My bike

This is my new bike that I got for Christmas 2012. It's a second hand bike but it has been looked after a lot.The young man that Dad got it off had it for about 10 years and had out grown it.It's an Avanti ridge rider with 24 gears, front suspension and hydraulic disc brakes. It's blue with a red streak on it. Over the next 2-3 years I'm hoping to get in to the sport a bit more and get fitter too.

NZ trucking paragraph. (may 2013)




When one of McCarthy's transports clients requested a truck with enhanced off-highway traction capabilities but still capable of earning a buck on the highway-Scania's 8x6 looked just ticket to handle the terrain in the rugged Ruapehu region...

Few place-names in New Zealand pack the emotional punch that tangiwai does and the logging truck drivers that work in the region get to drive past the scene one of New Zealand worst ever disaster on a regular basis. Tangiwai was burned in to the nation's consciousness during one terrifying night when a lahar took out rail bridge and plunged 151 people to their deaths as the train and carriages plummeted in to the river.

These 2 paragraph was from n.z. trucking mag about McCarthy's new G420 8x6 Scnia and place of use.
