    Then there is the ride down the beach at Houhora......(best video to music, that one...) I recall three riders hitting that beach a little while ago.
    Plus a few others...
    Loose plans, but I will be keeping away from local haunts...
    Its possible I could ride some of that with you, you could drop in on your way for a cupa (since you pretty much ride past my door on the way) and we could discuss

    If you think its to far off topic contact me here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...venture-Rides)

    Would love to do that again and get right down to Poutu Point and have a go at getting up to the lighthouse but my health isn't likely to be up to it for a while yet unfortunately.

    Cool, the one arm bandit will be there.

    I need some more practice with drinking with my left hand
    I have been practicing hard for the last few months but I am not sure that i have got it right yet

    Practice makes perfect

    So I left home at 5.30 and there was a thunder storm with lightening over by Te Pahu. On the way in I saw there was another storm coming in from Morrinsville. By the time I got to the gas station on Lincoln Street it was tipping down.

    So against my better judgement I kept going to the club. Igot there about five to six and sheltered from what I assumed was some sort of publicity stunt for Mr Crowe's new movie. Much to my surprise in the next few minutes two guys turned up. One was on a 1200GS and the other was on a F650 Scarver!


    So I told Murray and Barry that they were now officially hard bastards (well 'ard!), and sent them home.
    The rest of you cahnts are wimps...
