Can't get someone to push you down the driveway, and back a couple of times :)

 

Jaaaa - been there, done that.  It's all fun and games until the third or fourth time you have to push it back up the hill....

LOL ... that old Suzuki I had 20 odd years ago was pushed more km's in the end of it's life than what it actually rode.....hence my suggestion that you get someone else to push you :P

A colleague bought a Honda NC the other day and I rode it home for them.  I was quite impressed by it, especially after seeing all the reviews of it being a lethargic commuter.  Its got some decent mid range punch and enough gearing to be able to cruise of the freeway very comfortably.  The little airbox growl when you give it some beans is also quite nice.  The exhaust is VERY quiet though.  Can't hear it at all.  And the headlight sucks. 

But overall I was quite impressed.

I see many of them on the Westcoast road between CT and Table View .... I do not hear many of them though when they come past .......... the bloody KTM riders though can be heard leaving their place of employment 20k's away :P

I was almost a flat rider this morning, a moron decided to hell with waiting for the robot and went around the other cars stopped at the robot and proceeded to speed through in the emergency lane as I was turning into the road... then proceeds to take my number plate pic at the next robot... go figure!

Planning a trip up Sani Pass later this year with a couple of friends and sleeping over at Sani Mountain Lodge. Have anyone used their Dormitories before?. Its actually very cheap if you include the B/Fast + diner in the price?

Save Money on Accommodations = more beer money :thumbup:

Road 'manners' are getting noticeably worse and worse every day.

I took the car today...

 

Took leave today, was planning big mtb ride with the missus, but ended up having breakfast, shopping and zwifting in stead.

 

Builders has some nice rubberised rainsuits currently, very waterproof, at not a bad price. I went for the traffic cone orange, and it has served me well all summer.
