Condition of the Taka's (Wgtn)

[Str8 Jacket]

Im thinking about tootling over the Taka's after work today.... what do you guy's reckon the road will be like? Im thinking of leaving town about 3.45 and heading straight up. Will the roads be icy or even worse snowy or should it be OK round that time? I hear the weekends weather is going to be bad so I need my fix, its been too long....

[Str8 Jacket]

Scrap that idea, im gonna go over Piecock instead... Need to get back to cook a roast :)
Im leaving town between 3.30-4 anyone else is welcome to join me, but it will not be a fast paced ride!

[MattRSK]

Sorry not to sure. Gutted about the weekend weather outlook. Was planning on coming down your way to watch the bucket racing. Oh well need practise at riding in the wet so I can race at the next VMCC meeting. Let us know how it was today, thanks. :rockon: Wish I could just pop over the takas everyday lol.

Just to rub it in ive decided to go over Piecock instead - wont take so long. Oh the choices we are so lucky in Wgtn, not to mention the glorious day we are having! :)

[MattRSK]

Hah thanks for putting salt into the wound :bye: . Haha its all good who needs the sun. Well enjoy your ride. Might see ya round in the weekend. :rockon:

[Colapop]

Mmmmm roast - yummy. I'm sure I could be tempted to pop over after work...

[MattRSK]

[Colapop]

[madboy]

Radio reports this morning of black ice on Gray's Rd and Paekak. Will certainly have melted by this arvo, but the shaded areas will be damp, cold and slippery regardless.

Joys of starting work at 7am.... But I'll have fun, just been over the Aro hill to Karori and back and the roads are still damp! But they were empty so I had a fun wee blast now im just itching to get out for a decent ride!

How til ya get the big beasty Hels?

Im going to try my best to decipher that and assume that you mean how long till I get a bigger bike?...I can either have my full licence in Sept or wait until November. Then all I have to do is either win lotto and buy a bigger bike or sell the KR :( and then do it. Realistically im probably looking at Feb March next year...

Dunno what the road is like, but I have a fantasic view out my window across the harbour and the Taka's. Lots of snow.

[XP@]

missed ya.

The sun was bloody bright round some corners, leaving a lot to blind faith.
Anyway my headache really eventuated :( but the nice bloke driving the red jag gave me a pack od panadol!

[Bend-it]

Will be picking up my bike from Motorad this arvo, and who knows... if it all feels good, I might end up taking the long way home... ;) Still sorting things out with the company the van belongs to, Pilkington glass, but the good thing is that repairs only cost $115! Apparently just superficial damage. Whew!

[Clivoris]

I'm just feeling sick. Flu for a week. Sitting in bed looking at a gorgeous day ripe for a classic mid-winter quick blat and I'm too sick to do it. If your able to get out there I'm very envious.
