Not into his production bikes. Bread n butter. Brought Zero Engineering to the states. Building for the Japanese market…hey guys, next stop … tourist economy. Do like his creativity. And his philosophy. Like my grandfather used to say. Sitting on his Shadow. ‘Aint nuthin like a bike son. More soul than most people. Faster than a woman. More fun too.’ No arguements from me.

I think this is the bike he rode in the Motorcycle Cannonball. Parking lot crank rebuild. What an awesome base line. Add a bit o’ didge. And an oboe……

Looking for light distraction this morning I came across this. From Angus. Of Rattlers. Thanxs for posting bro. A quick jaunt down the road for brekkie. Along my old stomping ground. Looks real fine when the Pohutukawas are in full bloom. Massive red.

Take a tin full of doobies. Follow through to Kaiaua for fish n chips. A beer. And a long dip in the Miranda hot pool. Maybe coffee with Orb.

 

pohutukawa, the kiwi xmas tree … full bloom end of nov generally means long hot summer

 

kaiaua fish n chips … twice voted best in nzl … try the terakihi – with a little lemon
