CarbonArt Motorcycle Lifestyles

Well well , the first blog from the new premises. It's been a singularly frustrating week thats for sure, siting here working on bikes and waiting for trades people to turn up and do shit. "Yeah yeah be there tomorrow", hah a dollar for every time that I have heard that in the past few weeks. But I am here now, the web site is up and running and a couple of bikes have gone out the door, so it's promising that's for sure. Lots of interest in the Bimotas ( hint call me and I will do a deal). Looks like I am about to become an agent for Bell open face helmets as well, but we still have some work to do. If there is one thing that i have learnt over the past year or so, that is don't let anything or anyone get in your way, if your keen on doing something that your really into, go with it, and it will come. I jsut spent an entire day taking the front end off of a BMWF800R that I have, and when I finished for the day, I couldn't believe where the time had gone, it felt like I was kicking about in my own back garage. And when that realization hit me I laughed out loud in my concrete cavernous space, and I thought " shit that's the first time I've actually made a noise today, no conversations, just quietly doing shit that I love". It's not really work is it? Have to say though I am looking forward to the summer, it's bloody freezing and I'm starting to get a pissed at my northern hemisphere readers who keep sending me images of them out riding. It looks so bloody nice seeing cafe style bikes hooning down the roads of Tuscany, and around the back streets of Amsterdam, as I am known for saying "bastards, bastards, bastards". Ha ha it's all good though. Really glad I don't have to do that Wellington thing, I mean it was my home town for a long long time, but it really is that much nicer up here. Anyways I digress heres this weeks images for you all along with my ramblings, thank you all for your support and good wishes it means a lot to me to have great friends all over the world getting behind me. Cheers to you all.

Richard Scott Wanganui. Bought the bike the day before and raced it the next, I think he got that wrong though it's usually what wins on Sunday sells on Monday
