I'm Leaving, For A While.

I'm busy getting my house ready for sale and selling the house and garage contents. My eldest daughter moved to Brisbane last September and I've been planning a trip to New Zealand. The plan is to fly to Brisbane in June with my youngest daughter, have three weeks with both of em around Brisbane, Barrier Reef and Sydney. Youngest flies home and me and eldest are doing a roadtrip between Cairns and Tasmania until early September. Then we fly out to Auckland to pick up a bike and a van to tour the North Island and when the weather improves, the South Island. If they don't let me stay in NZ or Oz, I'll be back in 9 to 12 months.
Almost everything is for sale. House contents including numerous pine furniture, 42" TV, Bosch washing machine, DVD player and PVR. Most of my bikes will be gone soon, with just the Midnight Star cruiser to sell in June. The GSX project will be stored near Bolton. If anybody fancies meeting up before end of June gimme a shout?

 

Alright mate, just read this. I'll happily meet up with you at some point.

Will it be for a ride out or does that depend on whether you've sold them etc?

 

it will be a blast. East Coast Oz is lovely...I think I prefer the NSW/VIC coast better than QLD....NZ North and South is like Chalk and Cheese....but both equally fantastic. One of my favourite spots on the South island is Wanaka.

Keep in touch mate as I'm usually in Melbourne once a year...so if schedules cross...happy to meet for a coldie. Hopefully see you before though...

 

Thanks guys. I'm keeping the Midnight Star to ride until June. Can meet up most times Mike, once house is on the market. Will take you up on that pint Paul, once I can get a lift back from pub. I will keep in touch thanks Gareth. Should be in Melbourne area in late July.

 

Ok mate, I'll let the weather improve and we'll sort something.

 

I hope you have a great time fella, look forward to your return to see some good pictures

 

Cheers mate. Would be great to meet up again. Not seen you for ages!

 

Blimey Al...Just seen this....It does sounds like an excellent adventure...

Hopefully I'll get to see you for a coffee before you go as it has been ages since I've seen you.... Sounds a lot of fun mate..

 

Not leaving until June mate, so plenty of time for a get together.
