Any young chick riders in Auckland?

[Gucci]

Hi people.
Im Ky
A 22 year old living in central Auckland.

Just wondering if there might be any young chick riders out there?
I just bought a Harley and dont have many people my age to ride with... or even 10 years older.

So please reply so I can make some new biker mates :)
Always keen to go on trips, or you can join me on some of my rides :)

Would just like some people who I can relate to a little better. :drinkup: :D

Wow you r rich!
Anyway is there anyone live around birkenhead?
I got a bike 6 months ago and im still not brave enough to ride it over the bridge ;(

wait for a day when it's not too windy. pick your lane well before getting on. stay clear of 4x4s.
there's nothing to it.

practice sis!

city riding is shit. the only good bit is lane splitting up to stop lights etc past miles-long car queues.

and speaking of this. forgive me if it's been answered or in another thread (i haven't searched) but is there a shadow-program going on anywhere in NZ... where people can sign up to follow n00bs on their bikes, imparting wisdom, and being paid beer.
and n00bs can sign up to be followed to buy beer and receive wisdom?

I do :2thumbsup I just got a bike. I've done a bit of practice in a carpark and I'm aiming to get my learners in the midsemester break (after exams).
Once I've got that, I'd be really keen to get in as much practice as possible cause I'll need the confidence to commute into the city.

As for the first question - 21 living on the North Shore :)

Im sure if you asked nicely a couple of local riders would convoy you over and back. :woohoo:

If you want I will ask about to see if any shore based riders can help out, if not then Im sure I can come up one evening to help.

Its not at all hard. In fact probably one of the easiest sections of road in Auckland. Everybody is going the same way.

Hahahaha not rich, but I am very good at budgeting.
I am in Birkdale, which as you know, is next to Birkenhead. I am more than happy to ride with you if you need moral support. Bridge or no bridge.

[Paper Wings]

:niceone: good on ya! You done your confidence certificate yet?

Nope, haven't even got my basic handling yet. I should be able to pass though.
What does the confidence course entail?

[hellokitty]

lmfao.

My mates and I often shadow newbies - or we put the newbie in the middle so we are the buffer. Loud and obnoxious at the back to prevent tailgaters and the quiet experienced bike at the front. Works well.

[haydes55]

Confidence certificate, basic handling test same thing. Seriously recommend getting that done from a good place like Passrite as the 1st thing you do, they teach you slow riding skills and the style to use before testing you. A lot of fun as well.

[TOTO]

Great to see a youngin riding a Hog!

no its not

Yes it is.

Actually it's not. Basic Handling Skills is mandatory to obtain your learner's licence. The confidence course is optional, provided by some providers to assist you in improving your control of your bike.

I would not recommend Passrite for riding training, and would recommend some of the more motorcycle specific people, with more experience, such as Rider Training, Riderskills or the like.

I went to Passrite in Hamilton and must of done both on the same day then. The instructor was very helpful and said he teaches stunt riding aswell so my guess is he was very motorbike specific. Guessing Auckland Passrite has room for improvement?

I got a bike 6 months ago and im still not brave enough to ride it over the bridge ;(

The bridge isn't that bad ;)


The first time I went across I was pretty nervous for a whole lot of reasons...getting squished, blown over by the wind, choosing the wrong lane but in hindsight I had nothing to worry about :2thumbsup

It is pretty simple really, once you've done it you will realise it isn't that hard or scary! It sounds like you've had some people offer to take you across, I think that's a great idea. Especially with a loud Harley at the back...:cool:

I am going to beg to differ on the bridge. Per km it is as dangerous as any piece of road I know.
Actually, I don't use it much now, but reckon I have crossed it on 2 wheels about 2000 times.
Pleased to say that so far I have always made it.

Usually it is just fine, but here are some things that have happened to me on the Ak Harbour Bridge:
* struck on the ankle by a piece of 4x2 off a builder's ute - hobbled for 2 days afterwards
* hit by a tennis ball sized rock squeezed out like an orange pip from a truck tyre (bruise on leg)
* overtaken by a motorcyclist southbound at peak hour doing over 100mph (estimated)
* overtaken on scooter at speed & then nearly pushed into side as car returned to my lane out of space
* truck & trailer attempt to overtake my scooter at 100 kph (truck was not actually fast enough)
* Was desperate & crossed (motorcycle) in a cylone (160kph gusts) (Yes I was crazy - not allowed now)

That is just what I can remember off the cuff. Please be very careful out there! Far worse than this happens.

Lets not scare smh off the bridge mmmk?
I do it twice a day everyday, I've been sweet everyday. You've just gotta be observant and remember the wind factor.
Don't forget, a lot of that could happen on a normal bit of road too. Keep your eyes peeled, don't ride like a retard, don't lane split and you'll be sweet.

You should go to the Pink Ribbon Ride - a breast cancer rundraising ride on the 14th October. Lots of ladies (and men) to meet, and potential riding friends....... you could ride at the back if crowds worry you. There will be plenty of different clubs there. You could also go to the Hyosung shop in Barrys Point Rd, Takapuna as I believe they have a club that does rides.

[koz3lla]

Hey ladies!!

I need young riding girls in ChCh, I'm a member of SWIFTS but, well, it's like hanging out with my mums.
Granted I havn't actually been on a ride with them but it'd be great to go for a ride with some young girls??

Have been riding for years, still on a 250 but um.. its all about how you use it!! :bleh:

I know this isnt girl orientated, but Id suggest considering for rides with The Swarm peeps on a Monday night

Ive ridden with a few groups, and when I was still learning they were the most sensible, and you learn a fair amount about riding with sensible experienced riders, rather than other people who are just starting out. That and you learn some sweet new riding routes at the same time.

Just wondering if there might be any young chick riders out there?
I just bought a Harley and dont have many people my age to ride with... or even 10 years older.

So please reply so I can make some new biker mates :)

Yep, same one. Unfortunate about his accident, he was organising an office group ride at the end of last year but was obviously cancelled. A shame not seeing that bike in the carpark any longer, was really quite fond of it. A mate of mine almost bought it too, but luckily for you he was too late. Glad it's still rolling around Auckland though. :)

For sure on my days off I'll go where ever the road goes

I think nerrrd and I will go away around Anzac Day. Anzac Day is a Thursday but I am also taking Friday off and I don't work Sat/Sun. We are going to try camping, go to a motorcamp though so there's probably other accom. around. Let me know if you're keen we still haven't 100% decided where we will go.

Could be a go.... Where would you like to go riding?

[Juniper]

I fails at the making of the decisions.

Somewhere either well lit or smooth road. Dark and bumpy is not my idea of fun!!

[bosslady]

Hey you two, I'd be up for that if you don't mind? Might be more like 5:15pm, 5:30ish till I can get there though... Keep your mitts off me though please fireball, I can be hard to resist but I'm more straight than I am bendy, sorry :P:P:P:P:P (you know I am joking!)

The only place smooth and/or well lit after 530 would be the motorways.. And the traffic at that time would be arse....
If the ride is not too intense and windy may bring the wife on the back as not to scare you both!!!

Anyone else got any ideas on somewhere to ride?

In preparation for possibly a scary dark ride I'm getting my lights installed today. Fingers crossed that they work.

Trust me when I say on a level of 0 to 5 in terms of scariness, it's a -100. I rode over it yesterday in that awful weather we've been having and somehow, I got over the other side unscathed ;)

We're you with someone and had big saddle bags on? I saw these 2 and felt so sorry for them. We had all slowed down because no one could see in front of them.

[Juniper]

I'm vain. I want it to look purdy.

Yes I'm being coy because if they don't work out as expected then I don't have to put my tail between my legs.

The worst I had was being in Lane 4 then all of a sudden being in lane 3 then having the truck in front of me loose it's load and almost take off my head

Nope, I was alone.

I'd say that's a pretty rare occurrence and one that could easily be repeated on any road in the country ;)

Don't try to scare the newbies off! :bleh:

We could all get on 250s and ride along the bridge in a pack formation. I reckon we'd look like a gang. People would be too afraid to overtake us.

All started by me lol

[fireball]

So who is keen for a ride today?

was thinking a nice easy ride up East Coast Bays Road up to Orewa then down the motorway back to Auckland.. so you can get some almost open road riding in before it gets too dark and you can have the smooth well lit motorway on the way back.

Clever eh!:bleh:

Oh I would absolutely LOVE to do this, I actually first heard about it when I did my learners theory teset at the AA - The lovely lady behind the counter gave me a heads up about it, and there is little more that gets my attention than when a lovely lady starts talking about bikes :msn-wink:
Sadly however, I believe I will be recovering from surgery around this time as it currently stands, so I won't be riding for 3 months! Not too sure yet how I will make it that long without my beloved...


As for a ride this Sunday, I could be keen after I wake up from nightshift. Let me know, the weather looks like it will be fab!
