assured there will be a lot of like minded people ready to go cruising! If you're coming to Wellington (as you probably should!) flick us a PM and we can catch up. There's a good group of KB'ers in Wellington that are always keen on a ride....

[JHolmes]

Thanks for the Welcome guy's. Cheers

My friend wants to go back to the Sth Island to do some hiking, mountains I think she said

Me I'm thinking some sports bike riding would be more what I want to do

[JHolmes]

welcome jay, what part of the contry are you heading too?

Sth Island is what we are going to do, early next year

kev, its been shit here too, never been so cold as I have been this year

Not a good idea to ask me to bring warm weather, everywhere I go it rains.

And no, fathers name is not sherlock lol.

PS Answering all to get my posts up so I can PM

Hi Jay

We're in the Hawkes Bay. Awesome roads for going quick and windy through corners. Give us a holla if you come up this way, happy to have you join us for rides too.

Cheers

[JHolmes]

I haven't worked out a route yet, but my friend still seems to think that I will be hiking

Let me put it this way...........she can hike and I will ride

Sounds good to me and fair lol

You can see why I am a single man now cant you

Hi Jay and welcome.

You need to tell your friend to get the hiking out of her system nice and early in the year, as the South Island gets pretty cold as the year moves on.

Auckland has been 'uckin brill for a while now.

Kiwi riding is great. You'll love it, even if you pillion doesn't see sense.
