Troubles back !

Yep, I'm back from my 3 week South Island trip. Covered over 4000km on my Thunderbird didn't miss a beat.

Have a lot of catching up to do, I see there has been some good threads whilst I've been isolated from the net and I notice Wombat is back in OZ for another week.

Will post some pics on a ride report when I get organised. I ruined one camera in Milford Sound getting too close to a waterfall but the flash-memory survived.

----------------
Ride on !

... welcome back tbird - look foward to your report and photos.
The South Island is a bikers nirvana - and I hope it all went well for you.
We thought of having a party with you and Wombat out of circulation - but we didnt

Good to have you back. A ruined camera is always a good sign that you had a good time.

Wow, has it really been three weeks? My life is moving too fast.

Dave's right, we've been absolute children. I mean perfect children; perfect. (somebody get the golf balls out of the aquarium and the cat out of the freezer)

Can't wait to see the pictures! Welcome back!

Can't wait to see the pics - If we can't go there ourselves we ride vicariously through others

Welcome back - glad you had a good trip
