What an odd day ..... i finished up a 3 year contract today. After decending 18 flights of scaff stairs for the last time .... i put my bloody back out again
Said goodbye to all the crew and went home.
When i got home , there was a guy standing on my front step ..... it was Greg ! (Scaber) i had to explain , i was in pain , and needed a lie down asap.
He was good (cheers Greg) turns out he was out walking , and passed by my humble abode ... and .... saw the wee red toyota ( i have 3 ) and thought i was home .... but i was about 5 mins after that .... arghhh , its to odd to explain, and Im sure your interested ... not.

Anyway Greg , had i have been home and in one piece , you would have been most welcome.

There is no 'backing' out Greg is everywhere .. hes everywhere, ....... back problems, I would never want to go there, you look after yourself.

I think its amazing that most of the NZ members seem to be within a short walking/bus ride distance of each other!

New Zealand is a much smaller place than I thought it was!.... ...!

Henry Cole, on the Travel TV series; "Worlds greatest motorcycle rides", did the North Island tour on his Harley 48, in just one hour!.... ...!

I hope you are feeling better Marty...you seem to be suffering in all sorts of ways!!

Paul..... ...!

Marty, sounds like you need a couple of weeks in one of those pool-side bars in Fiji... or is it bar-side pools? Winter still has a bit to go, so don't worry about another job at the moment, just get on that plane...

Good on you Foz, I like your type of slant on life...

Henry also did most of the Australian outback, coast to coast America, and a session at the Bonneville saltflats, also all in one hour segments.
I think he must have sussed out my attention span...?

Its a regular mountain bike ride out to the airport 12/15 minutes, from my home out to West Melton, Ricks place is only 40/45 minutes .. when you look at it the NZ is probably bigger than the UK, in my proximity I know going on 20 plus flight simmers who stop here regular, it is a small world .

If you really want a strange day, meet me after work one day. My bus stop is outside a bar on K'Rd in Auckland... Guarantee ya, I can beat strange any day of the week...

I've watched all of Henry's various Motorbike escapades, including the Ozzy ones, NZ ones, European ones, and the classic American ones, which have now got me yearning for a nice Yamaha XVS Dragstar vee-twin!

Henry's trips down US Route 1, East and West Coast, Rout 66, and the desert runs, on the Saxon Choppers, I found fascinating!

Wonderful experience, riding motorbikes...keeps you young!
...been doing it, every day for 65 years now!

Paul...Meep-meep.... ....!

A strange day, back-aches, and motor-bikes...its all there, somewhere... ....!

Just watching Henry touring the NZ South Island on the travel channel, riding a lovely Harley Davidson 48...with a red tank!
