    The way the Prius works is it uses electricity until around 60km, then
    uses petrol after that. The trick is to get the right balance between
    the two.

    Depends on your situation if it does make more sense for you.

    Well it was Otautau which was pretty depressed at the time. He moved from
    Tauranga and loves the place.
    It's a good choice in my opinion. I love the West Coast and I don't think
    you'd tire of riding the Buller or the Greymouth, Reefton loop.

    Which means you either treasure your facility to scull milk out of the
    carton with your nuts hanging out in the cooling breeze from the fridge
    a lot less than I do, or you're a lot more at ease with your flatmates
    than I would be.

    Just ratinoalising the fleet Clem, the new BMW R1200ST looks really great,
    more power and lighter than my old R1100S with better ergonomics for my
    aging body. The K1100LT will be sold.

    I understand your comments, i too thought that it was ugley untill I had a
    long look at it, but it grew on me (like a fungus) I will have one on loan
    for the weekend in Melbourne soon so I can veto the order if it doesnt meet
    expectations.

    Nope, nothing about renewable oil, but there sure seem to be a lot of
    photos out there showing John F. Kennedy shaking hands with short,
    scrawny, naked little gray-skinned dudes with huge black eyes.

    Running your own buisness means you can lease a bike and have it as a tax
    deduction.

    Winter in Victoria (or is it southern NSW) heads to the garage to dig out
    the heated vest. Check the heated grips are working.

  19. Certainly not weather for riding in shorts and Hawaian shirts.

    Last time I was there, we had dust storms.
