I'll be there next time mate.

I'm still sorting out my split with partner and hav'nt got the Duc with me at the moment.

Hope to get it this weekend. I miss my baby.

Still got to get it to run in the cold :cold: better as well i will get on to that when i get it.

Have fun guys

PS: A metal truck has droped fine chip on the Rotorua direct Rd for about 5ks on the Rotorua end so keep an eye out for it if coming this way.

PPS: Also watch out for ice in the gorge. Had my 4x4 side ways across the 1 lane bridge the other day and just missed the armcos on both sides.

Hey woody, do you do some 4x4ing around Tauranga, or is it just for the groceries? I have been looking at trying some around here when the bike is finished as it would be nice to get the diff lock lubed!

Some of my mates do but i missed the last trip they went on. We will be doing some over night trips in the summer should be fun.

Most of the time it is full of builders tools.

Haha, if I had a hilux, I would give it a go, but unfortunatly I now have a pajero, which has the ground clearance of a hedgehog.. I also had to sell the set of mud tyres to fund the restoration project. I'll follow someone else in there though! :yes:

Did about 400k and got back around 4 PM.

We went to raglon in a round about way had to go through about 10 minutes of fog after Morrinsvile but apart from that it was eyes on stalks. :rofl:

Hope it all goes well today

We had a quick ride to Ohope (see photos), but I had a meeting at 1pm so took off early... going a little too fast (see photos again) $300 speeding and $400 no class 6.

Oh well... thats expected

Looking forward to the next ride :)

3rd July 2005, 16:38
ahhh shit mate.... but what was the last thing we said??? lol

was it the cop that let me away with the 130k?

we had a great ride, we didn't go all the way as wayne had to get home early ... and luke ....... his worms were telling me they were hungry..

stopped at a place just outside of whakatane (SP?)

saw a few cops and one nice one turn on his radar while i was doing a little bit more than i should have... ( i was leading....) why didn't he stop me/us??????
was it because there was more than one bike and we were all doing different speeds... ie everyone was slowing .. and i was speeding up?? lol:whistle:
but i was looking at the detecter and my speedo ... when it came on... i was over 130....... should have my eyes on the road hell i was lucky!!!!

coming back we went threw to the rotorua and pyes pa , to my place for coffee....freck it got COLD:cold: couldn't feel my fingers...
was told that when i buttoned off, FLAMES came out the pipe:weird: ?? WTF?? why would that happen????????????

i had a great ride, everyone behaved themselves!... except for wayne by the looks of it....
thanks guys! next time you can take the lead and show me where i should be riding(the roads!!!!:nono: )

Could have been the same cop... Good guy anyway, he let me ride home.

I suppose I needed the push to get my shit together... getting a $400 fine will do that :clap:

I deserved the $300 speed fine, lucky he didnt clock me a little sooner, I was up around the 160-170 mark... but I didnt tell him that :devil2:

What?

Yeah pain in the arse... Im flying to Wellington next week for work and am going to Melborne in a month for a holiday (wife not impressed $$$ :mad: ) so I'll need to get my arse into gear and get my class6 sometime in between. :yes:

Yeh mate I can sympathise believe me.

I lost my licence for going a little to quick a while ago and my wife, while she was understanding was very concerned at my riding habits :mad: :no:

Melbourne, great place lots of art and different culture we went there a last year (only for a week) had a fantastic time.

Good luck mate :drinkup:
