Godzilla Begins his prowl of OZ & has his sights set on Europe as we speak!
« on: January 23, 2012, 11:09:53 PM »
NEWS FLASH UPDATE 01/24/2012:

Godzilla has conquered the Kiwis and left no sheep unmolested! They miss him so much the whales just beached themselves! Terry and GZ are teaming up to take down the outback as we speak. I'm thinking the sheep should seem tame compared to how he handles the roos  :o

Up next - E U R O P E in June. Sam is taking on the daunting challenge of getting the masses together to show the world your world via text and pictures. Go into Team Europe in the World Tour section. Get in touch with Sam and sign on for a journey. Godzilla needs you. You have only a few months to get a plan in place. Don't make Sam do it all himself! He is OLD!! BUT, he may have to show you youngsters a thing or two if you're not careful. Keep the dreams and the ride alive - sign on today!

don't get too excited Jerry. the tracking # shows it's "held for clearance" what does that mean and what the #$%* have they been doing the 3 days GZ has been there. might be time to get some Kiwi workers into Aussie post.   ;D

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Terry - what's your plan once you get him?

G'Day Steve, well I just answered a knock on the door and the good news is that Godzilla is in the house! (or in the garage at least, I don't want the wife thinking it's one of the dogs toys and letting the dog eat it) I'm taking him for a ride tomorrow so he can get acclimatised to Oz, then he'll be making a visit to see Bear in hospital, then we'll take a ride down to Phillip Island for the classic racing on Sunday.

Mick in Darwin is coordinating the Oz leg of the relay, so we'll have to work out which direction he'll go from Melbourne, but I'd like to see some of the Melbourne riders get together with me for a ride so we can get the GZ show on the road! Cheers, Terry. ;D

Woooo Hoooo!! 

Remember to post ur miles (or KMs)!!  Track the distance you rode to meet up with GZ, the miles GZ was on your bike, the miles you rode along side and the miles you rode home. Add up all these miles and, if you ride more than 500, there are "Club" threads to post on.  No matter how many miles you ride, I need to know how many GZ rode.

Good Luck Gents!!

Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.
