Probably looking to head out...erm today. Exact route not decided yet, I just need to get out as I've only ridden once in the last 6 weeks.
Likely to be Port Waikato for fish'n'greasies then return.
Won't suit slow riders if you don't know the way.
Leaving Caltex Mt Wellington (near the motorway), time to be advised (watch this space), I will try and confirm by 11am. Aiming for leaving time of around 12-1pm.
Weather dependant - may be cancelled due to inclement weather.

Where did you guys disappear off to? That was rather confusing!
Girlygirl! You work with Wazza Martin, don't you?
Good ride nonetheless. Affman didn't run out of fuel as he feared he might. Nice to put more names to faces.

...........pausing for a microsecond to wonder who in thier right mind would be riding a BANANNAMOBILE bright yella CBR600RR around whitford..........
Yeah glad that was you dude, otherwise the stand-up-on-the-seat-wave-arms-like-a-freak-dance-a-jig-while-pulling-a-mono move would have been in vain! :spudwave:

Sorry didnt notice the patch, but thats just me.. would rather look where I was going.. Had a friend on the back, and as she just had a baby (thus a new mum), so was taking it "easy" lol... aff-man likes the look of the back of the busa as well :buggerd:

what can i say.............
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl*(edit bus)* walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung

I was also out at Port Waikato about 1.30pm and had just spoken to a Tuakau volunteer fireman via cell who queried if I had seen an ambo as he had just been paged to a bike accident at the Port.2 mins later an ambo flew past me heading into the township. Hope your ok whoever you are :doctor:

not us, but did see the ambo while having lunch at the cafe with someone in the back, who ever and what ever happened hope they are ok

Not likely to be a motorcycle accident. I remember passing your FXR on our way in. The Fish'n'greasies place by the surf club was closed, so we headed back ot the cafe at the wharf. I'm absolutely certain we saw the ambo before we saw any other motorcyclists go past. I counted 3 motorcyclists in and the same 3 out after that.
Someone may have assumed it was a motorcyclist since there were so many of out out there today.
This does of course exclude some traily rider decking it on a farm somewhere.
