South Auckland Thursday Night Ride

[The_Dover]

Alright then you homo's in order to save a 100km round trip to the Albany Pub and avoid the attention of the filth I'm organising a South Auckland Thursday Night Ride.

Organising being a loose description. I have a route in mind, sadly I don't know where the pubs are around south yet but I will endeavour to lay on a box of piss on the comfort of the deck at Chez Dover's Cuntry Gateaux. Mucho biko parko.

If you are keen for a tootle tonight on a few goat tracks at reasonably legal speeds then post a reply and I'll set about organising details. I'll do this via PM to those who are interested as I don't want any fucking pigs turning up, I won't be carrying my guns as they ruin the lines of my leathers.

I'm not going to waste time on rules etc because essentially it's a free country but if you piss me or anyone off then you'll get told to fuck off anyway, or run into a ditch depending on what sort of day I have in the orifice.

Open to all - except pigs, coons and homosexuals. (unless they bring weed!)

[McJim]

I've got to see to the weans first (tuckin them in and stories and suchlike) - but since I was spouting off about exactly this kind of thing yesterday I should at least turn up.

Jist meetin' at chez vous?

PM me the details Big Yin.

McJim

[The_Dover]

Planned meet up at a gas station just off the southern at around 6.30pm. That is if anyone is interested, otherwise I'll PM you my address.

Vic and I will be taking the gixxers out for a spaz anyway but as people have spoken about this before and no one has organised it I thought I'd hop on the good foot and do the bad thing.

and coons and homosexuals are welcome btw, just no pigs.

[Karma]

Open to all - except pigs, coons and homosexuals. (unless they bring weed!)

Guess I'll leave my black police boyfriend at home then!

[The_Dover]

Guess I'll leave my black police boyfriend at home then!

I didn't realise dyna was an ethnic?

[texmo]

[The_Dover]

If I had a spare then yeah no worries!

Vicky might let you go pillion on the 750 though. How BIG are your balls?

not that big....

[Swoop]

Fantastic guys!!!

Keep an eye out for a suitable "clubrooms" watering hole along the way, and it is all off to a good start!
The more rides organised around town on a Thursday night, the larger the resources of the ecilops will need to be...:scooter:

[Fatjim]

not that big....
Then you should fit nicely.

[BigB]

Haven't been on any of the Thursday night rides but as this one is down south would be keen as the weather's looking good.

cheers

B

[McJim]

Weather has turned shite here in Ponsnobby - still looking nice south east or is it shite there too?

[The_Dover]

Any weather updates from out south? I'm not riding the goat tracks in this shite so if it's wet out there then the ride is postponed until next week!

[Maverick]

Any weather updates from out south? I'm not riding the goat tracks in this shite so if it's wet out there then the ride is postponed until next week!

Its just started raining here in Penrose, and I didnt bring wet weather pants to work.

Damn.


ah well, at least its only a 3 minute drive to home.

[TerminalAddict]

well I was thinking of coming up for a blast .. but if the weather is shit .. I'll head south :)

[LilSel]

Its just started raining here in Penrose, and I didnt bring wet weather pants to work.

Damn.


:yes:... Im in penrose too n its just spitting at mo... but some huge mofo black clouds rollin in...
just put bike round the back undercover.
didnt bring my wet weather pants either :doh:

[Qkchk]

Well its fine in Albany bugger its raining out south huh? Have fun trying to organise a weekly ride Dover, its not as easy as people think.

[The_Dover]

Fark organisation, I tell them the start time and, if they show up, the route and end point and if they get lost or fuck around it's not my problem!

We're all adults, somewhere deep down.

[SwanTiger]

Check out the Rain Radar on metservice.co.nz - it looks like there might be a shower comes through but I'd say that will be all for tonight.

Anyway, I'll have to organise my own ride, will post up details soon.

[The_Dover]

It's still pissing here in town and if a shower does pass thought then the roads I had in mind will still be wet and no fun.

I'll keep it pencilled in for next week tho.

[Scouse]

It looks loik its clearing up now out south now I am at the airport and the rain has cleard away

[Zed]

We're all adults, somewhere deep down.Haha Dover the voice of reason! Did you know that word "adult" comes from the word 'adultery'??

I hope these South Auckland rides take off, good onya for 'just doing it' Ben. Might join ya's some time.

[The_Dover]

Ok, any one who is keen for a ride be at the Mobil Gas Station off the Hill Rd off ramp (turn left off the off ramp) at 6.30, capiche? I'll swing by on my way home and if you're there we can go for a look, if not I'll go home and light the fire.

[Maha]

No between Manukau and Manurewa (sp) where they have the flower show thingy..... not that i should know that....

[BigB]

Sorry guys but got soaked on the way home and wet gear isn't fun. Would be keen for next week though

cheers

B

[Maverick]

Cheers for the Ride, had a great time and weather was good.
Hope to ride with you guys again sometime,

:rockon:

[McJim]

Wow - what a blast - twisty twisties in the dark! Thanks to Vixter for babysitting the noob at the back of the bunch - certainly has given me more confidence in my handling.

Thanks to all that turned up for making it a good night - good to put names to the avatars!

See you all next week - missus permitting!

[TerminalAddict]

good fun had by all ;)

280 kms and I'm fucked.

cheers to dover for the riding gear .. I hit fog in the waikato and got pretty wet, but not cold :) I'll courier it back to you, or we can hook up some time.

and I'm proud to say I have ridden with the_dover and not crashed :D

[McJim]

and I'm proud to say I have ridden with the_dover and not crashed :D

Do we get badges and shit? Sorry Mr Joe1313.

I found a great trick to riding with the_dover and not crashing....make no attempt to keep up:rofl:

Mind you he was true to his word and the speeds were reasonably legal - we even saw plod with lights on after someone else when we got our fish and chips. the difficulty in keeping up with Dover lies within the legal speed limit but on very twisty roads in the dark - best not attempted unless you really know what you're about.

Great organisation, great hospitality and great roads.

[Swoop]

Great to hear!!!
So riding = Tick.
Fish 'n chips = Tick.
Good watering hole???

[The_Dover]

we had a six pack of speights at my place.

would you park your bike outside the pub in papakura?

[McJim]

There's a wee Irish pub at Botany Junction
There's the White Horse Tavern in Pakuranga
There's a Cock and Bull at Botany town Centre
There are quite a few pubs in Howick.

Chez Dover is nice though - needs some sort of outdoor lighting coz it took me 4 minutes to get the key in the ignition of my bike in the dark.,

And I never drink alcohol if I'm riding so cannot comment on the beer - the coke was nice - soft drink was tasty too.

[Ixion]

Red fox. or that other place on the left on the road out to wozzaname. Past the gravelly bit. I know where I mean.

Or if y'want a bit of a ride, that Springs place. Waingaro ? Head off at Huntly past the coal mine and keep going for a bit. Very nice.

[adiddy]

damn it, just found this post to... next week im going 4 sure(weather permitting and foljks asswell)
i rekon that the two fat cows at ramarama would be ideal!!!!!
theres bound to be a back way to get there, and then just jump on the motorway to get home - just my idea a

[adiddy]

yerrr papakura wouldnt be bad either Dover, are you talking about the old roadhouse?? its bnow called STAMPEDE-in the middle of the town centre?!
JUST the piggys are around the corner they would be likely to try get us for DIC

[Swoop]

would you park your bike outside the pub in papakura?
Only if it's outside Rennie Lines.....

[adiddy]

Only if it's outside Rennie Lines.....

what's the Rennie Lines??

[Swoop]

what's the Rennie Lines??
A pest eradication service based in Papakura...

[Ozzie]

Rather than the White Horse, the White House in Paps is alright, right next to the Motorway too, or onto Clevedon Rd, for the back roads to Botany.

The smokers at the White House will be able to keep an eye on the Bikes, as smoking is on the Verandah over looking the car park.

[RM125king]

yeah i would be keen for around papakura ways as well

[The_Dover]

Will still be on this week guys. PM me for details and we'll go from there. If I don't get straight back to you it's cos I'm a slack cunt but I'll let you know by lunchie poos thursday!

PM Dover i dont wanna pm the "wrong " person
good meeting place.. i reckon we should go to stampede Dover

[Ozzie]

Fuck....Yuk!!!!

Are you a rough head?

Or do you want rough heads fucking with your bike????

My Vote the White house!

Just trying to arrange a 12 hour loan so I can come along, jeeze I hate payday eve!

[Ozzie]

What root are we taking?

[TerminalAddict]

don't say root around the_dover !!!!

geez man, you're asking for trouble

[The_Dover]

I'm not posting the route and in future will try and vary it to avoid pissing of locals and gaining unwanted attention from the fuzz.

It is tight and dark, like a nun's naughty bits and licence losing speeds are a no no for the most part, unless you are a fan of nocturnal botanical studies.

[Dai]

Lesuirely jaunt suites me. Still working off a banned licence in the UK for exceeding the posted speed limits (7 years) dont want to have to do this over here also.

I also find high speed night time runs knackering.

2 years in the mid 90's as an intercity bike courier in UK clocking up over 250,000 miles in that time. Done my high speed stuff.

I will be content to follow.

[The_Dover]

Ok, for those not riding and just want to meet us there the pub will be the Clevedon Hotel, unless there are any good objections??

[McJim]

Objections?

Did you ASK the Clevedon hotel?

Nae objections from me - I know how to stagger home from there.

[The_Dover]

Do we need to ask the pub if we can go for a beer?

[adiddy]

uhh id ask them mate... dont know where it is.... dont wanna choose sumthing more local?! im not too fussed a:beer:

[McJim]

Do we need to ask the pub if we can go for a beer?

Sorry,
I lived in London too long - got used to having to ask permission from pubs to enter on account of being Glaswegian.

Thi kiwis obviously have no such hang ups!

[The_Dover]

Do you really think we are riding around Papakura?

If they don't appreciate the custom of 10+ bikers then we don't go back. Simple.

I refuse to ask if we can go to a public bar for a beer, fuck that. If my money isn't good enough for them then I'll stick it up my own arse.

[Ozzie]

uhh id ask them mate... dont know where it is.... dont wanna choose sumthing more local?! im not too fussed a:beer:

I drink there reasonably often, they will have no objections, bikers often go there.

There is a nice big fire out the back too, with picnic tables, provided it doen't do the "R" thing, it will be nice, and bikes will be safe.

If you like, I will give Kevin a call, ensure he is happy with the idea.

What sort of numbers are we looking at?

Adiddy, piece of piss to get back to Paps, it is on the Clevedon - Kawakawa Bay Rd, a main drag, you've prob been past it a 100 times.

[McJim]

Fuck - I was trying to be flippant I didn't for a moment think we'd be refused entry.

I'll shut up now.:shutup:

[adiddy]

yeah just did sum research shouldnt be too bad !
will be good

[Big Dave]

I'll shut up now.:shutup:



:baby::baby::baby:

[The_Dover]

Hey Dave,

We'll probably be there at about 8'ish if you're still gonna join us.

Or you could come on the ride.

[Big Dave]

Hey Dave,

We'll probably be there at about 8'ish if you're still gonna join us.

Or you could come on the ride.

Ahh bugger - I got caught up with work - 7.50 and I just got clear - good intentions - catch you next time hopefully. thanks anyway.

[gijoe1313]

Great ride tonight, thanks Dover - I can't believe it, I didn't bin it riding out with you in the lead again tonight! :msn-wink: Well lead run and great group to ride with at night. Was fark'n great to put names and faces to nicks - nice little blat around the back blocks which I normally do in the day!

I turned up to Dover's place around 6pm with a load of fush'n'chups with a nasi gorang in my backpack (1st time to ride with consumables sloshing around!), McJim popped in and after a little nibble we fired off to BP Takanini where a lovely sight was beheld... bikers and their rides dominating the parking bays :headbang: Some shite was spouted, more shite listened to - McJim holding court with his antics and me slobbering over the bikes on display :drool:

The blat went quite quickly, twisties galore and some loose stuff on the roads which was ably pointed out by the stops Dover made (got to practice my uphill starts!). As for my perspective I had the odd pucker moment :sick: when a cager cut his corner into my line and I had to fire off to the left more - saw white stripe and my Asphalt Angel leaning over me! Overcooked one corner which saw me intrude into the other lane a bit :Oops:

The guys up front roared off on the straights and I just pootled along and made it up in the twisties. One stage I thought there was an alien UFO behind me - everything was lit up bright as day! Turns out it was Croft on her machine with bling bling headlights! :blink: Turned up a hill and I had to switch to reserve when I felt loss of power (memories of puttering out of gas before Meremere came back! :whistle:) but knew I had plenty in the tank this time!


Great sess at the pub to spin some yarns and talk about bikes and stuff in general! Will post up some piccies a little later on once I get the old Mac firing up! Nice ride guys and gals - had a blast and enjoyed confusing people with my bling bling tyre valve LED lights :rolleyes:

Spotcha all on the next ride out!
:chase: :cool:

[McJim]

I enjoyed mysel'

Apparently I'm a lot more gloomy on the keyboard than I am in real life so sorry aboot that. Must remember to smile when I'm typing.:)

Good tae meet yazall!

Big Dave -wiz lookin' forward to meeting you and havin' a wee blether. Shame about work gettin' in the way. Mibbe next time.

Nice pub byraway!

Beseeinyeez!

The McJim

[The_Dover]

Good ride folks, no bins and no pigs.

A couple of quiet shandies afterwards and then I swapped bikes with bjorn, good to see you again yah big poof, to try and get rid of his chicken strips but there were no twisties on the way back to my Cuntry Mansion.

Thanks for coming folks, make sure you let me know for next week and I'll PM the details.

[gijoe1313]

As promised, sorry for the naff quality of the shots - guess I need to do some work on my skillz as a photog :innocent: These were taken at the start point of the ride.

Damn! McJim seems to be in all the bleeding bluddy shots I take!:weep:

[Ozzie]

Well here's the pix folks, they are crap, as predicted!

GI, which were you?

Been meanin to catch up for a while, but didn't ralise you were there? Can't remember seein a hornet, but truth be told, wasn't really lookin at the bikes.

Dover, great ride mate, good to put faces to names, and meet a few southerners, all good, bling for you, like you need it!

All, great fun, a little sphincter tightening at points, but a good night out, thanks for coming.

What am I looking at?

[Ozzie]

OK, would have been some bling, apparently I need to spread it around?????

WTF?

I can't remember giving you any bling, oh well, I owe you one.

[gijoe1313]

GI, which were you?

Been meanin to catch up for a while, but didn't ralise you were there? Can't remember seein a hornet, but truth be told, wasn't really lookin at the bikes.

OZ

I didn't realise you were Ozzie until just now! We were shooting the breeze as the last holdouts at the pub! :lol: We had a quick yarn at the roundabout when ye sez "Ya know where to go?" and I sez "Shure! I live around here!"

:weep: Go figger! Duhdamn! And yer son came up to me when I was on duty after school and had a quick natter with me!

Ah well, guess we need ta' work this out better!

[Ozzie]

:weep: Go figger! Duhdamn! And yer son came up to me when I was on duty after school and had a quick natter with me!

OK, so I know now, all good. It was good to kind of meet you.

BTW.....My son is 2, 3 next week, not too sure he'd be comin up for a chat, where do you work? At a school I take it, which? My kids go to Cosgrove.

[gijoe1313]

So here are the two shots that were barely legible after we got to Clevedon, down pub! Nowt but nowt shite in the shots...I need lessons or better gear :(

[boomer]

Cheers Benji for the :beers:, food, ride and chat.. always fun :2thumbsup

Man i need a gixxer thou, that bike is .... .. ... .. ummmm... .. ... awesome!

well, i thought i'd take it steady as i never managed to scrub the tyres in and boy did i take it steady.. Korn/dmntd if you think im slow normally you would have hit me tonite, the bike never tipped once :weep: i left with 3 inch strips and came back with 3 inch strips!

nice to put a few names to faces and i'll get my ass into gear again soon :cool:

[gijoe1313]

OK, so I know now, all good. It was good to kind of meet you.

Hmmm don' tell me theres two riders which I have confoolzed myself now! Alfriston College I be teaching at! Must go over my old messages again :lol:

[Dai]

Thanks very much for a great ride. Thanks for taking it a little easy on an old fella. I havent worked the bike like that for quite a while and it sure needed it.

It was great to be able to put faces to the alias'.

BTW my lady wishes to thank you all as well. This was only the second time she has been on a bike and she thoroughly enjoyed herself. I've introduced her to both of my sports/hobbies now (bikes and guns) and she is supprised at how much she enjoys both. She was actually talking last night about getting a little scooter to get to and from work. Two weeks ago she joined my pistol club and is going for her handgun licence now she wants to ride a bike.

You fellow KB ers were great. It was just the intro to bike riding she needed.

I loved the roads. I had forgotten how different it was riding unknown roads at night. Shit myself a few times.

I will be definitely in for another gentle jaunt.

Dai.

[McJim]

Damn! McJim seems to be in all the bleeding bluddy shots I take!:weep:

Here's an idea.....point the camera at someone else then!

I'm amazed you managed to catch me in the middle of Nessun Dorma - thought no-one noticed that.

[The_Dover]

I've introduced her to both of my sports/hobbies now (bikes and guns)

I fuckin knew Ulysses was a gang!!

[Dai]

I fuckin knew Ulysses was a gang!!

Not a member of that group but if they allow shooters I'm in.

Dover, we had a great time last night. Thanks for the run. PM me for the next. Who knows I may one day be able to keep your tail lights in view for longer than the first 30 seconds of a run. Then again maybe not.

Have to try those roads in daylight sometime.

Dai

[The_Dover]

Glad you enjoyed it mate.

Hopefully when daylight savings comes around we can go a bit further afield and find some more decent pubs.

I'll try and find another route for next week to mix it up a bit and if anyone wants a map of where we went I can flick one out via email and you can go have a look over the weekend in the light of day!

[Ozzie]

I wouldn't mind a map please mate, will PM email addy

[Dai]

Map would be good.

Will also PM my e-mail address

Dai

Made up for it by having a quick blat out to the city to have a quick shufty in Borders and then back home again. Not the same as when you're clenching your buttocks going around the goat track at night with Dover...and you do need to clench with Dover :msn-wink:

Next time! Damn you! Next time - oh, yes, I will!

[sillywilly]

i mean what happened to the zzr silly willy?

get up you lazy bastards,some of us have to work.zzr traded in at Amps,I wouldn't recommend it to you to replace the gpx for the goat track though.

[BigB]

Thanks for the ride guys and girls, Dover sets a hell of a pace over the goat track.

The new bulbs worked well and only a couple of butt clenching moments.

See you next week

[texmo]

Fucking wicked roads dover will be around to do it again.
chur

[Ozzie]

Is there a run on tomorrow night?

[The_Dover]

yes, i'll post a new thread and i want people to add their names to the calendar so I PM everyone the details.

it's not rocket science

[Ozzie]

yer right, it is hard to have rocket science without a rocket.

Besides, in the absence of a thread, or calendar event, thought I would ask the question

[The_Dover]

settle petal, I wasn't getting at you, merely stating that I'm GOING TO start a new thread.

hmm, you're right. some cunt nicked my rocket. it was a recurring calendar entry AFAIK.

I'll start a new one now.

[McJim]

Enjoyed myself again last night. Think the pace is up on the first few times coz it's getting difficult to keep up with you fellas on my 250 now.:rofl:

Once again good to put names to faces - a good turnout too.

Excellent work organising this Dover.

Cheers big yin.

[Dai]

I'm getting more than a little p1ssed.

Last week I go and screw up my lower back and have trouble even getting on the bike.

This week I'm all set to go, we have a server crash at work and I have to stay behind to repair.

Bollocks to it all I've missed two good rides. Next week the world better be ending in order to stop me.

[Zed]

Well this week i thought i'd travel south to check out this SATNR, i think there were about 10-12 bikes turn up which was a comfy group and easy to keep together, especially up that tricky 'goat track', awesome little narrow challenging road that, 1st time down there for me and i'm sure glad it was in the daylight!! :shit:

Apart from a very close call with a pukeko and a tiny rabbit running across the road my ride was fun and care free, was a nice medium pace set throughout without hardly any opportunities to open up the throttle to licence-losing speeds. :cool:

Good company & atmosphere afterwards at the watering hole, always neat to meet & ride with new and old faces! :niceone:

[Fishy]

especially up that tricky 'goat track', awesome little narrow challenging road that

Hey Matt, is that Twilight Road you are referring to? The one coming out of Clevedon?.

[Ozzie]

Good fun ride, thanks again Dover.

Kind of expected to see some sights as TEC, specially given the light and increased pace, but all good.

Our pace was a little slow, so TEC worked well for us. Had one butt clencher, just before the turn off onto Clevedon Rd, loose stuff had both wheels moving around under us, but all good.

Fishy: Twilight Rd is the one we were on leaving Clevedon after our little stop, big long and very tight in spots, lovely piece of road, can be quite nasty in the wet, lots of moss in the centre of the lanes.

Anyway, all good, great to see the crew again, have a good weekend guys.

[Zed]

Hey Matt, is that Twilight Road you are referring to? The one coming out of Clevedon?.Nah Josh, this is some back road hidden from the populace that winds it's way thru the bush, often with no road markings whatsoever and only wide enuf to fit 1 car & 1 bike in places! I can't recall the name of it but Dover may tell...

[Fishy]

Nah Josh, this is some back road hidden from the populace that winds it's way thru the bush, often with no road markings whatsoever and only wide enuf to fit 1 car & 1 bike in places! I can't recall the name of it but Dover may tell...

Crikey, didn't know there was a road thats more of a goat track than Twilight...

[Blackbuell]

Crikey, didn't know there was a road thats more of a goat track than Twilight...

Well Fishy,i have lived in Howick for 20 years,the road Dover took us on last night,i never new existed,it's better than twilight rd,

Good to go on a ride thats a bit closer to home,miss the lane splitting thou,Good to meet some new faces & some from out west,Dover led the group very well,just have to see if we can have a chat to the pub to see if they can have some grub for us,will see ya all next week.

[Ozzie]

I'm sure Kevin at the pub would put something on if he knew we were going to be there every week.

I think Dover wants to change it though.

Happy to bring it up, but have to be sure we will be there, I know the guy reasonably well, don't want to piss him off.

[The_Dover]

No, we'll keep the same pub if everyone is happy there, I like it.

It's just the route that I'm going to vary.

[Ozzie]

ok, I'll have a word with him, see if he would be happy to put on light fry ups for 10 or so people each week.

Is that what we're looking for?

[BigB]

Once again thanks to Dover, it made a a change this week being able to see the goat track. Good pace and good company what more could you ask for.

see you next week

B

[Ozzie]

Spoke to them, they would be happy to put something on, like nibbles chips, spring rolls or similar.

I suggested for 10 people, ariving between 8 and 8:30.

Said I would firm things up later, not sure what, but will give them a call after a few more posts.

[The_Dover]

good shit ozzie, sounds a goer to me.

[BigB]

Big ups Ozzie:2thumbsup :2thumbsup

be nice to have some food after the ride

cheers

[Blackbuell]

Sounds like the go with the food cheers Ozzie

[sillywilly]

food is good.beats reheating cold curry in microwave at 10pm.another great ride, heaps more fun with a bit of day light.goat track is always good for prevention of squared-off back tyre from the motorway commute.only problem, still buzzing and wide awake when i was trying to get to sleep.
cheers all

That would be me. Thanks for that, was completely lost.
Had a great first group ride bar 1 arse clenching moment.
Cheers Dover for organizing it. Hope I can make it next time.

[Ozzie]

Dover, let me know how many are intending to go tonight.

Am going to ring the Pub at lunch time and remind them, might be good if I can give them a feel for numbers.

Still planning to get there 8 - 8:30?

Oh, and I can't make it, kiddy duty tonight, but look forward to next week, enjoy!

[The_Dover]

I can't make it tonight sorry folks.

I'm broke as fuck.

Anyone else still keen for a ride, I'm sure we can work something out

Cheers

[Ozzie]

Fuck it, and I just organised the food, someone better take the lead, and make sure your at the Clevedon pub a bit after 8.

FOOD WILL BE WAITING....Don't want to burn our bridge on the first night.

McJim and Boomer both know the way.

[BigB]

I'm still keen, maybe we meet up at the usual place/time and sort the route out from there.

cheers

B

[McJim]

Various reasons - I can't make it tonight.

Offspring
Lack of fuel
Bike really needs serviced

I have no money until sale of cars completed.

[BigB]

John.

[gijoe1313]

Well cheers for the meet and greet and ride! Apologies to those I didn't meet but will do so next time! Had great time watching all the big machines turn into little dots and then riding hard to try and catch up in twisties.

Enjoyed the pub food and the snippets of biking info (this stuff is like gold to a newbie like me!), had plenty o'fun!

So much in fact that even riding out with one other that when we parted ways at the Takanini interchange, I rode around the block and then headed out to Dorkland Central! From there to Mission Bay, St Heliers down through GI, out to Panmure, tootled around Pakuranga to Howick and then did Chapel Rd back to Takanini! :lol: I managed to resist the urge to ride to Hamilton this time!

Thanks to BigB for taking over as Sqd Cmdr from Dover, I sat Tail Gunner and enjoyed eating stone chips from the bigger bikes up front :( but it was all good :hug: :chase:

Carpe Diem for the next ride!

:lol: it was another typical spur of the moment thing with me, I thought "shite, wondered if ol'Liam woulda joined me for a late night blat! Ah well, hes a busy lad he is!" I rode past Ellerslie and thought "wonder if any other bikers are out tonight?" ... nary a two-wheeler in sight unless you count a couple of pushies I saw going through GI!

Next time Liam! Next time!

[boomer]

Nah, meant the AMA thing and the ref to mr korn


i've hooked up with Korn a few times and on one trip to Raglan we were chattin about all the crashes etc... there was a spate ( speight :) ) of 'em and Rik said.. you bloody mobile accidents; hence my quote. Although you'll be pleased to hear Auckland covers the whole North Island :lol:

[BigB]

Hi All

Well once again a good night had, thanks to Ozzie for getting the Clevedon pub to put the grub on, it was worth the wait. A bit slower pace this week but the Blackbird is no light sports bike though the twisty stuff.

See you all next week

cheers

B

[special_jimmy]

Another great ride, starting to remember the roads too. No arse clenching moments this week.
Good to meet a few new peeps too, and great munchies.
Catch you all next time.

[Ozzie]

Glad to hear you guys had a good ride, and that the pub came to the party.

Out of curiosity, how many bikes / bikers at the pub?

Did you get any "looks" from the locals when the food came out?

Anyway, should be good for next week, look forward to catching you all up then.

ps. will pass on the comments to the Pub, I will be out there tonight.

[BigB]

Hi Ozzie

10 bikes in the end and I didn't see any funny looks from the locals. Thanked the lady who brought the food on the way out and her reply was 'same time next week' to which I replied yes.

So let them know we appricated the food.

Cheers

Brian

[The_Dover]

and tell her I'll be back next week so double the food order

and can I have free beer too?

[Dai]

....free beer too?...

No wonder you get through the Goat Track so fast.....

All these months watching your posts and thinking "no one could be ..... as the others make out"

I was wrong.

[sillywilly]

another awesome ride,thanks BigB for providing this weeks organising and setting the pace,only depressing thing is i had a 250 chasing me the whole way:crybaby: oh the shame.by the way who was that masked man

[The_Dover]

[Crazy Steve]

Would the Dr250 make it there in 2hours and 20minutes...

Maybe??Maybe not??

Crazy Steve..

[Ozzie]

Unfortunately I cannot make the ride as I have just got a prior engagement.

But my partner and I will be meeting you guys at the pub, we should be there around 8:30 ish.

Would have liked to come on the ride, maybe next no kids week.

:Punk:

[The_Dover]

righto, if anyone else wants to come then PM soon

[Ozzie]

I might come to the meeting place for a chat, then go home for my appointment, then meet you at the pub.

Will only be missing the ride.

[sillywilly]

good ride,good food,good company and no fuzz,what more could you want?
see you's next week.

[The_Dover]

yeah, cheers all.

pace was a bit slower this week cos I didn't really know where the fuck I was going and then it got dark and bug ridden.

still, good to see some old mates and some new ones and have a coupleof jars.

we're gonna restructure the rides a bit from now and do a whip around to cover the munchies and build a few bucks for spank and an end of summer bbq/piss up.

i'll discuss the details with the family and post up soon

[The_Dover]

probably boomer trying to do wheelies after a couple of shandies.......

[adiddy]

good idea dover,
when will boomer learn ?!

[boomer]

if it was me, they didn't catch me :scooter:


i managed a couple of 2 footers then stopped for a waz, only to have a young chickie stop and ask if i was ok? i said thanks.. it's all in hand!

lovely cage driver :yes:

[boomer]

ps.. cheers Ben for organising the ride and Ozzie for the food. good riding with everyone.

[The_Dover]

glad you posted boomer, i thought you'd got lost in the badlands and not made it home.................

i know what you northern dorises are like with directions

[Dai]

ps.. .. good riding with everyone.


Wish I could say that. Old and slow. 10 min behind the pack.

One day I hope to halve that.

Another great ride. Another brilliant social night.

My partner was feeling really tired and miserable before comming out with all of you. By the time we got home she was laughing, smiling and happy as hell. For that I thank you.

Dover, she thinks you have a wonderfully sick sense of humour and loved the banter between you and Boomer.

[Ozzie]

Great night chaps and chapettes!

Hopefully will get to do the ride with you lot next time, see how it goes. Was good to make it to the common end point though.

Sorry to all about the bomb shell re the food, I swear I didn't know before hand.

In talking with Dover and Boomer, we have come up with an idea of taking a $5 per head donation at the beginning of each ride. For this donation, you can partake in the nibbles (the food, not Dover), which based on the head count last night was $40, the left over, will be accumulated and perhaps at the end of the year, or the end of summer, we'll have a kick arse Sunday ride, ending up with a free (sort of) BBQ at the pub.

If everyone is in agreement, I will put to the pub that our "group" will use them as the base (a few of us drink there regularily anyway), sort of how their fishing club is set up. Then we can look at having the pub "help us out" with our end of year/season piss up. Not sure what that will get us, but maybe a discount on the piss for the do or something.

So, thoughts?

Oh, there was $20 left over from last night, which I have. If everyone is in agreement, I will get the paper work for a trust account, sort of multiple signatures for withdrawl sort of thing, to keep it all legit.

[boomer]

yeah, cheers Dover. pretty simple from there on in, even a fick norfern munkey like myself can find north ( after a couple of detours )

Dai, you should get out on teh day/weekend rides to build teh confidence. I'm sure in teh daytime you'll be ahead of The_Dover and only 5 minutes behind the pack.

i need to go find a screw for my radar mount as i felt naked last night without my pig spotter:yes:

[sillywilly]

bloody hell,didn't look at the bike till this morning,every forward facing surface has a nice crust of dead bug meat all over it,gonna take a chisel to get that lot off.
building up the piggy bank for a piss up/bbq sounds like a scheme to me

I'll talk to you about it at the pub - cheers for the offer. Going down there on Saturday morning taking it easy. Will probably start heading back to Auckland early Sunday afternoon so we can get the boys tucked into bed at their usual time. So no dramas really. I used to do 6-8 hours of cycling per day so 4 hours on a motorbike should be a piece of piss.

In my youff I frequently rode a 4bhp 125 two stroke to taupo and points south. No problem, just allow an extra half hour.

is that for the slower speed or the roadside repairs?

Milk came from the milkman's cow, into the billy. papers hadn't been invented.

Actually it was mainly to get Suzuki parts, which in them days could only be got from Wanganui. So whenever the Jap bikes broke down it was time to get out the trusty Beezer Bantam. They weren't RELIABLE but you knew that come what may they'd get you home. When I'm buried I want them to bury a Bantam with me, I'm quite certain it'll get me out of there , fire , brimstone, Stygian dark and bottomless pits not withstanding.

and honda's are built for comfort, not speed so he'll be sweet.

My GSX-R is far far more comfotable than my Fireblade. I used to ride the blade for about 30 mins and get a sore arse and wrists, the gixxer I can ride all day without any discomfort.

did you remove the optional dildo attachment from your fireblade?

that's bound to give you a sore arse and the sore wrists come from honda's trademark "reach around strengthening clip-ons", did you notice the funny angle of them and the flesh like texture of the grips??
