I'm keen for that ride - have just downloaded the info.

Thanks so much Secret Sister. I received the July parcel last week - having just got home from a crappy day at work after finding that my partner of 4 1/2 years had been cheating on me. I wanted to...

Hey kiwi!

Dear employment agency, research centre and human research ethics board,

Thanks for approving my research proposal, for finding me the perfect job, and for the part time research work. I really...

I've been dancing almost 6 months - and am also hooked! I have performed at one hafla - in a non-belly exposing outfit. My one involved about 30 odd people - 1/2 of whom were performing. My next one...

Awwww come on, tell me/us. The kiwis in my house are confused.

Nope, no snakes in NZ :D

Crazycanuck - what's a hoop snake?

Cool, thanks Dok-torr. That's really helpful.

I'm not sure what you mean by this bit though:

I received my package yesterday afternoon - I love silver bottles!! And I am sooo excited to be able to try a Clif bar after reading so many reviews and opinions on this forum. Thank you :-)

To my...

So, was a little slow at finding this thread...

I love to dance! belly dance and cycling - possibly the two most expensive sports/hobbies I could have chosen....

RoadRaven - how are you finding...

How exciting!

I am a belly dancer too. However, our haflas are nowhere as big and glam looking as yours! How long have you been dancing?

yeah, Qantas sells bicycle boxes for about $15-20 and even budget Pacific Blue has boxes for $15. Easy.

So... no excuses then :-)

I love that on their website, most roads are described as 'gently undulating'.....

I wonder if I can find anyone to go in a team with me then - someone who will let me do the first half....

Hiya,

I am a new Zealander currently based in Australia, but am coming (going?) home over Christmas. I was just wondering if anyone has done the Round the Mountain ride in Taranaki and had any...

A beautiful, beautiful afternoon. Did a quick 25km around part of the nearby river - and saw more dolphins! Right at the river edge - a couple of metres from me. This is about 20km or so up from the...

Happy Birthday Faroe78! And welcome.

I'm pretty new at this myself, so won't be much help. I can say though, that I agree with Geonz in regard to going to a proper bike store. I bought a bike...

Hiya,

Yep - still biking - and trying to remember to take my feet out of the pedals...

You've got a new bike then? Fun?

Thanks for sharing - sounds like I am in good company! :)

Glad you're okay.

Yay for slow motion falling.

Ha ha! As a short and heavy ex-rower and current cyclist - maybe I need to be finding myself yet another sport to have a go at...;)

tlkiwi - I keep re-reading your post - it gives me the giggles. For the most part I wholeheartedly agree - especially creepy, sloppy stuff, but nothing, nothing will ever turn me off 42 Below Feijoa...

VERY cute points system Geonz!

And CorsairMac - this body doesn't really need any little protein/fuel boosts - I have plenty in store - kinda why I started cycling ;)

A bit slow on the uptake.. but yeah, Crazycanuck - have seen the pelicans - though I tend to be looking at the ground in a paranoid state lately!

Did see a duck on a post today - I couldn't see...

I bought my first road bike less than 2 weeks ago and have been doing some gentle rides to get used it and all has been going well. Until today...

I had my first fall :) I know that's a smiley...

Hi bamakathy,

Sorry I hijacked your thread for a while there. I have been lurking here for a while and was so, so glad that someone started that thread. On the topic of families - I spoke to my...

:-) Yep, that's the one. Have been for two baby rides so far today - no pedal dramas, so I'm happy. Now I have to start preparing for Taupo. Yay home :-)
