Can you swap all the goodies over Neil? or does that mean another round of aftermarket shopping ;D

Thanks Neil, a good keen man, and well worth the effort from the way your report reads.

“The photos are exceptional……stunning”Agreed, you have captured a wonderful record of your trip.  Clearly photography is as much a passion as motorcycling? well done.

A great effort Ramarro.  Pleased that you had a good trip and experienced some of our many attractions with clear skies and grey.  You don't say if you were able to meet any of our NZ members?  Perhaps on the road somewhere?

Hi Max, you've been laying low.  Still riding (thrashing) that RT?

Talking of rain, it's just arrived with a vengeance so take your wets.  On a different tack, don't tell me you're building a shed for the Susie? with all that stuff in the background?

Nope, not till Monday. I'm about to go ride my bike and see if my reputable luggage stays attached.

  Bruce the bike is not really as the name implies but "goodness gracious me" can't you find a slightly more streamlined way of attaching your luggage.

Well goodness gracious me - you mean we have executive positions? Is this like in Kama Sutra?

The mind boggles Ken.

Hope you can stay dry, I'm watching blue skies but a nasty grey strip coming across the harbour right now.  Anyway about Suzuki, if common sense were part of my make up it'd be high on my list but most of the fun times I've had haven't had anything to do with common sense.  And I just love that Roundel  ;D

Yes Dave, a popular run for those in the Northern regions as it has good tight sealed roads and some great metal too.

Thanks Steve, I knew some of those faces and where else but on the farm would the kids get bright green icing on their cup cakes  ::) Must take a walk through the caves one of these days.

Not me Steve, I was with the kids. (human ones that is)

Shore is  ;).  Haven't heard how the run went on Sunday but the Pro Rider training run to Nikau Cafe went well on Saturday even though we couldn't see our instruments most of the way down to the Cafe through that Waikato pea souper.  Karel Pavich and her team are good guys and we even got to take in about 8ks of metal. The meal blew my previous experiences at the Nikau out of the window with a magnificent lunch of soup and fresh bread followed by pots of filter coffee and basil shortbread – yum.  The run home started slowly until Karel barreled past the lead rider (R1100 S) and made “get going signals” and from there the pace picked up for a great run home to Pukekohe.  I'm very happy with the way the GS handled the damp twisties, just need to get out on some more metal soon.  My participation was courtesy of the ACC I enjoyed my day and met a new bunch of interesting enthusiasts.There ya go.
