Thats a lot of riding in two days, bling to you for this one. Definitely meet the Towelronga crew while your here, will give us someone different to talk to - good idea Jacob re changing out meet night that week. What colour is the busa, is it new? not one of the new '08s by any chance?

It was just a thought since you're comin all that way and there'd be at least a hundred of us heading back to Welly on the Sunday

I would of loved to of stayed longer but my wife works weekends and i need to be home to look after the wee ones.But i will try maybe for next year.

Thats the one - i hope its as good as it looks.He seems a nice guy-very accomadating.Had a few hassles when he was washing it last week.

Gee you have to watch which website you you for booking ferry tickets-use the wrong one and you can end up paying an extra $60 for return ticket.Gorilla strap now organised for tying the bike down on the ferry.So now all set to go on the 10th Oct.Cant wait.

No worries Busa,enjoy the ride.

I hope this crap weather clears up before i leave on Tues night as i dont fancy riding all that way soaking wet.

I got mu bike from Chch and rode it to AK. It made me learn the bike alot before I came home. Well worth the time.

Mp3 player well worth it too!lol

Also the idea for the strops are a good idea. The Ferry do not care about your bike. It is up to you to strop it down. I used their gear and it is a wee bit over kill ( used to do cars!).

have fun!

Well the weather does look like it will be real crappy(joy),well it will be a good ride anyway.Will probably be even later getting into town if the roads are bad.Anyway im all set to leave tomorrow night.
