OK. so here goes. anyone up for a ride out somewhere this sunday...tomorrow? The keepng up with the fastest rider thing doesnt cut it for me. my idea of a group ride is, an agreed destination.some stop off's on the way maybe. No one should have anything to proove. let the fast ones go, no racing to keep up and consequently get hurt, no pressures. everyone should always ride their own ride.......just a ride out with some like minded people. chat about bike stuff and other worldly things. happy to take advice and give it .....(if asked).

who's up for a ride then?

What time are you looking at heading out Lee? I'm not available until after lunch, but am keen. Even if I meet up with you fella's somewhere that might be ok, if you can put up with me on my 250 that is.... Mind you, one of the teenagers is supposed to be coming home from holiday today, so that might put a spanner in the works! Meh!

Weather doesn't look too bad this morning. Have a nice ride...

Oh, dang... just saw this! I've been out riding my new (to me :D) 650 today. Don't think that would've fitted in with a ride through the gorge though.

I'm going on a ladies ride on that weekend (12-14th) and we (the ladies) will be meeting up with the guys at Matawai on Sunday on our way back. You might check with Steve to see if he's coming through Lee.

ok, that would be cool. i havent got a lot of tread left on me tyres and ive got a track day to do in march so got to be a bit stingy with the rides until then. after that, i ll probably need a new set of rubber all round and then its all go!
