Thats Sunday week.

A couple of us are planning a trip up to taranaki and back. Will be a casual pace with no intention of going over 100k/hr and probably cruising at 120k/hr.

There is just 2 of us for the moment but if you want to go for a cruise on Sunday 29/1/6 then drop me a line. It is going to be a good day.

Umm maybe Lance. I'm getting back to NZ in a couple days so hopefully might be able to get my bike back on the road by then (Hopefully) depends on how much money it takes to get it all sorted. If I can I'll be keen.

Would love to, but I'm off first thing Sunday (29th) to head to the Mainland for a week. I will be thinking of ya while I'm crusing down the Kaikora coast on a sunny Sunday afternoon (hopefully).

About 2 1/2 hours at legalish speeds to New Plymouth. Look us up when you get to NP if your'e coming that far.

I met you at davids place one time. Bring that 2 smoker along.

Takes a couple of hours to get up there. Maybe 2 1/2. Got a mate on a farm where we are actually going to that will be happy to supply coffee and the like. Probably spend hour there having a coffee and chat (he is a really funny guy.. well worth the trip just to meet this character) and then head home. Probably leaving about 9ish.. back by 3 or 4.

a plan has been formed. We are leaving ashhurst for Palmytown at 8am. Stopping at Caltex on Main Street ( the first one on the left as you go into town from my end) I think it is Ruahine St?? for a smoke and chat.

Will Wait till 8.30am. Then we are off. If you are there then it will be a pleasure to have you along. If you are not then we will enjoy the day without you.

by the sound of some of your posts you wouldnt enjoy this ride anyway. We are going to cruise. We are going to sit on 100-120k/hr (not 160-200k/hr) and enjoy a bit of scenery. We are going to marvel in my neighbours Kawaka 1500 as it roars down the road.

No land speed records on this run.

We made it back to Palmy Ok. Had some refreshments and a natter at KLOWNs abode and then off home for a much needed nanna nap. RG150s are the bomb. ;) Kept up to our "casual" pace no worries at all. Hmmm, and the smell of 2-stroke smoke was just wonderfull. :drinknsin

The day rocked. Many thanx to Klown, Bonez and Nadroj and James for the ride. Max respect for the little RG!!

My odo reads 513.0 km. All in a days work.

Cheers for the photos Nadroj. You got any more? Who is that sexy beast in the photo? You could have got one without a fag in my mouth??? Actually.. thinking about it, you probably didn't have a chance..

Well it sounds like you guys had a great time. I'm gutted I couldn't go, stupid bike. Ended up spending the day trimming the hedge at my parents house in marton instead.

Hey guys, I had a great time and it was a great day!!!! I can't believe how good it felt to stretch my legs after the time spent on the rg. Hope we can all go out for another ride sometime and maybe organise a bbq for after.
Nice pics nadroj should've got some of your bike and you in there!! also thanks for the offer of a bbq bonez would've been a great ending to a great day.

Bit of a bugger Dave. Btw, the "250" you guys tangled with on the Coast to Coast went rather well ;)
