[Ragingrob]

This ride last year was my first ever "group ride", was a bit of fun lol, just didn't know anyone and kinda lost the whole smc group for the actual ride.

Can't make this one ay got a 21st on Sat so will be well and truly buggered in the morn.

[PirateJafa]

I'll be thar.

Or the alternative is you all might see my passed out slumped over the back on a TL, depending on how fucked I am after this roadtrip. <_<

Yep, as it stands the pillion seat will be free. Hanne has a 1/2 Marathon to run, her sister might want to come again tho

[Real_Wolf]

lol, i'm tempted to come on the pillion seat. I miss bikes

[Slyer]

Hopefully my bike is operational, otherwise I bags pillion!

-sigh- your thread have more replies than mine....

[BANZAI]

Hey my gf is interested to come to this one and I am planning to turn her into female biker (and yes I am succesfully made her interested to come to this event. So my plan is working! :devil2:)

So what I would like you guys to ask is.....

Could any "experienced FEMALE BIKER" please pillion her during the ride?

I have spare helmet and knee guard but thats all I have and she does'nt have gears as well so would be great if she can borrow jacket. (in worst case I'll lend her mine and I go squid! lol)

Hanne has your bike fixed? If you can do it that'll be great. I saw you pillioning Sophy, I trust your riding :)

Btw, I only trust few of male bikers in SMC (not in terms of riding but other things) so I don't want her to sit behind of you all dirty bastards bike! :Police:

[Slyer]

Devious! Plant the seed of motorcycling. :)
Going pillion on the back of Hanne's bike got me hooked on biking too. :D
I'm sure if there is no one from the smc eligible there might be somewhere else in KB.

Hmmm but I don't know any female bikers in KB except ppl in SMC....

I wish I could pillion her but you know........:crybaby:

It's more important that she gets the experience on bike! (but not on the back of you all Single Male Club bike)

[bomma]

i'd lend her my back seat mate, but dont think i'll be making this one......blardy uni has me crying for an ounce of help that'll open my eyes and help me understand the simplicity of the essay questions with which i am faced.....alas thus far staring at the computer screen has yielded no results.....maybe a few more hours of staring followed by short loaning a random book??

[HungusMaximist]

There could be a possibility I could lend a seat, depends on how gorgeous looking she is... :msn-wink:

[Squiggles]

I have a spare jacket and gloves... pillion seat is still up for grabs, leah has yet to bags it.

Weather is looking good for the ride

[PirateJafa]

What sort of time does the event "finish" and people start leaving?

[Real_Wolf]

If theres the pillion seat left by sunday, I'll take it, if not, dw bout it

[bomma]

man im gonna go home and find that video of fred durst soloing and stick it up here!! it's a must watch for EVERYONE!!! :clap:

[BANZAI]

:crybaby: She changed her mind :crybaby:

Btw Ewen you are on my facebook so check my profile through that, you can find her :)

And she is gorgeous looking :p

Oh well next time when theres a chance!

I still see you guys there!

[GSXR Trace]

hey how long is this thing meant to go on for once it gets to its final destination? I'm probably not going to be able to make it, due to excessive amounts of work that needs to get done, but went around coro loop last weekend and ended up smoking my moot! but don't want to push my luck!:apint:

[GSXR Trace]

BTW, sorry that can't even offer a pilion seat... but I don't even have mine in auckland... be a little uncomfortable on the back without a seat! I figure my bike is for my enjoyment, and didn't even know anyone else in Ak with a bike when I brought it up (except for Rie).

[Slyer]

:crybaby: She changed her mind :crybaby:
Burn her!
*Adds you to facebook*

[Squiggles]

FWIW, the ride will be finished up by midday, takes a while to get going with the large numbers, but the route isnt long at all. Good cause to support...

[TOTO]

here is what the organiser wrote:


Ride travels from Selwyn college along the waterfront through the bottom of Parnell onto the North Western motorway and off at Western Springs finishing at Western Springs Stadium for the prizes and raffle draw.
Ride takes about 40 mins to complete.
We have a full police escort and green light wave with the traffic lights.
Cheers
Lisa.

It is short but never the less a great cause indeed.

However, wished it was longer and the organisers would let it run through Queen St, just like the toy run.

See you chaps all there.

[Squiggles]

*Bump*

Pillion seat is now booked

[bomma]

hey who keeps deleting the tags!!!! that's not fair now is it :oi-grr:

[Real_Wolf]

out of curiosity who booked the pillion?

[Ragingrob]

Maybe Hanne's sister

[Squiggles]

Yer, Ruth booked the seat. See you all tomorrow
Steve

[Jahdafario]

hey , whats a smoked moot?

[BANZAI]

It was great ride! I had to go so left early, hope you guys had fun too! :D

[motorbyclist]

if u want a safe rider, ask around whos had 0 crashes while they've been riding

lol


no bins != safe rider

knee down != safe rider either :bleh:


(!= means 'not equal to' in a few programming languages)

[GSXR Trace]

hey , whats a smoked moot?

i smoked/creamed/did well in my moot/courtroom/litigation assessment... does that make more sense? My point was that i horsed around at the weekend by going riding and didn't prepare for it until sunday night, and still got a good mark... but realise its a totally different ball game for exams so need to start preparing for them! ekk:shit::sweatdrop


So how was the pink ribbon ride anyway?

[Jahdafario]

lol


no bins != safe rider

knee down != safe rider either :bleh:


(!= means 'not equal to' in a few programming languages)

lol, ok, well maybe no bins = exemplary rider then :)

P.S. Ahaha Yui closed his eyes! :lol:

[Phurrball]

Nice piccs Dan - looks like a good time was had by all.

ROFL at the 'smoked Moot'

- had mental images of written submissions rolled up and lit at one end - that's got to be a sure-fire winner with any judge ('scuse the terrible pun)

Frustration finally got the better of me this morning, so I disassembled the whole front of the Viffer to change the head light bulbs (Not strictly necessary - but I couldn't reach in with great mitt AND see where the spring clip latches).

Educational though - I now have considerably more betterer lights AND I found K&N atop the air box - W00T!

(Still can't change stupid farenheit to celcius though - damn US import...)

Did any of you wonder who the random dudes on the GSXR thou with the open pipes and the little cruiser were? :P

[HungusMaximist]

It was a sweet ride apart from everybody missing the turn off into 'the strand' to get on to the NW motorway, and ended up de-touring through the bottom of the CBD.

Bit of a surprise when the lights started going red...

But everybody got there in the end, har har.

Top Kudos to you PirateJafa for the pillion ride... Azaan was still revved about it late Sunday night :niceone: Really apprec the efforts, especially given the time you got back to Auck the night before!!

[Hanne]

My sister set her alarm for 6.30am, she was so excited about this ride.

Dad and I were coming back along the NW as the first bikes came through, tooted, waved... and then the bikes stopped. Were going over Newton overpass and cops had closed onramp but there were NO BIKES! wtf?

Hahahaha trust the SMC guys to be in the thick of those who got lost. WOuldn't be an SMC event without a decent detour (Dargaville, anyone? :innocent:)

Oh no, now Rach is closing her eyes :pinch:


haha... many many many dirty comments come to mind, but alas i shall refrain!


You could combine the two photos and make a super-photo where none of you are blinking!

i was thinking along the same lines, except, with both of them blinking. we could turn it into the biggest punker of a pic, where yui's eyes are closed and his hand is reaching out for a big biker's (in leathers, n a cruiser, ofcoarse)... Arse!!! hahah, and in the same instant, rach feeling around for a pole or another one of them lady friends!

(just a possibility of my thoughts is all, lets hope NOBODY GETS OFFENDED BY IT AND RED REPS A PISS ABOUT JOKE COMMENT!!!!!!):whistle: - u think that was subtle enough?


...... TITTIES!!!!:rockon:
