Sunny and blustery on this side mate- good riding weather actually

Southerly direction so you'll be fine on the Featherston side of the hill but cross the to very carefully- or take Pahiatua track and zoom down SH1 might be safer mate

It was a successful ride to the track- Cheffy peeled off at Foxton to hed to his girlies pad

His wee Hyo kept up till we hit Himitangi- and farewell lol

My buddy Stev joined up to KB and came along on his Ducati-
Met Quasi and AJ at the track

I was offered a ride on a bucket but had no suitable legware (will soon tho)

ANyway great day had by all and SketchY SnR's Hog led the way up the island from Kapiti with grace and ease

No need for any guildelines when everyone just uses the brain they were born with

Great day---- yawn----zzzzzzz

Learner rules are there for a reason. Otherwise you would step up to a bigger more powerful machine that you haven't yet got got the skill set to handle them.

Bryce pointed Sinfull out to me (was two seats away) but we had to get going to lift the siege on our Babysitter :D
So I didnt have time to introduce meself
Will make the effort next time I see him and ask for that tour of the back roads ;)

I had reasons for SH1 tho - had an new buddy riding with me (we hadnt rode together before) and a new bike (the ST with loaded top box) and the missus 2 up and and and ...(lack of kahuna's?) :lol:

Yes good wee ride home:whistle: Yes I enjoyed our little foray home thank you, i had held off the odd temptation of chasing, when the chap on the Gixer (?) took off on the odd occasion, but when we went around that way, i couldn't help but give it a squirt through them sweepers (it's the suspension set up test track, that one). We did bypass one turn off there which brings ya out right at the BP, saving a little more work in that sunday traffic Jam !

Awww righto, think i saw you and yr lady get up and leave, Just along from me !
Haha ya wanna be carefull saying that, mate beleived me when i nodded "i think its that way" and we ended up at dreyers rock en route to Pahiatua from Dannevirke last week ! (that fella on the adventure bike sure looked like he knew where he was going, knew the bloody road thats for sure, haha we sure weren't in a hurry to take heed of signposts)
That little detour behind Otaki is only a ten minute ride, if that, but can save ya thirty minutes or more sitting in a car and a traffic jam on a sunday evening !!!

It's less about skill and more about self control I guess.

I was working last Sunday but look forward to see you folks later on some Wednesday or Thursday night ride.
