ATNR (Auckland Thursday night ride) - Discussion thread

[The_Dover]

I've posted on our thread to get Steve (ZRXer) to organise the southern jessies, I'm gonna be out of town.

[Squeak the Rat]

There was talk of riding through to hells pizza as a bit of a remeberance ride, there was also talk of doing this in conjunction with the south Auckland ride but Im not sure what happened to any of these ideas.

The idea got lost in the mindless dribble from the real biker.

I'm making other arrangements because I'm not capable of trolling through the crap to find out whether this is rumour or not. Cheers dipshit (you know who you are).

[slinky]

that's OK mate, i fully understand that some here would want to keep it all a secret from me

here's a curve ball

my original post was in relation to a suggestion that the southerners might entertain the idea of joining you guys and gals on your ride.

would the opposite also be an idea, we do have some great roads down here in sth auckland and environs?
if we get out of town fast enough the machete wielding lunatics won't be an issue

qkchk organises this ride, so you may need to await her response??

[Hellraiser]

As far as i was aware the idea that had been tabled was not that the too rides be combined but that the 2 rides finish at the same destination this week i.e. Hells in Kohi .......

Personally i think its a cool idea but like they have said unless the organisers (Qkchk or Dover) say otherwise the 2 rides will be as per usual and to the same destinations.

[idleidolidyll]

qkchk organises this ride, so you may need to await her response??

the sth auck organiser has asked someone else to check into it as he won't be around (something about a hairdressing appointment)

perhaps they'll manage to get something sorted in time but i wouldn't hold my breath

neither.
might have to be org'd for next weeks or something.

Dover - haircut??? Na. he gets his arse waxed... in fact he gets the trifecta - back crack and sack.

...and cheers. That's the first I knew of the cross ove with rides but it's good. Gives a better set of options if weather packs up on one of the days too

[Disco Dan]

Yet again this thread is being spamed... put your weiners away and go play with each other in PD please...


Will be there for thursday ride, trolled through all the dribble on here and could not find any changes set in stone.. so I will be at shell as per usual.

The Wed ride being set up, is once a month starting next wednesday... ...not sure how it could clash with the joint rememberance ride this week???? Or have I got my dates wrong for the rememberance ride??

[Morcs]

We should pull the ride forward to tonight, as the weather is just sooo damn good!

[Hellraiser]

We should pull the ride forward to tonight, as the weather is just sooo damn good!

Weathers going to be the same in the morrow

[Joni]

Just a friendly reminder - Keep this thread on topic please....

Its here to serve a purpose and thats the rides that take place on Thursdays... I dont see why a Mod has to keep going through and removing the crap, so the thread stays on topic.

Yellow card to the offenders.

to be honest, most of us down here in macheteland rarely venture north. Firstly it takes so long to get across town to the better roads and secondly we have the perception that 'better roads' are few and far between up there.

the idea of topsy turvy is a good un

it'd be worthwhile for us to discover new m/cycle paradises up there and for you to discover them down here. foster the love man

I'm game and it'd give some of the angry's a chance to see which face to aim for

[idleidolidyll]

wednesday AND thursday; why limit yourself

live a little

what about thursday for the memorial and tonight for a hoon?

Bingo - as you said (kinda) ... you don't know what you don't know. There are some fucken awesome roads up here, and I know squat about the ones down there. Lots of Cops on the ones up here too... dammit.

Bugger the angry's. Ride. Some are going to be better than others and that's the way it is.

lots of cops up there is another reason we rarely venture your way.

i think you guys are described as cop magnets by the southerners and looking at it, that's a geography issue as much as anything.
you seem to have less start off options and therefore the snakes are more able to find you before you get going.

down here we have half a dozen quite different direction choices within a few km's of the meet point.

albany is a long way from Manukau but i'm keen to swap and learn if you guys are. hell, we even have a learner rider who's more than happy to ride from papakura to kaiaua then hit the motorways and look for roads north west all in the same night.

if you can get a few bods together for a ride tonight, i'm keen unless the southern men manage to organise something (yes, i suggested it).
That way the usual thursday ride would be able to be more of a memorial with no regrets about getting rid of pent up adrenaline. All dedicated bikers deserve a good send off and i hope if my time comes too soon, i'll get the same.

[Disco Dan]

Cant make tonights ride then... $$$ :innocent:

Im keen for tomorow though...

[BNZ]

indeed, but as i've explained elsewhere, slow witted thin skinned sycophants living the motorcycle world vicariously through this website should grow thicker skins or larger brains.

i didn't come for an argument but I'm happy to join the fray if said argument arises.

hahahah, old lickadick here wants a job. Check out the profile -
Degree in Communication (looking for a good Public Relations job now)
Who the fuck would hire you in PR? I guess you are looking for a job because your last one was PR for Don Brash?

anywho...
Anyone planning on heading out for a ride tonight? Its seems like a long time since we have had the weather this good!

The need for my new rear shock just became a lot more urgent now that the rain has gone (touching wood)

[Pumba]

now that the rain has gone

Well you just stuffed that up (looks outside waiting for black clouds to roll over the horrizon)

mate, i don't want a 40 hr job.
i'm happy selling mountainbikes and taking photos plus having extra time riding.
BTW: have you ever met a PR worker? They're like cops, labourers, IT workers, nurses, salesmen, mechanics, retail slaves etc: they all have opinions, political persuasions and can't be classified under one umbrella except their jobs; only bigots think otherwise.

so sure, if you guys wanna southerner along and can get a ride organised, i might come along. then you can tell me all about it in person.

[BNZ]

Don't worry, touching a wooden desk.....

[klingon]

I'm intending to be on the ATNR tomorrow. After filtering through all the rubbish, it seems that we're meeting at the usual place so I'll see you there.

PS for those of you who haven't yet discovered it, there is an 'ignore' option. It's most effective if other people don't quote the ignorami who I'm trying to ignore. So please spare us all and don't quote idiots. Thanks. :)

Thanks Joni, Im starting to get a bit pissed by the tugging goin on here.

If it comes to it, I'll just get the thread closed. SIMPLE.

[Qkchk]

Well all this bullshit/crap/verbal diarrhoea/spam has made me decide that the ATNR is still going ahead as per norm.

Why the fuck would I want to join both rides together when we get this kind of shit on the thread? Bad enough reading about it here let alone having to put up with this crap in person.

Fucken timewasters.

[Macktheknife]

Not going to be there this week as I will be in Wgtn for LB's funeral. Enjoy and see you all next week.

[paturoa]

Will be joining the SATNR crew for ride to Kohi - ride safe

Please don't tar us all with the same brush, after todays events some of us just want to get out there and ride in the memory of a couple of great guys.

cheers

The route will be discussed on the night. For those concerned about distance/time the ride will last for approx 1hr - 1'nhalf and is around 70-80kms long. We start at Westgate and finish up at Albany. The route does change often, so plenty of variety! :yeah:

Anyone who is caught endangering others by their actions will be asked to leave the ride and may be refused entry to forthcoming rides! (As we have had seen in the past) :nono:I will not be responsible for people ending up at Wellsford due to not listening to instructions nor the pointer system failing..........

[FROSTY]

Folks lets keep discussions on this thread ABOUT the ride.

[Qkchk]

Ok folks, due to some dickheads on here this thread is getting closed down. New ATNR is in the sticky column in the usual place.

[Qkchk]

Hi All,

After a bit of a dicussion with a mod, this thread has been created. It has been made for anything ATNR related - practically to keep the other thread cleaner........ :p

[Qkkid]

If you have not realised by now this is a riding thread okay:yes:

Your the ones doing the toy throwing like always, and i'm going to ram my opinions down your throat every chance i get. It was only one person that spamed your thread but yet all Sth Akl rider are on the recieving end of your attitude. Its time for you to come back down to earth and stop thinking your better than everyone else.

[idleidolidyll]

iddiebiddipiddle was last seen on the South Auckland Thursday thread. He's the ONLY real motorcyclist on KB.... according to him.

is it in your personal nature to be a witless wonder Mr Haggissack or is it just a scotty thing?
save the crap for the next time you see me, i'll be happy to have that conversation.

[GMGirl]

Hope you all had an awesome ride tonight. I stopped at the Shell on the way home to find out which roads you guys were riding so I could meet up with yas somewhere so I could race home to Kumeu and get the SV. But yeah bugger I got home to find my horse lame :bye: so yeah had to suss him out... thankfully nothing major, and by the time I had done all that I could hear you guys near where I live (sounded like there was a fair few of you) but I couldn't work out what roads you were on... sounded like you were either on Old North Road near Riverhead forest or up on SH 16 past Huapai, hard to tell as noise rebounds off hills. Anyway guys I hope to be there next week for sure :scooter: Let's hope the weather pulls out another good one for it. Cheers.

[dawnrazor]

well i binned it :P

[Buddy L]

[Toaster]

[Theatre]

Damn, bad luck Dan. Hope the bike and your thumb aren't too bad. Had no idea anything happened. Was stoked about how long it was taking everyone to come past, thought my riding had improved :p No such luck however.

Cheers to the Qks for yet another great ride.

thanks to those of you who helped pull me outta the grassy nol !!

hmmm i think my thumb has defrosted this steak.... dinner!!!! yum !

Shit Dan, never realised it was you that binned. Please tell me it wasnt on that right hander on Redhills that i went off the other week...

Hope all is OK.

[ManDownUnder]

Shit Dan, never realised it was you that binned. Please tell me it wasnt on that right hander on Redhills that i went off the other week...

Hope all is OK.

Quite possibly - I went back and saw a fucken huge hole punched through the fence... but the bike parked on the road side of it, intact, still looking at the fence...

EH?

A previous incident had taken out the fence, DD just redecorated the lawn in front of it. Nothing too serious though - rear brake disconnected was it?

[Disco Dan]

Shit Dan, never realised it was you that binned. Please tell me it wasnt on that right hander on Redhills that i went off the other week...

Hope all is OK.

Same corner :innocent:

I was so worried i was going to smack straight into that brand new wire fence!! hehe
yeah... snapped the bracket the holds rear brake slave to peg...

[Morcs]

Same corner

Its a nasty corner, as it comes over a hill then sweeps right, then tightens up even further. The other week i braked for the first part of the turn, but when i tightened up, went 'screw this' and went across the grass :)

Even going slower on that corner last night it still nearly caught me out.

Maybe over the weekend we should go out and perfect that stretch of road eh?

[Chaosmage]

yeh I must admit I went and did that stretch on Satuday just been and that corner was one I watched afer underestimating it the first time.

[ArcherWC]

Shit Dan, never realised it was you that binned. Please tell me it wasnt on that right hander on Redhills that i went off the other week...

Hope all is OK.


Yea it was that one, but your recovery was much much better

[ArcherWC]

Oh, and thanks for another great night everyone, allways good to have a yarn over a beer, cheers

[westerlybreeze]

Good ride folks :yes:

Cheers Kids

Good to meet cha Simon, Richard, Phil and to catchup with Sean again

[skidMark]

Hey - was that you on the Red Hyosinger?

edit - snails pace is fine (fine fine fine). Knowing your limits, whatever they may be, always gets my respect. Push them by all means, just don't exceed them.

[Buddy L]

:scooter: Thank you everyone for a great first ride - sorry if I was going snail's pace - Love to do some more rides, great motivation to do some more practice and push myself a little more.

Snail pace, i followed you through Write road and you were going a good speed, some of the corners you have better lines and better exit speed then me. with more time in the saddle you will be motoring along no worries :rockon:

This Thursday 21st December will be the last ATNR for the year. The ATNR will start up again on the 11th Jan 07. For those unable to attend this last ride, have a safe Xmas and New Year - See you in 2007!

What: Last ride for 2006 followed by a Drink at the Speights Ale House :apint:
When: Thurs 21st Dec :hug:
Where: The normal spot - Shell Westgate :yes:
Time: The usual time - 6.30pm, kick tyres then depart 7pm :chase:
Why: It's the last ride for the year! :yeah:
How: On two wheels silly! :ride:


The deal:

Since this is the last ride of the year, we will be riding all the roads that have been used in the ATNR. You can expect us at the pub 9.00ish instead of the usual 8.30pm. All I can say of the roads we will be riding, there will be a figure-of-eight track after the Dairy Flat Road re-group. However a full breifing will occur before we leave Westgate No mention of the roads we ride on here please!


:wari::Punk: Let's make it a good one! :Punk: :wari:

Keep checking here for updates on weather.....

[Buddy L]

A longer ride O-lala:woohoo: ,
hope well all stay together this time and bikes start like they should:innocent: :whistle:

[slinky]

is the weather going to turn for thursday night?

[Pumba]

Would be anyones guess at this stage looking at the maps

[Keystone19]

My assessment from that map would be that it will be clearing to fine.

Have a great ride guys. Won't be there again this week. It's been a bit hectic these last few weeks but I promise to be back in the new year to impart my superior wisdom on all things to do with cheese wedges consumption.

Have a fantastic Christmas everyone and a sunny New Year...:sunny:

[Jonny Rotten]

i wont be there this week as its my staff xmas party......but as i have hurt my shoulder i might not be able to go to the staff xmas party......so that means i could be there...... if not ill be there on the 11th of jan hopefully with a new weapon :love: have a good christmas you bastards.... and i hope to see some of you dropping in to see me for a beer in the far norf....:rockon:

[Qkchk]

Im pretty sure the weather will be A.O.K. for Thursday. Supposed to bucket down tonite (something like 30-50mm in one hour), with it easing over Weds then becoming fine for Thurs and Fri :wari::sunny:

Hope all is good - I have a special passenger coming on Thu... the one, the only... blondini!

Y'all give her the normal welcome now... or maybe the one with your clothes on - Yeah, I think that's probably the safer option.

See yas there and then!

Auckland to Taumarunui, the central North Island plateau and Bay of Plenty
Some heavy showers and thunderstorms with hail clearing tonight. Long fine spells tomorrow but showers returning for a time.

Yeah, doesn't look too hot at the moment but lets hope that changes, I was really looking forward to the ride tonight!!! :mellow:

Holy shit :shit: Will be good to catch up Neil!!!!

[Qkchk]

OK Folks,

At this stage (unless there is heavy rain) the ride will be going ahead as planned................

I cannot promise that it wont rain, however the forecast is in our favour at this stage it should be clearing up and with this brisk SW coming through it may pass over faster than expected.........(so to explain, most of the crap weather should of passed already..)

Just a couple of things to note tonight:

1. Medium - High Winds
Its blowing strongly over on the North Shore and remember a good portion of the ride is over here. Also take into consideration that we do ride amongst the valleys, so expect downdrafts/higher winds than in the city :weird:

2. Holiday Traffic
Some of the roads we will take tonight are known to other road users - Cages included. A couple of roads are known as short-cuts to the North so the roads may be heavier than previous nights.

3. Longer Ride Tonight
Please make sure you fill your bike up at Westgate or where ever, expect to do around 90-120kms tonight. If you dont wish to ride that far we will have two groups split off at Dairy Flat as per a normal night.

[WickedOne]

See ya'll there!!! :Punk:

[slinky]

See ya'll there!!! :Punk:

wat he said

[Pumba]

o well the weather is not great but Ill be at westgate

[McJim]

Thanks for allowing the Scottish nana on a 250 along for the evening - nice ride - shame about the weather. Since I got seriously pissed on from the heavens on the way home too I am presuming it (the rain) followed me home and you fellas got lovely dry weather for the rest of the evening?

see y'all next time I get the chance to cross the bridge.

[RM125king]

thanks very much for the great ride.

[loneranger]

cheers for the ride tonight, had a blast rain and all, big thanks to qckchk & qckkid for all the effort over th past few months :niceone: , merry xmas to you all and look foward to the rides next year.:scooter:

[crashe]

:Oi: sorry crashie, next time i'll wait for the group...

Yep a great ride..... enjoyed myself tonight, even thou it rained in patches.


Some git flashed their lights in a white van..... so I warned all the riders that were coming up from behind me.... damn it there was no one there awaiting for us.
(for those not knowing: when you get the hand doing a huge circle in the air it means cop ahead)

Did pass one copper going the other way early on in the ride thou.
(It was a proper cop car)

[loneranger]

those of you not doing anything on boxing day check out the coro ride, will be fun for sure

[WickedOne]

Great ride last night (besides the rain). Hope you all have a great Christmas and all the best for the New Year. Keep safe and keep it rubber side down. :scooter:

[ManDownUnder]

I kinda made it last night - went past in a green forrester with the family (and extended family) in tow. Out to dinner at the flash chinese all you can eat place at Westgate.

I was thinking about you guys - (and laughing quietly every time it rained LOL)

Have fun y'all... and I'll see some of you at Wangavegas on the 26th, failing that - I'm back in Orklund 2 or 3 Jan

[classic zed]

Damned customers want their cars back before Christmas:gob:

And no I wasnt afraid to get the shiny bits filthy, I did in fact ride home in the pouring rain:2thumbsup

Happy Christmas to all and I will see some of you at the Busa's party :yes:

[Buddy L]

Well i had fun mainly on the secound part of the ride when it was all nice and dry.:scooter:
And then after the pub trying to keep the bike in a straight line :shutup:
wheel spin every time the gas goes on (with a bit of clutch as well):gob: had the wheel spinning at 120kays:innocent: i have now fulling in :love: again with the beast!!!
Thanks for the ride as per usual and ill see you all in the new year if not before.:Punk:

Hi Guys

I'm planning on doing an unofficial run along this little bit of road tomorrow night.

Anyone wishing to join my cousin and I are more than welcome. New riders welcome we will both have pillions so the ride will be sedate.

If we have extra riders I will ensure the pointer system will be used.

Leaving normal time 7:00pm from Shell Westgate

By the way we are only intending to do the ride but if anybody wishes they are welcome to join us at home (Attwood Rd off Paremoremo Rd, Albany)for a BBQ afterward. BYO everything.

Please use the calandar entry to indicate if you will be joining us for the ride no rsvp necessary for the BBQ

Cheers

[RM125king]

[NinjaNanna]

Hey people, didn't come to the meet last night (due to lack of funds for proper road tyres) but I'm pretty sure I saw some of you at the Four Square in Riverhead?I was coming out of the street just next to the dairy on my KLX250 :scooter: and gave a few of you a wave.
Was that you lot?

I was working late, eventually driving home (in my car) along Kahikatea Flat Road to see pass the other direction some 40+ bikes.... man was I jealous! looked like a great night for a ride. Good on you all :) One day i will get home early enough to join in. Looked awesome too. Toaster.

I am informed it was 51...! Good turnout indeed but we needed another 3 to beat the record.

[Chaosmage]

Yep great ride and people as usual. Oh and at work today Terry says to me “were you out riding last night”
of course
“ah I think you all came screaming past my house”
hmmm that could have been us yer, what Rd?

The road that we do the quick right turn on, after going over that brow of a hill until we get back to Peak Rd.... sorry if I held anyone up on that particular road...... Its not a section of that part of the ride that I like.... too many parts to the road that have been left all patchy... Mind you once I have done it a few more times I may change my mind about it. :whistle:

A great night at the pub.......

I thought as Skidmark came back from where ever he had shot off to for those few minutes...... that he was being chased by the cops........ as he came flying back, all we heard was sirens flying past......... but alas they weren't after him....... :whistle:

He even managed to have bolts falling off his borrowed bike and the rubber off the righthand side footpeg. Hope you didnt leave it at the pub......SM, I was considering selling it back to you..... :rofl:

"I would rather smear my testicals in fish paste, and dangle them in a tank of hungry pirahanas"

more ATNR piccies for your viewing pleasure thanks to the KitKatHawk!

[Kittyhawk]

Thanks to Mandownunder for letting me ride on his bitch pad!

Was my first time and loved it!! It's such a different feeling being at the back and not being in control of the bike. Could actually look around and enjoy the scenery as well as see how another rider takes lines. Was such an eye opener for me. I learnt alot.

As for the pics, was my first attempt for that as well, with a bit more practise the pics will improve....aww Im such a virgin at everything!!:innocent:

So if I get to ride the bitch pad next week (fingers crossed), I'll try taking some action shots of riders riding if it pans out that way.!!

[Disco Dan]

Hey Bro, you gonna put up the vid from last night's ride?

Just the first 5 mins, rest is boring as i was going slow to concentrate on my cornering that night (these vids help me learn my corners better).

Very keen to turn up for a blat this week. Been busting to join in for ages, just haven't had the spare time. Where is 'Shell Westgate' - since I don't know Auckland that well (actually some would say I don't know shit about anything....)
