Wednesday Night Ride

[helenoftroy]

Hope I wasn't holding you up Helen.

I reckon the speed of light would hold her up! And she'd look pretty casual about it too

Gibbo89!enjoyed following you home!
Your riding is excellent buddy!And Sheez!my old thumper is sprocketed down for off-road stuff so shes quite happy to cruise at the speed you were doing

Lol!Peeteey DRs do not travel at the speed of light!(but you do say the nicest things)

Hope my Orthopaedic Surgeon still loves me when he hears I was back riding again 6 days after a Menisectomy!

CeeYay arrived as we were sitting in the garden at Little River....a beautiful v-twin soundtrack,his new ride is huge,naked and very very sexy

Just dont let the bike shopping Retroqueen anywhere near it please!!!

You're very welcome darling. I do maintain that you could ride a rock and it would go quick!

I was wondering if that was you! I saw you looking at me with a look of either recognition or amusement (I get that often on a bike like mine) so when I thought about it later, I figured it could have been you.

Did you have a nice ride?

Lol I like the Monty Python excerpts, but no Parrots?

Shame you didn't film CeeJays new bike, I think I can guess what it is....

Hee hee, no parrots. Couldn't think of how to make them fit without being totally random!

I did go out for a look but totally forgot to take the camera and I think that by the time I did go out with the helmet on and camera rolling he'd already gone.

Shame, it is rather pretty

Speaking of pretty bikes, where were you?

Nice to meet the new people, what a small world Chch is


Video is on the way up too, should be there tomorrow so long as Youtube's uploader doesn't f**k it up again ...

Hi from one of the "new faces". Will certainly repeat the experience - in a few weeks time after the holiday away...


...so long as the video footage is kind to the newbie!

Ha ha, notice I only left in footage of you leaving me behind?

That wasn't hard to do, all the footage was like that!

I'll keep you on. Made me look positively like I know what I'm doing.

It's a nice record - see you again.

Ah - A new bike is the next best thing to a new baby. Actually, not new at all, just new to me. She's an '06 Yam MT-01 with just 6.8k km and as you can see, pretty near mint. The best analogy is a Harley type motor in a sport frame with sport suspension & brakes. It handles like a dream in the twisties and pulls like a train... what more could a man want

The bike has been parked up for a week in lieu of parental duties, but I will be along next Wed and will hopefully put some more km on it before then too

Incidentally, I noticed with the Gopro footage (nice and clear) that the distances seem to be stretched out, is that something to do with the lens type?

Ah ha, congrats! It looks mint. This isn't the one that you were originally looking at tho, is it??
