Ha! Necroposting is always fun!
Yeah, it sure was a nice day to be in New Zealand’s South Island, the riding conditions were perfect and the scenery magnificent!
Today will be the same, the weather is pretty stable at the moment, another 3 days of warm pleasant conditions.
I love this time of year, spring has sprung!
I also got a lot of parts picked up for the job I have on in my garage.
Did I mention that I’d “retired”?
The bike shop closed the doors a month ago, I just work from home now servicing and looking after my own clients’ bikes.
The work just flows in, more than I’d expected and it’s all just word of mouth, mostly repeat business.
I’m enjoying the laid back hours and not having to drive 84kms a day to work and home!

Retiring is fun, now you will have more time to work...

Wow
Sad to hear of a good dealership closing, but great that you seem to have as much side work as you want.
We'll also need more pics this time too, none of this 'beautiful scenery' stuff, then the pics are bunch of old cojjers standing in a field...I even saw a Goldwing in there!
I can post those kinds of pictures from here Greg...
lmao
Congrats man, I'm glad that your able to ride and wrench and enjoy your retirement.

Ive got a go-pro hero4 so I will set it to still snaps and get some great shots as I'm riding, just never seem to pull over for scenic shots.
I will be doing some touring later in the year and will post up pics of my favorite NZ scenery!
and as for "old cojjers". . . . yeah, I'm now one of them lmao!
Thanks for the congrats re retiring, it's funny coz I'm working more than ever, just the hours have changed.
The bit I do not like is sourcing parts, I spend hours on the internet looking for stuff I need.
I've also gotta buy more specialised tools now that I do not have the luxury of a well equipped dealership workshop,
But it's challenging and I like a good challenge, keeps me awake!
