Ashhurst night ride 9/6/6 to wellington

[cowboyz]

We are off about 5pm from palmytown off to wellington and back. Plan to go through shannon and then over haywoods. Anyone keen?

[ldnz]

Yeah im up for it. It'll be a chilly one!

[MattRSK]

What sort of speed are we looking at here. I really would be keen.

[cowboyz]

I am on 80 points so whatever speed you set as long as the cop pulls you up first.


Honestly.. we dont go much over 130 and will be sitting on 110 on the main roads.

[cowboyz]

meet outside Jaspers bar on fairs road if your keen at 4.30. I going to bed now and then working all day tomorrow. will check thread in morning but after that Im gone.

[MattRSK]

Oh yeah sounds good. You may have the points but I have the negative cash balance which keeps me in check. So do we have a meeting point for this night ride.

[MattRSK]

Sorry cowboyz I wont be able to make this one due to work commitments :bye: . Will have to come along on another ride soon.

[cowboyz]

Fantastic night ride. Would be well up there with one of the best I would say. 3 of us went down and my gps read 299km in 3:44:18. Total time was 5:16:50. We had to wait a while while Meanie and recovered from the oogling at the young blondes running round lower hutt. The weather was perfect and the ride of the pikcock (sp?) hill was great. Have to get over there in the daylight one day. All you Wellington guys rave about the rimitakas but why not rave about this piece of road? I loved it.

[ldnz]

Yeah it was really nice. Top speed was achieved when cowboyz had to make a dash for shannon or risk ruining his leathers...

The hill was brilliant, got a nearly clear run through both ways.

Anyways thanks for having me along gentlemen, we'll have to do it again sometime.

[cowboyz]

yeah, that damn warehouse bladder wasnt doing me any favours.

[Mouse]

Sorry i missed the ride guys :bye: but meanie didn't let me no till the day before and i Had other commitments :apint: . should be able to make next ride (i hope):scooter:

[ldnz]

Hows the Ninja getting on? I hear the problem with the fuel injection turned out to be no drama.

[Mouse]

Ya no prob , just blown fuse in cooling system apart from that had no other worries . looking forward to next ride though . i will have to look at KB more often

[cowboyz]
