Giving it a rest for a bit eh.....

Perhaps get some of those "demerit" thingys.

Everyone else has them and they sound like fun.

Question: How heavy are they? If you have to carry them around with you, one obviously dosen't want to load up the bike too much and lower the power to weight ratio.

I thought they were good, like de-restricting, or de-baffling.

Only hard core bikers get de-merited.

Goals for 2009?

Run-in one's first-ever bought from new motorcycle in January.

Sell the world's best FJR1300T to a suitably screened discerning buyer.

Successfully circumnavigate the South Island counterclockwisely in March.

Complete successfully one's fifth Grand Challenge in October.

At all other times have a load of shits and giggles whilst out riding.

Be here to post one's goals for 2010 in 365-days time.
