Not exactly a staggering response. Thank you for the people who have voted.
I will really need a few more who are willing to order before we can commit to this.

Cheers,
Alex

Jim’s photo website doesn’t allow linking to images, so I’ve moved them to photobucket. Here they are.



























I am sure he'll be happy to explain any details if asked.

Thanks Jim, so images are great, it is always interesting to see what people in other countries are up to.

Cheers,
Alex

in reply to: Do you wave to other riders ? #5966

Then you are excused from waving. I wave at everything on two wheels. I love waving at the Harley cool dudes who are dressed up in their most individual outfit (black helmet, black scarf and black sunglasses) Most don’t respond (waving is not cool, you know), but some of the guys you wouldn’t have expected it from start smiling and wave back, mainly Maori I might add.

I can't believe it, I've just hit rock bottom. I've replied to a thread on waving.

I am sure you can Jim, then all you need is a bit of rouge and some eyeliner and you are ready to go.

Thanks for the report. We just couldn’t get out of bed early enough and were put off by the fog. I see that our Cameraman is slacking off again, but it should be as compulsory to carry a camera as it is to carry a first aid kit.

Would that be Peter Z on the GT? I still haven't been able to get my hands on the R1200S, we'll see what their excuse is on Wednesday :-).

Very nice, I am sure it will be priced way out of my price range.

in reply to: T-Shirt Design Suggestion #5932

I was trying to get some feedback on a T-shirt design, not start a debate on the name. I don’t care either way, but I’d love to get a club t-shirt that looks the part.

It has started a while ago, but has progressively gotten worse. I am sure it will get sorted.

in reply to: NZ visit was GREAT!!!! #5913

I would have liked to meet you, but the timing for us was all wrong. Maybe next time. How about writing a report for us about one of your local rides. I’d love to see some Maine scenery.

in reply to: Auckland Area Rep Report May 14th #5926

Thanks for the report. Unfortunately it was time to catch up on some work for us, so we couldn’t join you. We’ll be on the next rideif the weather is bearable, as Gerda’s new suit has developed the same habit as the old one.

in reply to: dual sport ride to ohakune – eclectic bunch and bikes #5901

Hi Ian, good to hear from you. That is an interesting sideways picture. You are still sitting on the bike, looks like the fall hadn’t sunk in yet, pardon the pun :-). I hope the water wasn’t too cold.

I am sure we'll meet again on a ride. However, it's virtually impossible for me to get away during the week.

Now that Kiwi Adventure is on an RT I don't really know anyone who is keen on gravel rides.

Thanks for the report, you are a brave man.

I did an dual sport ride this past weekend from Wellington to Ohakune via the Whanganui River Road (yes I know its a favourite of mine) – tooling around Ohakune and returning via Turakina Valley Rd – this little old house is South of Taihape – others I was riding with were bemused at my stopping to photograph old buildings


I saw that one on the way back from the CCA. Didn't stop, though. I am glad you picked it up.

Maybe Regalia should hold them and sell them?

Your call, but to be fair, the people who've put their name down before should get them for free. I'll give you the list on Monday, there are 13 names on it.

in reply to: BMWOR website sticker #5854

Malcolm S. has produced 50 stickers at no cost. That means that there will be 48 stickers available. I will try to make sure that people who have expressed an interest here will get one. I’m not sure if your colour choice will be available. Of course, if you’re at the meeting, chances are you’ll get what you want.

Those people here who can't come to the meeting, and want a sticker, can send a self addressed (stamped) envelop, with a note, to the secretary for a sticker. Peter, I hope that's ok.
