19:18:00 <Glenn> Will be back in Nanjing in a couple of weeks scooter... and hoping my "Made in China" Yamaha LinHai scooter still scoots...
19:18:00 <scooter> cool
19:18:00 <scooter> will have to give you a shopping list of stuff to bring back
19:18:00 <Glenn> Yeah... that too. Was zero (0) degrees today... :(
19:20:00 <Glenn> What stuff do you need scooter?
19:23:00 <scooter> not sure Glenn but there bound to be sunfing

19:24:00 <scooter> i'll be riding around tassie then
19:26:00 <Glenn> Three hour stop-over in Hong Kong, long enough for breakfast, and be in Nanjing in time for a late lunch at about 2pm.

19:27:00 <Glenn> <*smirk*>
19:28:00 <Glenn> You didn't do a "dry run" first?
19:28:00 <scooter> iot was only 18 km out of their way
19:28:00 <scooter> but a nice day
19:28:00 <scooter> nah
19:28:00 <scooter> that would have been smart

19:29:00 <Glenn> We did the Port Albert "fish and chip" run last Saturday in near ideal conditions, then a quiet (?) return trip up the Tarra River road and over Mount Tassie on the return trip.
19:30:00 <scooter> what distance did you cover
19:30:00 <Glenn> About 170k's... a short one.
19:30:00 <scooter> nice run
19:30:00 <scooter> we were limited by the smaller scooters
19:31:00 <Glenn> The return trip up the back of the mountain would have taxed the smaller scooters
19:32:00 <Glenn> Your Yamaha would have been OK one-up, but two up would have had problems keeping up with the bigger machines ahead.
19:34:00 <scooter> i bet
19:34:00 <scooter> will be interesting to see how it goes on the island
19:35:00 <Glenn> Some of the lads like to push the envelope a bit on some of the winding roads.
19:35:00 <scooter> we had a learner do that a month ago and stacked it
19:35:00 <Glenn> Should be fine. Mine in China, two-up much of the time was no problems.
19:36:00 <Glenn> ...ah huh... part of the learning process?
19:38:00 <scooter> yup he was riding way beyond his ability
19:38:00 <Glenn> We had a couple of newies on our trip... and they were warned under no circumstances ride over any bark or leaves that may be on the road unless travelling in a dead straight line.
19:38:00 <scooter> and wouldn't listen
19:38:00 <Glenn> ..ah huh... :P
19:39:00 <Stingray> scoots
19:39:00 <scooter> fortuantly he just broke scoot bits and was bruised
19:39:00 <Glenn> He was lucky.
19:39:00 <scooter> very
19:39:00 <scooter> was liping by the end of the day
19:39:00 <scooter> limping
19:39:00 <Glenn> Too young to be on a scooter...
19:40:00 <scooter> mentally yeah
19:40:00 <Glenn> OK, that's different from "lipping"...
19:41:00 <scooter> anywayz i'm outta hear for a bit
19:41:00 <scooter> have a great trip if i don;t see ya
19:41:00 <Glenn> OK.. take care! :))
19:41:00 <Glenn> Thanks... and you too!
19:41:00 <scooter> stay upright
19:41:00 <Glenn> That'll be the least of my problems... :P
19:43:00 <Glenn> I'd get a rubber stamp so's I could mark up the number of feral taxis in particular that I'd have to sink the boot into in order to retain my miserable bit of road space, but there's not be enough space of the scooter's body work to record all the impressions!
19:44:00 * Stingray *burps*
19:44:00 <Glenn> Hey Stingray! :))))
