    BWAahahahahahaaaaa...

    My bannannna, son & I had a FAB ride out again today!! NordieBoy kindly took Jess on the back .. (coz I was too chicken shit in case I dropped the bike.. with it being sooo tall & me being soo short n all.. ) Headed back up through the Wairoa Gorge.. which is still a gorgeous piece of road heading in the other direction!! then rode up Ben Nevis. The road surface was rockier & more of a climb up & down than yesterday, so a bit more of 1st gear involved, heading up mostly. Heading down was pretty cool, lots of corners! couple of small lockups, so jus eased the brake on a bit earlier next corner & all good! Back on the flat my banana & I took the lead & gave the KTM a squirt.. have decided that riding on gravel feels so much better standing up on the pegs, than it does sitting down!

    I had a ball.. again!! & so did Jess.. thanks heaps for taking us Fran!! & great pics!! (oh.. & thanks for getting it started for me this morning.... )

    Have decided my next bike is DEFINITELY going to be an adventure bike!!

    hhmmm.. where to tomorrow.... anyone free...??

    You go shouting it from the rooftops like that and they'll all want to do it!!!
    I occasionally meet another biker out in the middle of nowhere now.
    It's already overcrowded!
    Sssssssshhhh!
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.
