[V Twin Raver]

Would loved to have been on this one - you lucky buggers. Weather forecast is looking promising for a great day!! Instead I'm going to carve up some skiers on my snowboard - the mountain too is looking inviting.

Have a great one guys (girls).

[Motoracer]

Sorry Quasie, I better not come on this one. I am too affraid of getting my arse whiped by CK!

Hey CK, wana come to Pukie tomorrow?

[DEATH_INC.]

Bugger,riding sat,can't really afford both days.....

[sAsLEX]

[Two Smoker]

WWWWWHHHHHYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!???????? Why do you guys have to do all the fun stuff when i cant come because my bike is in the shop and im too poor to get it out of the shop:weep: :crybaby: Can't it be next weekend so i can come???? Hey MR are you going to Puke on the next saturday too????? I will be there :niceone:

And all these people that i want to ride with are going to be there, but not me :(

I agree with firestormer, find something bloody boring to do :niceone:

[Quasievil]

Sorry Quasie, I better not come on this one. I am too affraid of getting my arse whiped by CK!

Hey CK, wana come to Pukie tomorrow?

Common MR wont be the same without you !! :doobey:

[Cajun]

Quasi what time you think you due in Whitianga??
Txt me ya anwser i won't be get on chance on net until sunday avo, but i might meet ya guys there,

[Motoracer]

Common MR wont be the same without you !! :doobey:

I'll be going on the track tomorrow so I'll be spending more than enough money for a week.

I would have loved to come but even if I do, my usual riding buddies (with whom I haven't been riding much these days) won't be too fond of me. That's because I'd be blowing off a ride with them to go on a KB one insted (yet again).

What do I do? Not go on either ride and save me some money to go racing at Manfield (hopefully). :2thumbsup

I'll be looking foward to the main ride you are organising though :niceone:

Have fun guys!!

damn, i have to work on saturdays, got to pay for gas somehow. I probably won't be riding for 3 or 4 weeks as the holidays saw me clock up 2000km and with associated fuel/tyre costs that means noodles for tea :D

I think i would have the advantage in a drag race as i'm 62kg 5'10" and from what i've heard about you you're a big dude :Oi: don't even go there :D

[Quasievil]

And the weather IS OUTRAGEOUSLY FINE , if your not riding today man you need a good reason, have a great and safe day everyone YEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Quasievil]

Great ride guys, perfect day and completely incident free. Not a bad turn out either with 6chris6, affman, Doctor Bob, Dss3, richard... 600 gsx k3,and our mate Tim on his K3 750, XJ1200 dude and ummmm fuck cant remember Oh and me if I forgot someone its cause Im cold and not thinking straight,apologies.
The day started of at 9.15 for the Hamilton contigent and AMAZINGLY the Auckland group were already there at Kopu and not the standard 1/2 late, we headed of over the hill which was in pretty good shape a couple of wet spots but all over no problem, The gixxer boys shot out to lead the group and we didnt see much more of them until Whitianga where we stopped for Lunch at a nice little Cafe, FAST service for richard, we thought we were there for no more than a few minutes and his burger was given to him, unfortunetly while he was tucking into that it was realised it was someone elses "shame"

A mother came out from the Cafe to see if when parking we had managed to wake up the Baby, and sure enough two Ducatis next to the open window of the car woke up Bubs alright and with a smile on his face, good boy, a baby that knows class when he sees it.

After lunch away we went over the Hill towards Coromandel ,nice run and a nice set of cheering sightseeors on the hill watching the bikes come through, good to be appreciated! of course I made it look good and got of the side of the bike a bit, ( I know bloody show off)
Got to Coromandel ,regrouped and travelled down to Kopu, prick of a ride lots of cars.
once in Kopu we fuelled up at Mobil and 4 of my Ducati mates showed up which was great, and then another 20 odd bikes turned up, there were bikes everywhere, bloody fantastic!!!
the Auckland bioys headed Home and the rest of us went on down to Paeroa, My mates 999 got a hole in the radiator which slowed us down a bit but we threw some Wynns in it and he plodded home.
5 of us left and we were eager to get home blasting down the Whitikahu straights and some wanker motorist decided we were going to fast and rang the Cops, so at Gordonton a HP was waiting for us and pulled us over, he said he was looking for a yellow bike that was doing 250km/hour, well it wasnt me I cant go that quick and my Ducati is red, we think we knew who it was though, HP boy couldnt do much so off we went to Hammy.
Good day, perfect conditions ansd great company, I hope all you others had a great ride where ever you went and incident free as well.

[Posh Tourer :P]

Good day, perfect conditions ansd great company, I hope all you others had a great ride where ever you went and incident free as well.

Sounds like you guys had fun :) wish i could have been there, tagging along at roughly legal speeds :)

XJ1200 guy I assume was MikeL....

I had a great ride to work and back along a small section of Scenic Drive, all of 40mins there and back today :S Still, work was busy enough to stop me thinking too much about the fine weather outside, except when the motorcyclists dropped in, one on a volty and the other on a F650GS Paris-Dakar.... and of course those guys in open toppers too... Looked like it was a great day to be out and about, even saw a 38 Ford V8 and a Chrevolet Master of the same vintage (ish) out during winter!

[aff-man]

Cheers guys ride was brilliant, first one i have had in a while and i had heaps of fun. BTW richard = coldkiwi/CK. Day was spectacular if not a little chilli in the morning when starting out but warmed up nicely as the day went. I think my gasket was leaking as bit so down on compression it was like ride a bike geared to rev out at 20 000 but only reving out at 14500. But the leak must have been blocked cause it got a bit better when we headed home. I had a bit lot but need to get out there more i think. Thanks to all the guys who came, was a great day

[6Chris6]

I've had a excellent weekends riding to be topped off with todays ride, and what a spectacular one it was :first:
Anyway here's some pics.

[Motoracer]

and AMAZINGLY the Auckland group were already there at Kopu and not the standard 1/2 late

That's cause I wasn't there holding every one up :o

Sounds like you guys had a brilliant ride!! I am really glad to hear that it was incident free too. :)

I am glad I wasn't there to face the HP guy though! How the f*ck did he know the speed was 250K??

[MikeL]

XJ1200 guy I assume was MikeL....


Indeed it was me. Or I. One or the other...
Had a great ride :niceone:

I think the HP guy was a bit of a dick, He checked everyones licences (except mine cause I lost it) and seemed to grill a couple of the guys.
Our arguement went like this..............
No way was anyone of us doing that speed, for one the sun was in our eyes as in sunstrike ,and for two we being modern sports bike riders we understand our obligations as citizens of NZ and we in no way would ever ,I say, ever ,contemplate breaking the speed limit at any time any where on any day, and certainly NOT on sunday.

After that we saluted him and kissed his shoes and swore alegiance to the HP god, hitler himself, and carried on our merry happy way,, together as one conforming unit of modern sports bike riders.

[aff-man]

HAHAHAHAHAHA i would have loved to have been there. Imagine trying to tell a guy (whose bike can maybe break 190 on a good day,downhill,good tyres and in pefect condition) that he was doing 250. Funny stuff :laugh: :laugh: . By the way those three other dukes 1 was a 998 i think but the other two were they 999's or 759's ???? pretty cool stuff!!!!

Bit of a laugh alright.
The others were a 999 a 748 and a 748s as well as my 750ss and Marcus's 748r
Yeah Ducati pretty cool alright .

[Coldkiwi]

hmm... yellow bike doing 250? Thats a mystery... honest it is! :innocent:

After i left you guys at coromandel I went tootling down the coast (what a great road) and despite the cars had a great time down to kopu. I guess when you're in a 'feck, i'm running late' mode, the cars aren't quite such a problem because I find I don' spend much time behind them!

Caught up with a bunch of fast buggers at the kopu bridge (2 x GSXR 1000, 1 naked R1, gsxr 750 and a yellow TLR). I've seen these guys out going through Hunua before so I knew they were fairly freakin quick and was suitably dismayed to find them trundling at 103 after crossing the bridge! Did a bit of quick arthimatic to work out what my average speed needed to be to get back to Auckland by three and decided I needed to be looking more at 120 so went passed and the boys finally decided that safety in numbers could work and got into the Miranda straights sitting on 125.

at that point all hell broke loose and I discovered just what a difference those extra 400cc can make in the hands of suitably skilled riders. Don't think I've ever made it so fast from miranda to clevedon trying to keep up or at least keep ahead of these guys(for brief stints when they stopped to let the TLR catch up). Made it to Howick by 3:10 which I was fairly happy with.

As for calling the HP, it could well have been someone getting confused on their roads and thinking they saw the TLR or me zip past... but the bulletin would've also been out for the gsxrs so possibly not our fault (unless they were nondescript enough to warrant pulling someone over). don't think anyone would've got a number plate anyway!


buckets of fun tho and so good to be out riding on a wonderful day... didn't seem like 3 months since my last thrash

thanks to Quasi for organising a great ride.

Cheers!

[Two Smoker]

Sounds like you guys had a ball :niceone: And yes Quaisi i was one of the ones that didnt ride on Sunday :crybaby: But look out everyone, on thurday TS will be back on the roads being a nana muahahaha....... But instead i worked a 16 hour day (on sunday geez im stupid) 3 hours at the farm, 13 hours doing a fencing job :crazy:
