Fantastic ride on a :sunny: :sunny: day.... Warkworth return is just on 200km. Leaving Warkworth at 10am through to Paparoa/Waipu/Mangawhai/Puhoi for a drink and perv at other bikes and basically just talk a bit of shit. I know some out there are really good at that :blip: Theres a posting in 'events' on the 19th (this saturday) so if you can make it to Warkworth by 10am do it.

Gunna give this one a miss, as much as I would like to go for the ride. Will make sure I come up on the next one.

See, thing is, I need to be in paps by 5 in order to be sure i have a vb in hand to watch the wallabies kick the blacks.

Enjoy the ride guys!

Thanks to the Maha's for taking the initiative to organise this ride today. Even though it was overcast all day and a bit nippy at times the roads were in great condition and best of all DRY!! :yes:

10 bikes in all turned up at Paparoa, with 3 big Busa's taking out the majority category. Twas good to catch up with familiar faces and everyone rode their own ride and behaved themselves, well, most of the time! :innocent:

Poor ole M1CRON's Busa sprung an oil leak on the way back to Mangawhai so 6 of us were delayed in getting to our lunch stop. Miraculously the leak stopped after tootoing around with the bike for 20mins! :sherlock: (see pic)

Highlight of the ride for me was doing that fantastic Paparoa-Oakleigh road twice, twisty heaven that, and I even paid homage to 'Onesti Corner' (Tomthephoms crash site) as I sliced through it at 45 degrees! :Punk:

I trust you all got back home safe and sound, sory I couldn't join you at Puhoi but I wanted to get home. See ya's on the next one.

Ever considered taking up photography as a job ??.....:yes:
Thought to myself (as you tooted bye bye) at the Puhoi turn off ''he cant be rushing home for a feed''......not after what you put away at Mangawhai...:corn:
Seemed like every plate of food that came out..''yeah thats mine''...top effort
