"Where's the pic? Where's the report?" were the cries on Pete's initial thread about this trip.
Be patient was my advice ... which I followed, confident that AusTouring would advise me when Pete made further posts.
Yesterday my patience ended and I thought: either P and G are off on another trip, or Pete's still recovering
from over-indulgence in NZ boutique beers, most likely the second.
Logging on to AT got me to this second thread, to find I am weeks behind in my reading. Taking it slowly and only
about half way through as yet, as it's absorbing reading and viewing that deserves more than a quick glance.
Great photographs, Pete, and it's just amazing that so many of them are not blurred, what with all the rocking and rolling
on the Golden Boys. We could have swapped them after the first day's check ride if you had said - silly man !!
Actually, they are my tyre of choice for the CT's and never had a bum one before - first for everything and you were the unlucky victim.
Lesson learnt - next time I'll fit tyres that cost more than $1.47 each.
It was a great pleasure to help Pete and Gudrun with this trip, and doing so has gone part-way towards balancing the books for all the help
they have given me on my Australian trips. (And there was the added bonus of getting to hug Gudrun at the airport - TWICE):cdle
