For all my friends that I actually know my belongings are being uplifted to Pukekohe... so anyone that drops in... I won't be at Oakland Road anymore! Hope to make the rally on Saturday but its not looking good. Have a great weekend everyone.... Kim
No sleep... moving house... work... kids.... and I go and book my restricted.. .what was I thinking! Ha I was thinking lets get that dam L plate off after 7 months.... whew it felt good. Always like dropping 5kg...
Booked ... Paid for ... application done... am I nervous, HELL YES! Why I have no idea, I guess its better to worry about it, then go in all guns blazing, over confident. I am just going to ride, as I normally do, and hope that it goes well. Its a big few weeks, packing to move, restricted, ACC, IRD stuff... so I hope I sleep the night before, have a habit of getting butterflies before a big game... well this is the same. No pep talk is going to help... just getting my head in the right space. ...
Got on the 650 had a wee blat.. ah bliss had a few wines... sat on the 650 and grinned... ain't life great! I figure no matter what life offers you ... you have to take it... and smile. Happy Easter
the wine got poured, the gloves came off, the boots hung loose... and the laptop got opened. What a day!!!! Made it over the Harbour Bridge first time, easy! Even dodged 20 odd bikes prior going west, then got annoyed with slow traffic and left the man behind. Gett to puhoi, ah a nice coldie... ah then the bride to be turned up, then another bus load of guys half cut already on a stag doo. FUN... the days! 2 hrs at Puhoi was enough, thought we would cruise home via those nice west ...
Made my first ride to Paeroa.. easy.. thanks to all the bikers that gave me the thumbs up... awesome "made my day". Obviously I took lots of photos of dobsy, and my fav pink side car.... Tracey you rock! The heat didn't hit us till 1.30pm, when the trees just didn't do its job, so we plodded off in the heat to the pub, catching up with Maha, Mom, Madduck, & Pussy on the way... nice to once again see you guys. Harbour Bridge definitely next... I promise Mom. Boman, hope you made it home in one ...
Can ya believe stroud does a wheelie on the Britten right in front of me... and I decide to put my camera down... arg. Great couple of days, sticky and hot in bike gear, but well worth saying ya just another smelly biker chick ha. Had to say following Dobsy race against the Paton... was pretty awesome, leading all the way thru to the last lap... ah well beat him in the next race tho. Pretty impressed with the noise, and even how fast those classics can ...
Thanks to Geordie, boman, greywolf, .... really enjoyed my day out, always wanted to do the Kaiaua loop as a rider, and not pillion, and now I can say I have done it. Loads of bikes out, fantastic weather, and good company. But I heard the Puhoi went off today, even the HA made a appearence, its just that dang motorway gets in the way of a really good country ride... I can't wait to try it on a different bike tho.. (kaiaua). Watch out Raglan you might be my next challenge.
