Couldn't have you heading North with a battered looking Tiger now could we?

If it’s any consolation Al, a Tiger doesn’t look entirely out of place lying down in long grass!

Come on I wanted Al to put green tape to hold the bulb holder on for cowboyz' sake.

Tiger wasn't lying down it was prowling it's next kill.

Either that or it was waiting to have its bellypan rubbed!

Oh you were right about that insurance too! Poor girl is sunk due to drunk driver, so looks like court!

The belly pan was showing off very well.

Yep thought if she had no insurance she was stuffed so to speak,as his policy if he had one wouldn't pay out,most say under influence,not necessarily over the limit.If she had 3rd party at least her company would get him to pay.

I'm out for any rides this weekend. Midnight dash in the RVR to Hastings with Connie and sis-inlaw. A death in the family ):. Have a good weekend all.

Wow now I know why you guys rave about Vinegar Hill,went there to Taihape to meet a mate at Mangaweka,in best Manawatu fashion we left at 1.15pm instead of about 11.00am,as they were later leaving and enjoying the ride down.Recieved text at Taihape saying they left Waiouru about 20min earlier,returned to his relatives home at Mangaweka and proceeded to ride home.

Two things of notice gang members don't wave back,and all others did.When stopped at lookout on Vinegar Hill and realise petrol bar drops to last it makes for fun riding,seems it had 5.5ltrs left,only bad part is 1.5 ltrs left when last bar flashes with fuel symbol.Road surface was pretty good,new stone chip well swept in most parts.

Yep it's a good run through there aye
I'd be interested to hear what sort of millage you get out of it, last time I checked mine it was 19.6km/liter so on last fuel bar you have almost 100km of juice left.
