[cowpoos]

[Sparky Bills]

Good stuff dude!
So now you gotta go out and get some leathers with knee sliders AND some pants that wont leak:nono:

I remember my first time:innocent:

[ducatilover]

its a good feeling

[Sketchy_Racer]

na not on the road for me buddy......

On the track..... every corner....

Im coming to featherston next weekend, i should come see these roads you speak of

[N4CR]

Hehehe, I learnt the 'don't kneedown with cordura' lesson a little while ago in a carpark. Nice one man just do what I did go buy some sliders and hot glue them on to your cordura, works well man. (And you don't end up forking out for dainese leathers worth more than your bike or something).

The kevlar lining is very easy to wear through... bit scary, don't wanna bin too fast in that shitty cordura eh? Got me a one piece now though. Every time I crashed I got a new hole in the crap... jeebus.

[Badcat]

oh how out lil speed demon is growing up eh....lol....most of the aucklanders can't get htere knee down...so good shit bro!!

Have you seen "most of the aucklanders" actually ride, Cowpoos?
you wouldn't want to sound like a dick, would you?

[Coyote]

I haven't got my knee down yet. I've been leaning over far enough but never had any knee sliders. Hopefully I can get/make some for the next race at Manfeild :2thumbsup

[ducatilover]

my pants leak

[Sketchy_Racer]

Is that right?

[cowpoos]

my pants leak
well don't pee in them!

[cowpoos]

Have you seen "most of the aucklanders" actually ride, Cowpoos?

piffft.....name calling ain't gunna make ya faster lad....go do some riding!

Well, the reason most Aucklanders don't get their knee down is cos the weather up here is warmer. :)

This means oppossums propogate much more frequently, which means there is more of them chomping through our native bush. This means they cross the road more frequently to get to new patches of bush. This means that they killed more frequently, which means that if we try and get our knee down, we hook so many oppossums on our knee sliders that we overload the knee down side of the bike and get more than just the knee down. Plus it doesn't smell to good and we get blood and guts on our leathers, which means blow flies follow us home and breed more cos of the warmer weather and ....


But, wait!! There's more. In the warmer weather, the tar melts more and this means our sliders get stuck in icky sticky and we get pulled off our bikes and that hurts too much. :(

But wait!! There's more. A free set of Ginsu steak knifes with every succesful knee slide. :)

But wait! There's more. Cos more people use the roads up here, they get badly pitted and potholes breed more rampantly and the trucks cause big subsidence patches in the road. Most the time we are lucky enough not to disappear from sight in the larger subsidences, but the potholes seem to occur right in your cornering line and they have a nasty habit of swallowing knee caps, which means we nearly lose our leg or if our leg muscles are really strong, we actually end up backwards on our seats after a succesful knee down corner.

Only really tough bikers survive in Auckland. Many of them are noticeable when riding cos you can see their gloved hands hanging on for grim death on the edge of those larger subsidences caused by trucks. It's real hard pulling yourself out of those. If you are really lucky and it hasn't rained, you can see a trail of blood leading from a pothole into the shrubbery somewhere, cos some poor bugger didn't get turned around in his seat. You will find a kneeslider in the pothole with a kneecap still attached. This is not a pretty sight and best left until well after meal times.

Yeah, I thought about it when I was five but I think I spin a more positive and intelligent form of BS than the current crew of parasites we have running the country. :)

Actually, you are prolly right. Most 5 y/o make more sense than that lot.

All he needs now is helmet scrapers :blip:

Funny you say that, i was thinking the other day as i hit a pothole that i might need to refill before coming out the other side. I actually, literally round into and out of it! Quite a reasonable dent in the road.

My favourite corner, some of you will know this one, is as you are coming up the last overtaking lane from whitford just before you hit the roundabout at the top. It is the double laned baby, and so long as you watch the potholes on the left, you can get the bike really low as you turn through the right hander.
Tried to get my knee down there once, just ended up with the rear end drifting:gob: ...that and i was also wearing cordura...so probably wouldn't have been a god thing to achieve in any case!

Time to use some of that 70c petrol tax on road repairs me thinks...or they could perhaps buy me a dirt bike to ride aucklands roads...

[ducatilover]

hmmm i think you auckland riders have no balls.... kinda like me


i dont wet my riding gear! it was apple juice:wait:

Yeah, the reason for that is, they get ripped off when you get spun around in the seat doing a succesful knee slide. :blah:

i knew this would start, been looking forward to it too!

the learn was

the bottom of the taka hill when you tried to snake my line, i thought, yeah right mother fucker, an let you make the decision of whether you wanted to eat oncoming traffic or back off, wasnt backing down to a ginga on a gixer!

then going up the hill that ive only been up 30 times...... looking back in the mirrors watching the gap i was making grow, even with your loosish overtaking (i cant really speak, im worse)

even on piecock hill you didnt overtake anyone, infact a kid who has been over that hill as many times as you had was in front of you, RG100 i think, infront of you on the kr150!


Mate - you should have come up the Taka's.

I looked back on Piecock at one stage expecting to see Sensei, and here is this green bumble bee humming along behind me. (Disclaimer - wasn't going full on at the time but this "kid" can ride through the corners.)

Big ups dude.

HAHA TAKE THAT

shhhh, I thought that one was only liked by a select few... now more seem to know about it :angry:

And don't be in the left lane, the fast is flat and smooth. Even tightens just a little near the end of the corner... oooh, you can tell I likes it :yes:

For extra thrill points, try cutting between cagers that refuse to move to the slow ass lane once they have overtaken... :chase:

No worries Badcat, I'm gonna learn 'Poos next month at Taupo, then we may be able to save the poor lad from himself.

Yeah I was skool'd in the Coromandel ranges :doobey: ...not so many traffic lights to slow your groove down there.

I'll keep dreaming 'Poos...me on the back wheel out of the hairpin (while doing the Sudoku puzzle) around your flailing ass...oh yes :yes:

Fark...thinking about the track's getting me all hot n bothered...better go for a ride.

I just love the Coromandels. Reckon they gotta have some of the best roads in the whole country. Plenty of opportunity on those roads to collect some possums in ya sliders. :)

[N4CR]

Yikes, and how many times is that??

Uhhhhh I don't know how many times I kneedowned in it but mabey 5x each knee, small hole the first time and now it's a decent 4-5cm gash. Then I stacked it twice on the same side being silly buggers leaning too much and got some mean holes :D hehehe... learn the hard way I guess.
