[aff-man]

Is a public holiday. Gonna go for a short blat. Maybe round to kaiua and then we'll see from there. No more than 2 or 3 hours ... just getting the cob webs out.

This will be a medium fast ride and there will be 1 maybe 2 stops and we won't be waiting every 5 seconds...

[Drunken Monkey]

Indeed. Take it to the Scottish thread:

(that took a loooong time to find, bloody little Billy's "search" function doesn't scan P.D.)

[aff-man]

you guys mind taking this shit to another thread??:Oi:

[beyond]

:laugh:

What a hoot. A ride gets posted for Friday 14th and it turns into a full on discussion on the finer points of Easter and misquotes from the Old Testament thrown in to boot. Probably one of the only times the semi religious go to Church is over Easter, that and their wedding and lets not forget their funeral, where if they have been good boys, they might get to see their maker.

I may be able to make the ride if it's not too early. Need a good sleep in and the roads may take a while to dry off through the Orere Point gorge.

What time and where are you meeting?

[aff-man]

:laugh:

What time and where are you meeting?

At about lunch time.... don't want to hit the early birds going away for the weekend. And It'll only be a couple of hours...

Seeing as this thread has gone to the dogs if you want to come PM me and i'll give you a time and place to meet.

[beyond]

Ok, I'll try and organise things and if it's all go, I'll PM for a meeting place.
It's a nice run that and quite short too. :)

When we get to kaiua we might pop over to mercer and a bit depending on time /weather maybe a few other back roads I know.

Yep blame me....I go to Church every Sunday or if a bike ride is on I do the Sunday Live in pm..........this ride seems possible.

[aff-man]

meet at clevedon shell at 1:15 leving 1:30

[Grahameeboy]

Cool.....I hope to make it

[aff-man]

ok due to me buying more bike stuff it'll just be the loop tomorrow.

for me anyway.

clevedon -> kawakawa -> kaiua -> castle -> hanua -> clevdon

And possiblt through marai tai (sp) on the way back or something.

[Toast]

Riding on a public holiday? bah...last time I tried that I ended up running straight back home with the new 'friends' I'd made after about 10 minutes. Sticking to the water this weekend, it's still free out there :niceone: Stay out of trouble guys.

[XTC]

.....so Eve bought a Honda and God was unhappy.........geeze doesn't say that in my study bible..............now where is Honda 13.1:3...........
Suppose it was a Honda Eve? Might have to see if I'm allowed out today. Sposed to be packing the car for our south island trip starting tomorrow.

[The Pastor]

I may be getting a bike today, I'd like to go but.... where is clevedon?

[beyond]

Clevedon is out from Papakura, heading East towards Maraetai.
It's about 12 kms East from papakura.

I take it you have ridden before? Probably not the best place to take a new bike, even if you have ridden before. It can be a demanding piece of road especially if you do not know it and secondly, on a new machine you won't be completely familiar with yet.

If you are ok with that, by all means come.


Affman, it looks like I can come so I'll be there at 1.15pm.

[aff-man]

I may be getting a bike today, I'd like to go but.... where is clevedon?

hmmm yeh this ride isn't unfortuntaley for newer riders....

see you all at 1:15.

[beyond]

Another great day for riding. :)

That was cool. Good to meet even more faces from the forum. Really good turnout considering it sounded like only half a dozen or so were coming.

A lot of traffic about today, but expected I suppose.

Thanks all for a good day out. Went a bit pear shaped at the end as far as ride finishing points were concerned but that's no worry as long as everyone got back okay and didn't get peeved for missing catch up points. :)

Till next time, keep safe.

[GIXser]

yeah all, great ride , im impressed with "beyonds ridin" and (dont know ya name mr ducati as well) impressive,
until next all"

[Scouse]

Yup good ride Aff. I Had a bumhole puckering moment whitch slowed me down for a while but managed to come out the other side of it all intact good to meet some new faces and good to catch up with you again Garry Man those roads between Mercer and Pukekawa and Tuakau are mint well gotta kleen me bike now and also me new Arai now iv'e mentiond Arai this was me first ride with the new helmet and it seems alot quieter than me ole Shoei XR1000 not so much high frequency whistleing so alls good

[aff-man]

yeh more people turned out than expected....

A bit much traffic and some interesting roadworks locations made the ride a bit more interesting..

Yeh all kind of went to shit at the end.... Hope everyone got home ok.

Was a good ride though but it stressed 2 points. I need a steering damper with that gearing and I need a bigger bike.. Was running at about 11-12000 revs the whole time.:bash: :bash: . Was really likeing the extra oomph the larger sprocket was giving me out of the corners though.

See you all on the next one.

[beyond]

Thanks Gixser. Ground clearance is about my only issue on the fuel tanker :)

Some nice wheelies there mate.

The guy on the Ducati is Gary. He normally rides a red metallic R1 and is one of the few people I know who has no chicken strips on his tyres, rear and front! He's real hard to keep up with once he gets going and impossible to stay with when he really cranks up. i.e. particularly when his detector goes off. :)

[aff-man]

Yeh that guy in the ducati was pretty impressive tried following him for a while but man that thing just pulls out of corners..... sounds superb as well.

Yep, hear about your offroad excursion. Sounds like it looked fantastic and the best part of all, is you kept it together. I suppose you're hosing out your leathers now eh? :)

Shit yeh see his feathering the back brake.... then riding along the very very edge of the road (basically in the gravel)......

tut tut tut trying to outbrake a gixxer....hahahahahah:rofl: :Pokey: :Pokey:

[beyond]

Hey Aff,

I reckon that 600 of yours goes quite well mate.

I also think the new 600 would be the dogs bollocks. Shaun Giles gets the new GSXR6000 k6 to around 275 on the straight at Philip Island track.

So, I reckon once you have some pennies, might be a good bike. Wouldn't mind one myself as a second bike for the short fangs eh? :)

I was actually looking at (when I can save some pennies) a k1 750....
The newer 600 would be the bizzo but a bit to expensive for me and I really love the torque out of a corner..

If I win lotto though there will be a k6 600 sitting in the garage promptly.

really good ride...
had the FXR sreaming just to keep you guys in view.
Almost crashed on the road works
Trafiic was shit
and got lost near tuakau( i didnt know the route)

Allround good day

[XTC]

Thanks Aff-man. Had alot of fun on the ride. Good on skorm for keeping it upright and not running wide on the roadworks, nice little fish tail tho :). The XT's were fine in the twisty's but lacked the top end when the road straightened out. Was good to meet you all.

Sorry mate. Don't worry. We ended up losing just about everyone around Tuakau, but it sounds like all got home okay. :)

Just a bit of a mix up on where to do the final meet before heading off.
