Well that was a long week, I overdid it last weekend, but made up for it with a quiet week. Looking through the images this week, and there certainly seems to be a lot of non bike imagers, but I am sure you will enjoy them non the less. I look at about 200 hundred images per issue,, so a few extra like that wont hurt. And who knows, they might make you more aware. I don't know. So the MotoGp season is about to kick off, cant wait to see some top quality racing get underway. What has happened to Superbikes, haven't heard anything of this so far. I was in Taupo last weekend, great to see some top quality racing going on here, I have to say some of our younger guys and girls are proving to be quite fast. great to see. And shitloads of bikes out on the roads. Always nice to see that after a weekend of extra bikes on the road, no increase in road fatalities or accidents. It always worries me at this time of the year when I have lots of friends out there attending rallies and doing summer trips, So the Diavel has new booties, new chain, new brakes, new oil, and a full brake and clutch fluid change. I just need to sort out the flat as fuck rear shock, but I wont have time for that with a lizard ride coming up in a couple of weeks. South Island here we come. So if your out there and you see a Diavel cruising along, give it a wave, it's more than likely me. I'm leaving early to spend a few days in the Hawkes Bay and then we met in Wellington, I'll do the top of the South and then head South with a couple of Wanaka Lizards for a few days down there. Looking forward to seeing the Kaikura coast, haven't passed that way since the earthquake. It's a real mixed bag of images this week, lots of eye watering material to feast upon. So, it's that time to get on with this weeks blog. Enjoy.

What a machine, it was a stunning dirt bike, grunt like you wouldn't believe and wheelstand for miles and miles. I'd love to know where this bike is now.

My Bus, it was slow as fuck, but it got us everywhere no worries.

No finer way to start the day, add coffee and its about perfect. Simple is best.

Who didn't grow up abusing these?

I love food in the evening down south after a long days ride, can't beat it.

The NZ NDR, would have been great to go.

Porsche cup cars getting readied for the new season

So sad to hear of this ladies passing. RIP Sabine Smitz.

This is how you get gas in the States. pretty fucked eh?

Just imagine this little chap when he's a teen

Righty ho then, that's that, I'm done for another week, time for me to put that new shock on the Diavel, pack the bike and head south, well in a few weeks time anyways, but you need to be prepared. Ride safe, and don't sweat the small things.
