Nice to meet you guys this evening. Ripper Roo92 really enjoyed the ride too; unfortunately for me the sun strike spoiled it a bit and I could barely see your brake lights up ahead! (And right at this moment in time with surgery on my broken collarbone due in early dec I really can do without coming off again!)

Hope there were no further incidents on the way home for all.

[caseye]

Yes, well , um there were no further hiccups on tonights ride, but a very uncharacteristic ride it was.
Main thing is everyone who started the ride finished it and everyone got home in one piece.
Looking forward to catching up with all the OLD (guy) faces next week now that the daylight hours are upon us and it's stopped raining.

I was coming, got on the bike but it went in the wrong direction, instead of going down the drive, it went straight into the garage, where it was out of the wind, and thats where it stayed, I couldn't get it out

Sound like its all going well, keep up the good work don't need me, every week seems someone new joins the group.

should be there next week

...a very uncharacteristic ride it was.

Yep, couldn't agree more. Bugger.

[caseye]

EWE take it easy young man and come back with a nice shiny refreshed one next week K.
John we missed ya mate.

[Thani-B]

Yep, couldn't agree more. Bugger.

Yeah, bloody hell. I think I should have just gone home after work instead of stopping at the Autobahn...

Ah well, at least I got a go on III's bike. Sorry about that too btw! Didnt mean to

It's ok Thani we won't tell that you dropped III's bike honest

[PirateJafa]

It'll be just our secret.

I was looking at those carbon fiber bits and cringing!

[idleidolidyll]

I was never worried even though I knew there was a good chance it would fall over: that was always likely to happen when Thani stopped but unlikely while moving (hell, i can't even touch flat footed both sides and i'm at least 25cm taller).

Anyway, I've never been precious about my bikes, it's a chook chaser and with those wide bars and crash knobs, it's almost impossible to hurt it with just a fall.

So apart from the mirror which had vibrated itself apart and needed replacing anyway; there's not another mark on the bike at all.

got up too late for the Sat am ride, better go gather with the grey beards at the Big Canoe in Manuaku I guess

[caseye]

Yeah guess thats more your style these days ah Old man! LOL knew you wouldn't be precious about the KT Ideli, hope the time was more suited to you late risers.
Hammytron was good and Din,(I heard ya's! who?) Sharper, me and Steve had a damn fine run down there.
