At this stage was thinking about meeting at the autobahn at 930 possibly for a 1000 departure. Not sure of the route yet though. Possibly through the hunuas?

Awww, im sorry to hear that Goblin mate :(
Would have been good to have you along....

Blackbird2, lol, its all good :nya:

chickenfunkstar & Zapf, great to meet / ride with you guys. Real motorcyclists - eternally optimistic. Awesome attitude :niceone: look forward to next time.

Trumpy you did well mate, was a big ride considering you havent had much wet riding :blip:

Cheers :D

No worries kf, was prolly for the best as I saved a few $$ and had a great day with my tiny :D He's such a comical wee fulla.:laugh:

Glad you guys had a good day despite the weather. :niceone:

[trumpy]

Trumpy you did well mate, was a big ride considering you havent had much wet riding :blip:

You are not wrong about that! First real wet weather ride in nearly 30 years!

Still, the upside of doing nearly 500ks in the rain in one day is that it steepens the learning curve somewhat...so no longer terrified of the rain..repectful, but not terrified. Thanks for that..have missed out too many rides because of the possibility of rain.

Good to meet you Zapf and Chickenfunkster and thanks Zapf for your advice.

615ks all up, great ride, thanks Kiwifruit.

[Zapf]

happy to meet you all :) Was good to meet some of you finally.

I completely enjoyed the ride and the rain. it reminded you of the basics and it feels just like a newbie again :)

Was amazed how difference my new shock made, so its all good.

Will be great to see u all again sometime.

[Goblin]

How cool that you have, so far, all enjoyed the day despite the rain!:rockon:
Imho, some of my best rides have been in the rain. I get this huge sense of achievement when I get home from a long ride in the rain. When you've beaten slippery roads, cagers out to get you, 10% visibility, freezing fog on the Mamaku's.....it makes you feel GOOOD to be alive! :doobey:
