Nothing wrong in travelling in a cage either.....:yes:
There's a private track day at Puke on the 11th of July, I just missed out on a place, would have been nice to see what the old cage could do. I think I'll take the day off anyway and go spectate.

Awesome ride, thanks for turning up guys :sunny:
Dveus - which side is left and which side is right???:nya: Nice bike by the way:yes:
Erik - Thanks for the new roads we must do them again. :first:
GrandpaDave - Good to meet you say hi to your grandkids for me.:zzzz:
Had a lovely day, and managed a good pace throughout the ride. Didn't really have any uncontrollable scares, just the usual stuff.:shutup:
After we finished the ride Erik and I went for a quick "don't try this at home" :nono: blat over Cheenic Dwive :love:, naughty road has too much moss and lots of gravel in the middle lane, pretty scary as you slide into the path of oncoming cars if you don't have a perfect line through left handers. :whocares:
Anyone up for a short fastish ride tomorrow??

Yep, it was a good ride.
Sorry I didn't remember the blind crests with corners straight after on Rotongaro Rangiriri road, otherwise I would've mentioned them. Nice road though, eh. :)
