Ride Day Vids....... & hello from across the Tasman!

[Madguitarist!]

Hi all,

It's been quite awhile since I last posted and much has happened since!
For one thing, I've moved to Melbourne as some of you would already know.
The other thing is I've vidcam some of my rides with some of you, including a particular Red Knights Rally 2005 which Crashe has been threatening my life over not giving her a copy sooner! :innocent:

Anyways, hope all is well with all things kiwibiker and everyone is staying upright!
I'll update this thread as I upload more edited vids, you might see yourself there!

Here's the links to some of the vids I've uploaded to video.google.com

Prices are not too bad, not a whole lot cheaper but a good variety available.
However, Cycletreads always seems to be able to give a good deal whenever I walked in. Got a Dririder drimesh cheaper there than I could here in melb, funny since it's an aussie brand! :gob:

[Madguitarist!]

[Madguitarist!]

Hey come one, that's not fair!.... we it kinda is actually..... there are corners but they're like hundred miles away! :bye:

The great ocean road is 300km west of melbourne city!

Sorry this took so long mate, but one word for ya:

BROADBAND

[Madguitarist!]

True that bro!
But I don't get to 'hang out' with much 'skips' at the mo since I work with asian aussies and most of my network is also asian aussie or wogs.

They do have this funny accent that's really strange?!?! feeeesh and cheeeeps?

[crashe]

Sorry this took so long mate, but one word for ya:

BROADBAND

Seriously I gave up after 30 minutes trying to download the red Knights ride...
which is why I need a kind soul to put them all onto DVD for me.

[Zed]

[DMNTD]

Would appreciate that mate...awesome.
Have been wanting to create evidence on how these hoons are riding about these parts....shocking,just shocking :innocent:

[Zed]

Mate, I thot you went back to a 6hundy after the blackbird.... Oops! :oAhh i see. The thought crossed my mind, but after being on an 1100 dropping 500cc's would have been too much to bear!

[outlawtorn]

Good stuff. Have they dropped the speed limit on the GOR yet? And was it well policed while you were on it?

[Madguitarist!]

Speed limits are still in place and it's pretty well policed!

One of the guys on the ride, brand spanking 2 week old gixer thou got plodded doing 160 in a 100 zone and was given walking orders! Will last for 1 yr I believe.

Real bummer.... heaps of policing and cameras and stuff! :angry:
