Happy New Year from Magpie!
« on: December 30, 2008, 09:09:45 PM »
Hey Guys!
Happy New Year, thanks for all your help in the past, your help in the future ( I know you will) and putting up with my ramblings! If you happen to be coming to one of the nicest places on earth, Victoria, B.C. at the southern tip of Vancouver Island, email me, we have room for bikes and people.
Cheers,
Cliff.

Actually Scunny being on the east coast of the North island of New Zealand makes me first to greet the new year....anyone want to argue?
Alright....Happy New Year, I wish you all safe riding and clear open roads for 2009. ;D

I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I don't know why we send them the sun? all we get from them is bad weather! ;D
It's 9pm here in NZ and like it or not I have to go to bed early as I have an alarm set for 4am to get me to work to feed the bad people. ;D
If any of you are staying up have one for Hush........

Likewise Hush, I won't be sitting up thru it. Too much work to do on the bike and sidecar tomorrow. But Happy New Year to all. Cheers

Happy New Years to the awesomest group of people in the world! Thank you everyone who has helped me over the last year, my bike wouldn't be running without you (or at least not near as well  ;) ). And thank you to everyone who will be helping me in the future! This is the coolest group I have ever belonged to.

Thanks,

Brandon
