[caseye]

Hey MOM!(DidJit) Yep all things being equal I'll be there for the ride.Ah, Nope actually thas the anniversary of my twins EIGHTEENTH birthday.Damn a man cant do what a man wants to do these days.
Have fun ion that one too guys I'll get there,Starting to sound like Old Guy! Already look like him.LOL.

[Thani-B]

If it wasn't raining I'd be in..

Will see what it's like closer to the time.

[DidJit]

I can see why you lot don't do this at the moment. If it's not raining, there's mist; if the roads aren't wet, there are roadworks; if the oncoming cars aren't forgetting to dip their lights, they're hugging the centreline a lil' too close for my liking... Ah well, at least there was a nice, big moon out there lighting the way. :scooter:

Yeah about the stolen R1, I thought bloody hell Dins got two jobs. But the "skinny" bit sorta ruled you out mate. If it had said 'white guy built like a 'megatron' then our Mate Din might have had some explaining to do.
Cant wait to see them new bikes, I was busy with my bike in bits. Got me new clocks today.

[PirateJafa]

Since it didn't sound like anyone was going tonight, I took the opportunity for a daylight run through the Hunuas. Pretty good condition on the whole, only a few patches of roadworks, but the new bike didn't even notice the difference.

Need to work on the fuel range though, grrr.

[Hinny]

Usually like to be there at about 60 615 pm for a 7pm ride off.
Normally ride for a good hour or so, never really measured how far. Most often end up at a hostilery soemwhere to wheet the whistle and then all head home fromthere.
Weather and family dependant I might even make it out this week, have to talk nice to the wife to see if i can borrow her new(Old) bike.
Will try, have missed the road on 2 wheels something chronic.

I'd like to know how come we get to ride all the way from the Bee Pee @Papakura ?? the poor bike won't even get warm before we start on the sausages & speeches :eek5:

I knew I could trust you to enter into the spirit of the thing.Truth is mate, we'll leave the Bee Pee and go down to the Drury on off ramp and head back Norf to the Takanini off ramp, from whence we shall slowly commute down The great South Road all the way through Takannini, through the papakura, and on to Drury at a sedate pace with hopefully lotsa! scooters etc in tow, those who can't ride on the motorway see.
Also gives the locals a chance to see a couple of hundred or more bikes in one place at once.

As you canceled your last planned ride due to the weather(even though it turned out fine:eek5:), whats the chances that this one will also be canned for the same reason ??? The weather forcast isn't exactly brilliant for this weekend;)
Ride is still on if people turn up

[Kornholio]

Ride is still on if people turn up

I'm in cuz!!

[jafar]

I knew I could trust you to enter into the spirit of the thing.Truth is mate, we'll leave the Bee Pee and go down to the Drury on off ramp and head back Norf to the Takanini off ramp, from whence we shall slowly commute down The great South Road all the way through Takannini, through the papakura, and on to Drury at a sedate pace with hopefully lotsa! scooters etc in tow, those who can't ride on the motorway see.
Also gives the locals a chance to see a couple of hundred or more bikes in one place at once.

Now there's an idea, get everyone to meet @ papakura bp then when the scooters arrive head off up the motorway where they can't go. :scooter:
Might it be a better idea to meet @ the Bee Pee Takanini then the scooter contingent (if any) can ride down the Great south road with us.:blink:

[Thani-B]

Turkey!!! =D

[DidJit]

We bikers (and most other motorists) are known to complain about turkeys on the road sometimes, however, we don't usually mean it literally! :crazy:

Still, let's take in the positives tonight: we rode some fantastic little roads again in good compamy, enjoyed a few yarns at the pub in good company and... the SATNR RIDES AGAIN! :woohoo: :wings: :2thumbsup

(Yes, DidJit's a happy lil' chappy...) :D

[Theflash]

I was wondering what the hell that was. Nice ride. That Shinko rear tyre of mine was a little slippery on the way back (wet roads). Had to switch to reserve at AK side of bombays and thought (I can make it home: Mt Roskill) started spluttering at mangere bridge, nursed it to the mobil in Onehunga, just coasted in. :shutup:

Caseye: no bagging the 400's.

I remember the Shinkoes on the Hyo requiring a little more attention in the wet. Dry cowshit on the roads appears to get rather slippery with a bit of drizzle as well — Suzi's back wheel got very slippy crossing that bridge on Mangatangi Road. And hey, now you know your tank range!


... Turkey?
Eye don't get it.

Leading the pack in the dark on the way home, came up over a rise to immediately discover a turkey in the middle of the lane facing us, head cocked, one eye staring at Suzi's headlight on full beam.

:blink:

Adjusted my line and passed it (closely) on the left. The thing must've shit itself with 3 big, bright, noisy lights whizzing past it like that.

:chase: :gob: :sick:

Gotta say, turkeys look pretty freaky at night.
But hey, all in all, it was a good ride. :niceone:

[caseye]

LOL and i can just imasgine the looks on the vfaces of the following riders too! you OK Thani-B? That bloody didjit, leading you into strange and uncharted waters, again!
Have put a turkey through the gap, between the front wheel and the back, didn't hurt it a bit, Me on the other hand, well i needed several stiff drinks after that ride.
Nearly got me a sheep once ,l not so long ago, back country roads are nice but full of hidden dangers.Eyes open and watch those brows Didgy.
I know you'll take that last one the way it was mean't mate.
Looking forward to riding with you lot again soon, wheels back with new bearings in, tyres and wheels in boot of cage to go for final fitting tomorrow, closer again.

[Thani-B]

It looked like it was close enough for him to kick (I thought he had :pinch: ).
Was a good ride.

[DidJit]

Hurry up! :lol: Looking forward to it as well.

From my point of view, that bird looked too big and solid to lay a boot into. To be honest, I was quite relieved that it froze in place and let us pass unhindered.

[oldguy]

Im out for tomorrow, saving my money for the weekend, Sunday to be exact, doing the Mr Motorcycles Trail ride, out at Glen Murray.

.Have a safe one, hopefully see you lot next week.

[idleidolidyll]

Great ride, I enjoyed it bigtime (scratching head looking at back tyre). I discovered I had got a little out of practice over winter.
Nice to see a lass on the ride too, eh!

[Thani-B]

Sounds like I missed a good one :( well Amber was serviced yesterday, so assuming its going to be sunny, should be there next week :)

and i HAVE to be home by 9.30PM...:facepalm:

[DidJit]

Normally, we meet up at the BP Drury Autobahn Café (http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Autobahn+Cafe+Papakura,+Papakura,+Auckland&sll=-37.092739,174.942191&sspn=0.012666,0.027874&ie=UTF8&hq=Autobahn+Cafe&hnear=Papakura,+Auckland&z=14&iwloc=A) about 6:00pm with a departure time of 6:30–7:00pm. A 9:30pm curfew is achieveable.

The ride will be weather dependent tonight I would think. The pretty colours (http://www.metservice.com/national/maps-rain-radar/rain-radar-forecasts/rain-forecast-3-day) on the metservice website show a shitload of rain headed our way.

Ok thanks for that Hiss, i read the discussion forum and to be honest it sounds a bit vague, people not going or not knowing for sure if they will turn up, :scratch: I dont know how many peeps you normally have at your ride nights, it seems a more deffo arrangement at the south ride so unless i hear from you and your group otherwise I will stick with my original plan. :ride:
Raincheck for another time though? :niceone:
Regards,
Chaos. :devil2:

To be honest I've only done a couple so far, but it sounds like there's always at least 4-5 people (occasionally only 1 or 2, but rarely). Plenty of Summer left so mayas well go on as many different rides as possible.... I think the Southies have a sat ride , and we have a Sunday ride. Anyway, no dramas :D

And Caseye's just trying to steer you away from us far friendlier northerners ;)

Well, we got to The BP at Papakura for 18:04, :sweatdrop worried that we were a tad late met one solitary biker called Martin, AKA Jafar, we waited til gone ten to seven only for no-one else to turn up, :zzzz: so we ventured out on a twistie road for about 40 kms, stopping twice, once to check out a view and again to stop a local bike haunt that looked from the outside like a western type saloon. :2guns:
We then took off again down Pioneer Road til we got to the The Village Bar & Kitchen where there was a Hot Rod evening. :ride:
We stayed there and chatted for about an hour before heading back and unfortunately getting absolutely soaked while riding through some major rain showers and hail storms, ( that'll teach me to clean my f**king Blade i thought ). :angry2:
So ! So much for me turning up to the South Auckland ride as it seemed that it was more planned and that more people would be turning up rather than going to the North Auckland night, but at least the evening was saved by the thoroughly nice bloke ( Martin ) that we met, even if the night ended up being a total washout.
Thanks mate. :niceone:
Cheers.

[buellbabe]

We are a pretty relaxed lot southside...

I have only manged to do one Sth Auck Thursday nite ride but I thoroughly enjoyed it, so cool having all these great roads literally RIGHT THERE!

FYI, I don't really do New Years resolutions but if I was gonna do one it would be to make an effort to do more Thursday nite rides.
See you guys soon:yes:

[DidJit]

Jafar definitely knows a few good roads to the pub. :innocent: :whistle: ;)

About time all these part-timers (myself included these days) started showing up with some more regularity. Soon peoples, soon.

[buellbabe]

Well my excuse has been work...lots of it but I am now able to work from home so thats free-ing me up a bit :-)

[jafar]

Hey Karl , thanks for coming along, was a nice ride up into the hills & to the pub to have a perv @ the hot rods on display:niceone:

As for the rest of you, where were you??:weird: an excellent night for a ride, nice twisty back roads, lots of scenery, good company:bleh:.

Was Coronation Street really that good? :devil2:

This was the first ride I have been able to get to for months, work commitments have kept me away. Pity that apathy seems to have taken hold of the ride, it is only as good as we make it people.:violin:

[idleidolidyll]

Catch 22

The more who ride; the more who ride

If bugger all ride, bugger all turn up next time

[Thani-B]

My excuse was that I'm poor and still in holiday mode. And that I had a job trial this morning and had to be up nice and early for that. Maybe next week.

So very true :niceone:

Do we have to organise another ride to a topless bar to get more along ??:whistle:

[caseye]

Someone say topless bar?
Now that was a ride ah Crazy Steve!
Pity about the numbers, i was riding but the Nonda's gear linkage literally feel off and I had to take it and the associated bits down to Waiuku, by car to the Bro inlaws to have it all put back right.
it was and the Nonda is again on the road. Coal burner gets work started on reassembling next week.
Happy New year you guys.

[Thani-B]

[Theflash]

Most excellent ride, met 2 first time Thursday night riders, good on you fellah's.
Went to the pub @ Kaiaua for a pint, up coast rd, through Clevedon and home again. What a great night.

I would harass all you slack bitches for not being there, but I have missed a few lately :innocent:

Maybe next week we can get it together.

[xen]

Yeah mint ride bro, good times

[caseye]

Since when does the South Auckland Thursday Night Ride leave before 7pm!@#$%
I arrived at the AutoBahn at 18.45 hrs, no one there! Waited till 1925hrs and then took off for Waiuku got some stuff done on the bike at me bro in laws place.
Rode home thinking bunch of pansies, great night no one showed up.
Pleased that they did.
but damn annoyed at being left right out.
We gather from 6pm onwards and leave at 7pm, often we'd wait a bit longer too cause theres always a slacker or two who's bike doesn't start first time or whatever.

[Thani-B]

:sunny:Happy Birthday :sunny:

Thanks :)
My excuse was that I was being taken out to dinner by my lovely boyfriend :D

For the record.
It's meet anywhere between 6pm and 6.30pm, wait till 7pm later if we know people are coming then off to the destination. It was a great night for riding you USELESS bunch of ex regular SATNRiders.
Thani-B, sorry I forgot too, Hope it was a good night out and that it cost him HEAPS!
Belated Happy Birthday wishes.

Well 4 turned up tonight:niceone::niceone:
idleidolidyll That was a good pace mate used 22ltrs of gas in 200ks:chase:
Loved the roads, hey saw you Nealy have some rabbit,cat and possum stew on the way back on 22:eek:
I take it the others found you at the turn off to the muddy
Thani hope to see you next......

[caseye]

Thani-B If I have to ride a bloody pony I WILL make it to one or both of the next two rides, can't have you leaving town without a decent send off!
Good to hear that there was a ride tonight, happy i stayed home but, cams timed tappets done engine sealed up and awaiting installation into not yet reassembled frame.

[idleidolidyll]

Well 4 turned up tonight:niceone::niceone:
idleidolidyll That was a good pace mate used 22ltrs of gas in 200ks:chase:

really? My GPS says I averaged 81kph while moving and did 218kms (from my home in Manukau).
I didn't gas it up much and I'd be surprised if I used more than 14 or 15 litres. I'll fill up later and let you know.

Loved the roads, hey saw you Nealy have some rabbit,cat and possum stew on the way back on 22:eek:

Yeah, friggin rabbit crossed the road in front of me then decided to make a dash back home again. I had to swerve a little to avoid rabbit stew. I tried to keep the bike directly upright as I was pretty sure i was gonna run the little bugger over.

I take it the others found you at the turn off to the muddy

Yeah, I waited and made sure they knew the way home.
Thani hope to see you next......

Route:

Turn off southern Mway at Drury. Turn right and ride under Mway onto Karaka Rd. Turn 1st left on Great South Rd and then right onto Runciman Rd.
Follow Runciman rd to its end and turn left on Pukekohe East Rd/Mill Rd and turn right after a couple of kms onto Harrisville Rd. Go about 200 metres and turn left onto Jericho Rd. Follow Jericho for about 5km. After the very sharp left hander, continue for a few hundred metres and veer right with Jericho Rd rather than going straight ahead on Beaver Rd (follow the centre line around the R/H curve).
Jericho Rd ends at Harrisville Rd. Turn left and follow that all the way through Tuakau town centre. At the intersection, turn left onto Buckland Rd/George St/River Rd (the road changes name depending on location) and follow that road until you cross the Waikato River over the Tuakau Bridge.
Turn left after the bridge and you are on SH22. Follow that for around 25km and turn left onto Glen Murray Rd. This is the tight twisty road that winds around Lake Whangapu.
Follow that road for about another 10km and when the road comes out on the flatland, watch for the turn off onto Rotongaro Rd on your right.
Follow that road until you hit an intersection where you'll have to stop. Turn right onto Hetherington Rd and after just about 100 metres, turn left onto Waikokowai Rd (there's a hall or something on that corner).
10km or so later you'll have to stop at another intersection in the small town of Waikokowai. Turn left and follow past the Rotowaro coal mine (open cast). You'll hit another intersection. At that point, if you go left, you'll end up in Huntly. We turned right toward Waignaro on Rotowaro Rd. Follow that road until you hit the next intersection. The road ahead is Waignaro Rd and going left takes you toward Ngarawahia. We turned right to Waignaro Hot Springs and stopped just after the Hot Springs where the road heads back toward Tuakau on SH22. Where we stopped, the other road goes toward Raglan and is a wonderful twisty road with tricky corners.
We then pretty much followed that road back to Pukekawa where I stopped at the Mercer turnoff to wait for the others.

I'd post a Google Map or my Garmin GPS map address but I don't trust the pigs who would use any overtaking speeds we may have hit to prosecute (its been done before when people posted videos etc).

If you want that detail (map with lots more detail, pm me). I'll only send that to those on the ride or those I know very well.

[idleidolidyll]

Well 4 turned up tonight:niceone::niceone:
idleidolidyll That was a good pace mate used 22ltrs of gas in 200ks:chase:


Just filled up: mine used 13.9 litres in 210km (roughly 15km per litre which is about normal for me at an easy pace)

That's one thirsty VStrom you have! 9km per litre; that's about what the wifes 20 year old Toyota gets

[howdamnhard]

Thanks for leading the ride Idleidolidyll . Hope I didn't hold you up too much,at least nobody binned. Some really awesome roads out that way. Would appreciate a map of the route if you would pm it to me.

[Badgerclarke]

Thanks for the ride fellas, hope I didn't hold anyone up too much. Idle...top man for waiting and making sure that I got home in the dark. Note to self...remember to bring a clear visor when riding unknown pitch black roads!!! Thanks again guys.
