Tis ok we shall look after her while she is in Auckland.... for her brief stay.

I will abanden her in Hamilton, but there are other riders taking her onto Taupo.

I am sure that she will report in from Taupo tonight.......

Tis been raining overnight... but weather is supposed to clear up for her ride back down the line... until she hits Wellington

Just hope that she has a good flight up here, wearing all her biking gear and carrying her helmet.

Not flown in years.... oh not since 1986 in fact........

Didn't think that on domestic flights, one had to have a photo id, here in NZ.
Live an learn something everyday......

Cheers for that...... much appreciated.

i know its mad, i remember the days when you could sell your unwanted tickets to anyone, airline didnt care.
people get stuck in australia were they get conecting flights and the flight happens to be going on to an overseas destination. you think well im only going as far as brissie so i wont need id, wrong!
anyway who wants to fly when you can ride!!

The limo will be there for 12:00 pm, Madam

but have to say my taste in cars is nothing like bikes but did take the Ben Hur plastic wheel trims off.

It happened after September 11 and applies when you check in at the counter. If you check in at the little computer screens you only need your credit card and they take that as if it is you - go figure.

Hels have a great trip.
