Doubt it. Pub doesn't open till 11am. In which case I guess I should crack on with an assignment.

Hi all, Well thanks to everyone who helped make this ride possible - I certainly enjoyed myself.
I was given a quick sharp lesson on how to take corners by Motoracer

and spent most of the day trying to keep Spankme within eyeshot.

Cheers guys, and I'll see at the next one!!

BTW it doesn't take much skill to power it out on the straights, and most 1000cc sportsbikes will pull away from the 600cc's in the higher gears (we're talking about real high road speeds here).

good on ya mate

I like to think i'm a little cautious around blind corners but everynow and then i have an experience that suggests thats not the case (knee all the way down drifting wide on a left hander - oops, theres a car!).
I agree about the cc difference but i think its more often than not driven by who's brave enough to open the tap properly and use what they've got. As is generally the way, few of us probably use our bikes to their full ability even when trying (me included- Pukekohe showed me that!).

OK FF you can stop you're moaning now. Hey Hamish you better watch out FF has taken a shine to Lynda!!

**Andrew** · 5th April 2004, 23:05

More photos... Lyna had a very nice pair of $699 sun glasses. FF was very dissapointed when you didn't nominate him to model them for the KB site.

**Andrew** · 5th April 2004, 23:08

FF slashed MR's tyre. Now why would you want to buy time to hang around Morrinsville - beats me? Hey Lynda did you enjoy your stay with your Father in Morrinsville?

LB · 6th April 2004, 06:12

Thanks for the piccies Andrew.

Yep, the few hours we spent in M'ville were good.

A great ride both up and back. No tickets that we're aware of, and can't wait till Easter (though the weather sounds like it might be crap.....)

With a wee bit of imagination, this pic can look a bit rude.

**MadDuck** · 6th April 2004, 22:31

It was nice to meet up with all you guys at Morrinsville and put a face to the names. Thanks for organising this FF.

Would have been great to met up with you too Linda if I could find my damn way out of..where the hell was I? Oh somewhere near Puke

While we were waiting for the dumbass tyre repair dude at beaurepairs.
I was passing time by shit stirring the boy racers. Now these boy racers just seem to loop the town every 5 mins, a very SAD existance in your teen life if you ask me.

Anyway managed to wind up one guy. I chased him up the main drag and round the corner into a parking lot. In the carpark was a cop which instantly put on his lights pulled the boy racer up. I didn't stick around to find out what happened next. I did a U turn and was out of there like a shot.

Good feeling and a good laugh.
