Just droppen in to say Gidday!
« on: December 14, 2008, 05:48:16 AM »
Hi everyone...I am a Kiwi living in Christchurch New Zealand and dropped in to your site to say Gidday and introduce myself.   
   I ride a GSX-R1000k6 (blue n white), I bought it new 2 years ago,  and I have just hosted a NS local who is travelling NZ on a XT400 Yamaha. His name is Dan Maclean and he is from Halifax. Does anyone here know him? Bloody good bloke and he has just returned to Halifax on Sunday. Small world we live in thanks to Google eh!
   Anyway, hes told me a bit about Canada and NS in particular and it sounds like a bike friendly place....apart from the harsh winters you lot endure. Nice to meet you all, Greg M.

Hey Greg, welcome to the site, hope to see you around :)  Also Dan Maclean....  I heard the name before, but not sure is its the same person.  Maybe Dan is short for Daniel?  If so ask if her was from Merigomish before Halifax :p

PS:  Love your bike, hoping that my next one is going to be a GSX-R 1000 :)
