    Shit might have to clean Gerty specially for the ride. If the weathers off this side of the gorge can we run away a play over in Hawkes Bay?

    Here is a link to what happened.

    At the moment I'm not sure what's going to happen with the bike (whether they're going to write it off or what...) but... I've just signed a purchase agreement for a cbr250 anyway... hehe it has sooo much more power than the ZZR250 and hell turns a lot better and U turns even easier... I figure if they don't write the ZZR250 off I'll just sell it... Anyone looking for a decent 250? I've got pirelli sport demons on it, and new sprokets and chain when I got it along with chain oiler...

    Once in a while you jump on your bike and the weather is fantastic and the roads are dry and you are in the zone and everything feels fantastic.

    Today was one of those days. A quick trip up to apiti like planned and then off on a wander. I only wish I took my camera cause there was some awesome views. Stopped at the mangaweka dam which was interesting. Bonez took us for a short bush walk to see the way dams used to be built.

    Meanie needs a sports bike cause is now missing heatshields from his muffler from scrubbing them on the ground.

    Fantastic day for first day of daylight savings

    Got home. Fuck there's still at least 4hrs of daylight riding time left. Then saw Connie had started weeding the front garden and thought "better not". The GB
    ran like a top. Though must get the top end seen to at some stage.

    Thought I'd do you a favour and stay away just to see if the rain theory worked.

    Thinking of changing my handle to Rainman. If it rains on the next ride I go on I will.

    Glad you had a good ride.

    Still eventfull. Meanie managed to scrape his pipes so much an exhaust heatshield mount broke, releasing the shield to the wild. Oh and cowbozy pretended to be a stunt rider on a rather sharp corner the Gb just sailed around.
