just fixed the wee error....

that was a very cool bike! I even got a pic taken sitting in the sidechair, bloody awesome suspension on it, felt like sitting in a boat, very smooth apparently.

Had a damn fine rally, but the ride there was probably the worse wind i have been in I'd say. I dont mind the wind normally, but when it is as strong as that and coming from all directions, it was a little unnerving at times. My bike doesn't tend to catch the wind much, the advantage of no fairings, but I certainly felt it this time. Think the worse bit was when my head was yanked back so i was staring at the sky thinking...WTF?? But made it there safely... and have sworn off ever going to the source of the nor'wester wind again. The weekend before I did a longer trip over the same roads in the pouring rain and was happy as a lark....but after being picked up a few times by the Nor'wester and dumped across the lane I was VERY pleased to see Geraldine.
Apart from that I had a pretty nice time, the band was good (as normal), and plenty of interesting whiskys and tequila to pilfer... yup damn good time!

Hopefully will catch most you again in 2 weeks time...fingers crossed for slightly calmer travelling... today is bloody perfect!

yikes, I don't remember this. I didn't make too much of an arse of myself did i?

Oh, by the way watch out for roadworks. On the way up I missed the first speed sign and was handed this by the cop just around the corner

tassle free zone

vinyl fork protectors might be the go

Blasphemy.......

TWR.....are you going to make it down to otematata...................?

Yep that was a good rally. The wind was a bitch going done there, otherwise all good. Great to meet up with the regulars again plus some new faces, excellent stuff.

That has got to hurt, I remember you telling us but I don't remember the fine being that sizable, faaark.

I think everyone had a rather good glow on excepting of course young silage.

A couple of crappy photos from my cell phone...(a certain disinterested person and his mother half and camp kb the next morning)

**scumdog** · 27th November 2006, 22:38

I have to concur with all the above sentiments: a great rally and an even greater bunch of KBers

Great to be able to give shit to each other and have a laugh about it eh?

BTW Phaedrus, do you remember getting pulled back out of the fire on the Saturday night? Thought you had turned into a Hindus widow for a moment!

Can't wait until the next KB get-together at Camp Runamuk, Otematata!

I wasn't actually there, CB told me about it, sounds like you narrowly missed being fried that's for sure! (and CB thinks that's where you lost your Vodka).

Silage does not glow it/he just sits there and ummm... And enuf of that "young" talk from adolescents like you, I have a reputation to maintain.

Good rally, good company (on the distinguished side of the gate anyhow). Bit short of organised activities but overall enjoyable. Don't know that I tagged all KBers but good to catch a few newbies (ok and the others).

Phaedrus, how did you get your handle recorded on the rap sheet? Bummer anyhow and thanks for the heads up re roadworks speed checks. I will probably be passing thru that way on the way to Otebiscuits via Dunedin. Also, if you lost your bottle o'vodka after I last saw you, there wasn't enough left to worry about.

**phaedrus** · 28th November 2006, 17:21

The easy part was getting the speeding ticket - too easy.
The rest was a simple matter of digital forgery

I think next time i'll use a smaller bottle and weaker brew
