Let me start by thanking all of you for your support over the years and for your mateship, knowledge, wisdom, humor etc.
I think I first came across the original AHC site in 2002, membership number somewhere around 274. Up till 2005 I spent many an hour enjoying the Hayabusa Road Train on our many Busa Rides and other rides that some of you guys joined us on.
Following Jules death in Oct 2004 I proceeded to go somewhat off the rails, wrote my Busa off in Feb 2005, did a rebuild only to give myself one hell of a wake up call
before it was too late. Since about Aug 2005 I've been sitting on the sidelines, dropping in every so often, yearning for the day to go riding again (once in a better head space). Well, I haven't quite got there, but the need has surpassed the fear.
This week, I ordered a New Kawasaki 1400GTR and a Krakatinnie Camper Trailer. So in all fairness I thought I should fess up to you all and let you know what I have done. The reality is that I would have loved another Busa, but the towing and boy racer meant that I needed to go a different path.
That said, I would still love to ride with you guys when the situation presents itself, (assuming the traitor would be welcome) and if possible might even see if I could be granted a day pass to visit the next yearly gathering.
I am now located in Inverell up in the New England and if any of you are heading through this way please give me the heads up, I'd love to join you and you might even score a bed if you ask nicely.
To one and all, thanks again
for the past 8 years and here's hoping for a continued bond.
Cheers, Dave
