    LOOKING FOR A RIDING BUDDY IN THE SUTHERLAND SHIRE!

    Hi, All!

    Alex is my name, I live in Menai, in the Sutherland Shire, on the southern limits of Sydney, I’m over 50 but still extremely immature & very keen too hoon, as I like to call going offroad.

    I’ve got a BMW R1200 GSA (2007) and a Yamaha WR450F (2008 & road registered), both of which I take off road as often as I can. I’m looking for other riders now that my regular riding mate has called it quits after coming a cropper and breaking an arm and a couple of ribs (he made the fateful decision to quit hoonin’ as he was being winched up through the trees to the air-rescue helicopter).

    Anyway, my problem is that he’s the one who had the car with the tow-bar & the trailer, and I now find it difficult to get the Yammy to the good playgrounds. So, I am hoping that someone living in the Shire and owning a trailer might be looking for a riding partner (and sharing the costs of trarnsporting the bikes, of course). I’d happily ride the dirt bike to a convenient nearby meeting point, if that would make it easier; as I say, it’s road registered.

    Even if you don’t own a trailer, we can share the costs of hiring a trailor or ute.

    I’m also keen to go out on the Beamer, anytime as well!

    Anyway, loved to hear from any interested parties.

    Cheers, Alex (aka Needlemeyer).

    I’ve just signed up & looking for riding buddies. I live in the Sutherland Shire, on the southern outskirts of Sydney, is that anywhere near you?

    Cheers, Alex.

    Thanks for all the responses and apologies for getting back on sooner!

    I would love to come along on the Birthday ride, but I see it’s now full, so is it still possible? Otherwise, I’ll just book myself in on another ride as soon as I can.

    Cheers,

    Alex.
