South Auckland Thursday Night Ride

**caseye** · 1st May 2014, 21:27

Nope, sadly I was busy removing bits from wifeys bike now that bike trans have successfully removed the left hand side mirror and rear indicator as well as cutting a perfectly good lock that was around the bike and a fence post. Key was just 12 feet behind the bike, but the instructions were obviously too hard for the pickerupperer to understand.
Never mind it's back home and now it's time to fix it.
Just not sure where to start or how to go about it.

Same this week, radiator out, pipes off and rear end in a sling, engine out by weekend.
Good news, is no rubbish or metal bits in oil or filter.

Shittt is it Thursday already, still got a bit of work to finish yet, another week away from Thursday night ride... To many interruptions today

weather is looking better for tonight now, I could do with a ride, anyone keen ?

It's been far too long.
Not that I live in Auckland.
Or have a bike anymore

But fingers crossed I'll have a new one by the end of the year.
Might even manage to come up to Auckland for a couple of weeks so I can join a ride, if they are still going.

How is everyone?

Thani-B you were a SATNR rider fromm the day you arrived, piloting that little ol GN like a pro and making grown men cry with your speed and handling skills.
Always a pleasure and a privilage to have you ride with us.
Get that bike and get home for some rides, K.

**caseye** · 25th September 2014, 16:19

So SATNR'ers, anyone coming out to play?

**leathel** · 25th September 2014, 16:26

I was thinking its a nice night for a ride

If paperwork goes OK I will be there

Bit Rusty for a while there, but following ol lethal was a breeze once I got the cob webs out, love those roads around Clevedon, Kaiaua, Kawakawa.
Pub was nice and warm too.
And again next week?

Yup was a good ride and nice to be on dry roads..... the road must have had a fair bit of shit on it in the weekend after the big blow but clear enough for last night..

good warm up for Sundays ride but I fear the roads may not be so dry

Yup should be there next and it will be lighter too

(not that the dark worries me with the new light setup

)

Fellas, anyone doing the Pink Ribbon ride tomorrow? I may or may not have a bike and currently be up in Auckland...
Hope to see some of you there!

Sadly was away in Bathurst observing how car drivers race those big V8 thingies over a big hill.
Wasn't bad, but I reckon given me bandit and some good tyres i'd be up for it.
Hope we see you at a Thursday nighter again soon Thani.
Got room on back seat if you you want.

Pink Ribbon was OK, I was Marshaling mid ride so only got the ride the last half, reasonable turnout but being a fundraiser ride I was a bit mystified that more didn't put hands in pockets for badges, tee shirts or raffle tickets.... Less than $10 per bike raised and I know lots that had pillions that did buy both..... then the food etc 2K down this year from memory?

I have work to do to my bike that I have been trying to do for a while.... so not sure if I ride tonight or do the upgrade

**caseye** · 16th October 2014, 16:53

Upgrade time mate, plenty of long summer nights coming up, too knackered to ride tonight, may do Tron on Sunday to see Don's drag bike and catch up with the LOR guys and girls, you?
