My mom told me to stay away from the PP, she said there are some funny people go there!

I am a good boy!

I love my mom I do!

She made me live with Mrs Palmer until I got married!

Some people think Mrs Palmer still pops round to see me now and then!

My mom says, how would they know!

If mrs Palmer bursts your bubble so be it.

Glorious morning here in Invercargill. So I started the bike just to let the neighbours know what they are missing. I'm good like that.

Will meet up with McJim in a hour or so and head over.

Glorious sunshine here in Riviera of the South, Shrek dropped in to pick up his camera and now the Canterbury Rabble plus the dunners ones have headed of to the rally site.

Steady flow of bike past Chez Scumdog

Got a wedding to attend

but I'll get there later.'

Me thinks someone is very lucky I had not seen this before I left of his hammock may have been booby trapped (no not boob trapped get your mind outta the gutter).

We made it there and back, the sight glass is still cloudy but I dont think it any issue with a leak from the cooling system, more the crankcase is not breathing correctly, will have to get my hands dirty to find out.

Was a great weekend, Friday night at Chez Scumdog, what great hosts, the a pootle to the sight to set up the tent etc, whilst in the middle of this a Cantab rabble lass comes rolling into camp, broken chain, I wont go into all the details but lets just say a dealer is getting a bad reputation, I hope he reads this a wakes up a little, (time will tell), anyhow props to the Suzuki dealer in Balclutha who helped with a chain, and to all the folks who lent tools and input to getting this bike running so it could be got out of the site and to a safe location (hmm Scumdog is not only hosting KB'ers but bikes as well).

I believe all had a good night, however I came home with one packed of Penguins folks, its just not right to have to carry them back home again.

Now just looking forward to the Magpie, where Kerry will be on her bike (well her bike will have functional exhaust, the rest is up to her sitting a test), and we get to spend time in the company of you all again.

Sadly I had to work a portion of saturday, (I did have friday off) and finished too late to go. But I did get to ride with some of the Canterbury crew, over the Crown range and back through to Clyde. A fine ride on a bad day. And it was a brilliant day. Good company, good weather, good roads ...

**Retroqueen** · 20th September 2009, 22:08
