OK, how's it all going out there? Are you all getting the last little bits done on your bikes, registrations warrants, oil changes, brakes etc etc. because it's time for the great weather to raise it's head and give us some spring time riding. Went for a nice little rise in the weekend just gone, not a big one, but one more to clear to head, and get back into the rhythm of riding again, so nothing too serious. Swung it around a bit just to get it n the zone again. Funny because that night on the news there was a rider safety segment on discussing the fact that this time of year there are a whole lot more accidents as bikes are dragged out for the summer. But we had already thought that. It was nice to pull the helmet on again it has to be said. Saw a few bikes out there, oh and I fell in love with the lady in the black and white Rev It leathers on the little silver Triumph and the red Katmandu backpack at Okere Falls. ( call me 😍)Where have you been all my life. A couple of nice custom paint Monsters were in attendance as well as a number of BMW's too. What a great little place to stop. Sitting here looking at the fresh frame, wheels and all sorts of bits and pieces for the NCR, and funnily enough the first image today is of what the bike will look like in a few weeks. So work to be done.















Great shot, I spent a very nice afternoon here a couple of years ago, and I think it is without doubt the best place to watch this fantastic race.

There's at least three things here that the younger folk wont know what they are





This guy is getting it down that's for sure

There's a Guzzi in this image,,,,no seriously there is










A 900 Supersport made to look like an F1, me likey










Pretty lil Italians out for a spring break, nice one guys looking bloody good.



I do love, I say i do love a great bar, and this one looks like a great bar




Hmmm, not so sure, but it is a Guzzi





Back when you could order a Triumph GP race kit.










A few mates of mine have just done East to West across the states, 7 weeks 300K's a day, this is them dipping their toes into the Pacific. What an adventure. The bikes are currently in America and are waiting for someone to buy them and do the trip themselves








Very nice







This thing must be massive, given the size of the truck it's loading
Again, not too sure, but if its what the builder wanted then its fine with me.


My Japanese friends certainly do love their bikes, and two strokes in particular, good on them





 They love their big four strokes as well.







 Another car I've owned that i miss





 Now this does look really nice









Sellng this F1 as well. $15,500 , was going to restore it, but it's a survivor bike, I think that 90% of the bolts were put on by the factory, it's unmolested and in pretty good shape. 13000 Kilometers, it runs but needs a tune, is not vinned or complied, new tyres and indicators, haven't checked the belts, it is what it is. so email me if you want a great project bike. I've left enough meat on it, so that if you want to restore it you will still make money. I'm only moving it on because there's another bevel I want.






So that's all folks, have a great weekend, enjoy your bikes and ride safe.
