Well... only certain members of the Rapa Chicky Wednesday Night Ride Club Members can do that trick Ronin.... We can change the name of our group if you dont think it suits ;)

[elle-f]

Well... only certain members of the Rapa Chicky Wednesday Night Ride Club Members can do that trick Ronin.... We can change the name of our group if you dont think it suits because we know that it's you who is really in charge;)

We could form a dance line lol

Hi Elle and Lissa,
I have spoken to the crippled Tart and it sounds like the plan is to meet you guys (generic term) 12.00, BP southern end Dannevirke.
I will txt you Lissa in the morn to check that you are both still going. Just checked the weather, forcast for humid nor'westers, outbreaks of rain, so not to bad.
I will ride down a differant route from Youngtarts car so she does not have to see me riding, don't want her feeling green before lunch.

[yungatart]

We had a dry ride back in the cage - it absolutely hosed down about 5 ks out of Danners - usually rains in Danners and is fine out of it - I blame global warming.. Got stuck behind some dork doing 70 ks for blardy miles
Was a great catch up with you girls tho and definitely need to do it again

Hi girls I just wanted to wish you all a happy and safe new year!!!
I hope you had all a good time - I went to Thailand, Laos and Cambodia for holiday where I catched up with my mom and sister (havent seen them for ONE YEAR!!!!). Had a great time and learned much but I am not able to ride Black Beauty at the moment as a little stupid accident in Cambodia.
Anyway guys you have a great ride - the weather is certainly awesome as I am back now so it has to be great :done: lol

I'm worn out at the end of the day...and then she expects me to put out. Hmmpph.

[elle-f]

HAHAHA@ expecting you to put out..........interesting the reaction when the shoe OR cast is on the other foot and arm huh :laugh:

[Lissa]

HAHAHA... elle its only funny when you get the quote thingy right! Like this:

[Lissa]

I want elle cause she is gorgeous and has an awesome custom shield - shh its a secret

See!!!!!!!!!!

[elle-f]

Lissa i KNOW that.........i couldn't bloody DO it dammit :laugh:

[Alice]

Back at work today so in the land of computers for awhile...

Really enjoyed meeting you both Elle and Mel. Most enjoyable day. Now when I read your posts I can hear your voices and mannerisms which makes it more entertaining.

I can't belive some of the stuff you told me about the guys: That was amusing.

Next time I will be riding even if its persisiting down cause Tart has trouble with the correct pressure on the accelerator with the cast. Luckily she has more control of the hand cast a or we could'a been in TROUBLE. I heard her muttering something about a truck, ......theres a saying, yu know the one, something to do with Tui.

Castlepoint, ......well we had a bit of a chat and I thought maybe it would be good to organise a ride out to Castlepoint with the Wgtn, HB and anyone else that was interested for a get together and meet the faces behind the masks. I like the idea of either camping or staying in the flat or cabins at the motorcamp at Castlepoint, there is plenty of room. There is a restaurant at the settlement, not to flash but its food, and the pub 4km up and over the hill does meals also. Nice ride out there tooo.

Any interest in that idea.

Hi honey, got your PM and have been meaning to get back to ya. Glad you're alive and back with us, moral of the story, don't ride scooters, they're dangerous!! LOL. Catch up soon ok, let us know when you're back on your boy!:love:

[Trudes]

Was a great ride there... lots of straights.. full throttle most of the way.

Yes I saw you two go flying past in the opposite direction yeasterday avo, just after the Mount Bruce car park thingy, the hubby was most disappointed you didn't wave to him (then again he probably wasn't looking, being a bit blind!) Glad you gals had a good ride!:sunny:

Sounds good to me, keep being asked about when the next ride is, and the shrug is starting to wear thin with some I think, so who wants to put their hand up to organise this time? Can I just put my order in and say can we NOT do it over the weekend of the 27/28th Jan plz. Maybe Wellington anniversary weekend? Or is that too short notice?

[skelstar]

Yes I saw you two go flying past in the opposite direction yeasterday avo
Those Rapa girls think that they own the road!...loons.

I couldn't actually put the square brackets in otherwise it looks like this

Have fun!

[elle-f]

Wellington anniversary sounds great. Alice post the times and date and where. I am keen as well for an overnighter. It can't be on the weekend of the 7s because i will be a bit tiddled at the stadium!

MrsK - i always wave at people in fact, to make it more fun for myself i salute*L* and Lissa and i were just talking about it and i knew where we saw you because i remember seeing you two riding quite close together - the other bikes we had been seeing in pairs were more apart. Just an observation.

[Kendog]

Thats cause we really like each other :hug:

[Pickle]

Wellington Anniversary weekend there is a motorcyclist gathering at Herbertville all staying in the motorcamp for the weekend, takeaway meals available at the pub which is over the road. Last time we were there, there was also a cafe. Porangahau is just down the road & their pub does great meals. Everyone is welcome as the back half of the campground is already booked out. If anyone wants to know more they can PM me via Pickle.

Cheers Viv

[elle-f]

OMG how cute are you two!

I remember Waving - honest!!! Usually if I cant wave cause I am too scared to lift my hands I nod... but honestly I remember the two bikes travelling 'snuggly" together and I waved! Darn wish I knew it was you guys! Would have made you stop.

[skelstar]

If you two ride hand-in-hand, which one has the throttle hand?

We know who has the throttle-hand in THAT relationship!

[Trudes]

I'm interested to know how you would have got us to stop!
I remember you both waving, it was his blindship who reckoned you didn't wave. Oh, and we really weren't traveling that close, believe me, a lot of people travel crap loads closer than that!! We ride together a lot, so we have got quite good at knowing what the other does.

:Oi: cheeky, don't tell Nige, he thinks he's the boss!:shutup:

[Alice]

Speaking of people riding closely together, I went riding a few weekends ago with a couple, they have been riding together for 20 odd years, we rode many kms of backcountry roads around the Bay and they where amazing to watch, she was about 1 bike length and just to the right of he the whole ride, the space did not alter at all and watching them reminded me of a couple of birds doing some type of courtship dance with the two of them bobbing up and down the road and leaning into corners with a millisecond delay between them. Awesome to watch.

Would have made the "stop" signal which consists of sticking my foot out and waving both arms in the air as I lose control of my bike and crash in the ditch... just remember it next time ;)

You don't have to go that extreme just to keep me company, Lissa, although I appreciate the sentiment.
We could just do lunch and a gossip again, if you are feeling sorry for me....bring some more ladies with you next time:sunny:

RE - CASTLEPOINT as a weekender.

Mrs Kendog, I was wondering if you, or anyone else that may read this is interested in organising something along the lines of what I mentioned earlier ?

I am good at coming up with suggestions but cannot really be fagged trying to organise it to much. You seem to be a good organising type, I think yu know more people that may show interest than me, I can let people in this area know about it, including some riders that are not KB members. I don't care what date is chosen, if its going to happen, I am flexible to fit in with whatever others prefer. I wasn't thinking along the lines of anything big, just a laid back weekend.

[Lissa]

So Wellington Anniversary is this weekend.. doesnt give much time. I am busy this weekend so cant make it... birthdays etc are on.

[Trudes]

Yeah, if we want to make it an overnighter, then this weekend is a bit of short notice.
I'm not really that good an organiser, but if you guys let me know some details of when and what you want, I'll do my best to organise (i.e, put the word out there).
So what is the plan? Ride to Castlepoint and stay the night there? Where?
And then, what date, and does the weather matter, for instance, if it rains, is it still on?
Problem is, if we book somewhere they often want a deposit or payment to reserve and if we have to cancel for some reason or a bunch of people pull out at the last minute, I don't want to be out of pocket. (Been stung organising things like this before).
Not trying to be difficult or a pessimist, but I just want to be sure what you want me to organise, if you are asking me to do it.
Thanks

[Lissa]

Well I think an overnighter is a big ask.. at short notice. And something alot of us should be involved in organising not just one person i think.

We could always do another chicks ride some where first.. just a day trip, lunch etc.

[Sphinx]

Believe me I learned from this lol. Never liked scooters anyway. I will thanks and you girls have a great ride on the weekend - I will think of you all...cry...

[elle-f]

Why don't we choose a day in the long weekend and then meet in say Woodville and go for a ride from there?

[skelstar]

You guys should meet in, say Pahiatua and do some of the backroads to the East. Alfredton, Pongoroa, Dannevirke etc. Much more interesting.

[Trudes]

That's a good plan Sean :rockon: , I've been wanting to ride that road, and it is definitely the road least traveled! (Ah shite ladies, we can't have a male planning our rides for us:no: ) Maybe we should ask Sugilite to show us some of his secret back roads too!?:shifty:

[skelstar]

...Maybe we should ask Sugilite to show us some of his secret back roads too!?:shifty:
Sugi will be able to tell you which ones arent sealed etc. Goto maps.google.com and (it starts in the USA) just search for Wellington and move from there. www.smaps.co.nz might work too.

[Lissa]

Oh but bugger I am busy Saturday and Monday... might be able to do sunday though. :)

[elle-f]

HEY!! LISSA!!!!

Happy Birthday (40th) to one of the nicest people around

Have a groovy one :Punk:

[Alice]

Feb 6th, Moari Day off, opps not very PC, how about meeting for a ride then aside from an overnighter. You are right of course, its to short notice to plan something for a weekend involving a number people on short notice. Good to put the feelers out, see if there is any interest, float a few dates and see what the general conscensus is, then cause people can never come to agreement on these things someone has to say, right, the weekend of......

The back Roads from Masterton through to Hawkes Bay are cool backcountry windy roads requiring lots of attention, real good to practice riding skills or lack of on.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lissa, have a good day. Hope yu getting spoiled.

[elle-f]

MAORI DAY OFF??.......its more a "We got shafted" day off :laugh: Hopefully my bike will be up to it by then. I need to take it in to get something done to it so it can travel further without having to stop for petrol all the bloody time!

[skelstar]

Anybody? Hee hee...

[elle-f]

nah, it's not a can of worms at all - it's more our different cultures and different understandings of the times i guess......and of course, what we understodd growing up and who we mix with and.......there are a whole myriad of things i won't go into because......i THINK i am heading to welly YAY!

ANYHOW........whatever the day - i am up for the ride!!

[skelstar]

Should mention (the celebrated) Mrs K that Sugi is away down south for another couple of weeks I think. Hitcher would be another to talk to regarding the backroads to Pongoroa/Dannevegas.

[Lissa]

Thanks for the birthday wishes.. alice and elle.. :D

Next ride we do.. I will help organise it. :sunny:

[Alice]

MAORI DAY OFF??.......its more a "We got shafted" day off :laugh: Hopefully my bike will be up to it by then. I need to take it in to get something done to it so it can travel further without having to stop for petrol all the bloody time!

DAY OFF:yes: This is one issue they have my full support on (day off that is) bummer its not a week. Its a shame we don't have a day off to celebrate each and ever culture represented in NZ. Oh how the employers would complain.

Anyone else keen for a ride on the 6th Feb, destination as yet undecided, suggestions welcome.

Think I'll go eat some.....toast.

[elle-f]

yep i am keen - weather though! it's my last free day!

[Pickle]

No-one keen to join us at Herbertville? everything is already organised just bring a tent & food BBQ's are already supplied, pub over the road & great roads to enjoy. Or just come out for the day as there will be motorcyclists there all weekend, arrange a meeting point and come for a ride Best route is out from Pahiatua, Mangatainoka via Makuri/ Pongaroa, Wimbledon
If you want to know about roads out from Dannevirke ask Pickle as he was raised in Dannevirke & knows the area very well.

Cheers Viv

[Lissa]

Hi Viv,
I may be interested in coming down to Herbertville some stage over the weekend, it sound interesting and its a nice ride along the back roads from Napier. I have a few things in the pipeline so won't commit at the mo. Will pm you if I do decide to come along and maybe we could meet up ? I don't know anyone that will be there.

[skelstar]

Hey Pickle, is the road out to Herbertville sealed then? Also, the roads from Alfredton-Pongaroa-Wimbleton are sealed? Cheers!

[yungatart]

Oh quick note.... I went up the takas for the first time tonight... thanks ronin and kinje :love: Good idea for my birthday. Although the road was shat... I made it up!!! Yay.

Well done, girl! Try doing it in the dark, rain, cold and wind next time... nah, second thoughts, maybe not!!

[Alice]

Well done Lissa, you did the harder side, down the Welletown side will be a breeze for you now.
What better way to spend your birthday than going riding.

[Lissa]

Thanks guys.. pretty proud of myself. And wished elle was there too.. I did txt and we called in for a coffee but you werent there!!! :(

[yungatart]

i was shouting people out for dinner

And why weren't we invited, hmm??
Poor Mstrs, has to cook and clean for me every night - he's looking right haggard you know, and could have done with a night off:yes:

[Alice]

And why weren't we invited, hmm??

I can vouch for that, when I visited you on Sunday after the ride to Lake Tutira I thought to myself, Gosh ...isn't Mstrs looking haggard,
worked to the bone, womans work never done...

must be why he got off the bike at the Lake and spread himself on the ground, that, and the 32 degree heat. Had to get his energy back to put out again, ...yes I've heard him mumbling.

[elle-f]

Thanks Lissa for today - that was AWESOME fun! We ROCK dammit!

MSTRS couldn't look haggard if he tried:gob:

[Alice]

[Alice]

Anyone else ?

[apteryx_haasti]

Let me check whether I am on call (fire brigade - this morning we put out the remainder of a beach bonfire - fun way to start the day!).

I don't think I'm on call (new roster, can't quite remember) so I'm in if I am not.

*counts on fingers with tounge poking out*

[Alice]

woohoo, maybe we can hatch something.
I have just told the powers that be at work that I will be missing on Monday 15th.
Will prob be in Wgtn and ride back over Takas Tues morning if a ride in the Waiarapa is favourable to whoever is interested.

[MSTRS]

Some of them do....dirty buggers find dressing up in girlie 'theads' is just too much for them:devil2:

You mean the 5th dont you?

The 6th is Waitangi day, I now have the 5th off also but thought the 6th would be the day to meet for a ride, it should suit others better being a public holiday.

So if it suits you lot then make it the 6th, suggestions for a meeting place and time in Rapa somewhere from you locals ? and where would you like to ride to, cafe / pub lunch stop would be good ! I have not been out to Lake Ferry for a few years, ......there are some good eating places Martinborough.

[Alice]

yeah, but Mstrs isn't a rapa boy/girl!!!
Anyone want to do lunch again - Dannevirke? I'm bored and need to get out more.....

I hear from a certain person you are enjoying my "Long Way Round" DVD.

Another beaut day in the Bay hu, its gorgeous outside, lovely pedalling into work this morning.

I am off to specialist soon, maybe I'll get some good news:yes:

Yep, got some more reading for yu, Burt Monroes "One Good Run" its pretty funny in places, and a extreme mountain bike DVD, you will be impressed at what these guys can do, its filmed in differant locations around NZ both North and South with local and top international riders. Some stunning scenery. Will get them to you over the weekend.

Fingers crossed for you regarding some good news on those nasty breaks.

[elle-f]

YAY! it's a beautiful day and i am heading to Welly. Leaving at about 8.20 this morning and cannot wait! I know the road isnt that good but i am meeting a mate in Courtney Place for a coffee - a great reason for a run over that stunner of a hill. Hope to see somebody at the top!

[Trudes]

You're an early bird too aye Elle! Have a good and safe trip over doll.

[elle-f]

Yeah i never used to be though! I am dogsitting this bloody dog who sleeps in at his own house BUT because of my little bItch of a thing waking him up - he gets up at 5.30 here!

And they are both outside barking at whatever is flying by!

I will have a safe one - you too wherever you head to today. It's too stunning to stay inside.

Btw - you are an earlybird too!

[Trudes]

Ah crap aye, if it's not bloody kids its animals!!!
Yeah, apart from being fucked in the head and only wanting to sleep in on the mornings I can't, I'm excited because my final bit of bling went on my bike yesterday and I can't wait to collect it from TSS today, then it's :done: (well, until I see something else that I really "need"!)

[elle-f]

What's wrong with yer bike? I thought that thing was in tip-top shape. I think maybe you need to look at a Radian with a custom shield!

[Trudes]

Yeah man, I want one of them HOT custom shields!!!:Punk:
Nothing wrong with my baby, Nige's handlebars finally arrived from Mars, so the ones he had on his bike went onto mine and I got some groovy new grips and bar ends put on too. (Just bling, although the bars should cut down on vibrations and are wider too so should be more comfortable).
Weather's starting to look shitty over here too, so take it easy ok.

[Trudes]

Ok, any of you ladies keen for a ride over the next few days (weather permitting of course!)?
Half way through hatching a ride for tomorrow, leaving Caltex Kaiwharawhara at 10am ish, out to Lake Ferry for lunch (possibly). Anyone want to join us is welcome to meet us at the Caltex or any points in between.

Otherwise I was thinking of going for a little tootle on Monday (will be alone or with anyone who wants to join me), not sure where to or what time, but probably be over the hill somewhere, so let me know if you wanna join me.

Chairs (and tables).

[elle-f]

MrsK - its meant to be beautiful over here today- a little bit of wind. Lemme know if you are heading this way.

[biggles1]

Went up the hill yesterday to see who was around and saw 2 bikes only. Where is all the Welly Riders who usually swarm over the hill most find weekends. I am going for a ride over the Rapa today hope to more activity on the hill today,please???????????:gob:

[elle-f]

I was up there twice.......first time at about 9am and then at about maybe 2pm. It was dead quiet as well.

Where are you heading off to?

[biggles1]

Not quite sure yet may do a round the lake ride then back up to Gladstone via the back road. Should have better idea when I hear back from a couple of fellow riders a bit latter,say around 9.00 I'll pm you if you like and we could meet up??

[elle-f]

If ya PM Mrskendog that would be awesome because she is looking at coming over. and that would be cool if ya PM me too :)

[Trudes]

Yep, you're most welcome to join us, just meet us down at Caltex Kaiwharawhara at 10am if you want to come with us.
Elle, thanks for the weather report, do you still want me to txt you at Featherston or do you wanna meet us there or at the top of the hill or something?

[apteryx_haasti]

Hey Guys,

I have a guest staying today - but I might be up for something tomorrow if it's not too windy...

I'll keep an eye on the thread - have a great ride today!

A_H

[Pickle]

Hi Guys just got back from Herbertville, weather was great Friday & Saturday although wind got up last night. BBQ both nights, cocktail hour Friday night was great followed by movies on big screen, Sat night movies were good too especially as the surround sound got sorted - this is all in the campground under the stars.
Ladies who turned up were Viv, Mrs Skunk, Linda (Loopy),Jules on VFR400 2 up, Rachel on her GN250 last night complete with great big L plate, Mrs Skunk's sister Cilla lots of others with kids. Much partying was had by all who turned - accomadation ranged from tents, cabins, vans & bus.
We could all see the comet very clearly as well
For those who asked about the roads they are all sealed to Herbertville from Dannevirke or Waipukurau if you stick to the main road.

Maybe next time

[Crasherfromwayback]

Oi you.....haven't seen you for a while....got some bikes I want you to ride!
Hope you're both well....

Good day today guys... thanks Trudi :) I hope you guys got back ok over the hill! :sunny: Nice to meet you guys Adrian, Mark and Biggles!

BTW guys.. my baffle (?) end of my exhaust fell off between Martinborough and Gladstone pub... she sounds alot different!

It was a good day, at least to start with.

I have got home. Trudi is staying with Elle, Mark and Biggles are waiting for the road to open.

Have a look here (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=42562) for a report of my interesting ride home.

[apteryx_haasti]

Careful - apparently the crash on the takas involves cleaning up the load of SOAP POWDER that the truck-trailer was carrying. As well as oil/diesel.

Please be careful, everyone!

[biggles1]

Thanks guys for a really neat day. Mark and I got back over after 10.30 last night. Boy was I ever glad to be home the hill is real scary in the pitch dark I don't think I'll make a habit of riding it at night was it was cool to know that there were no fuck wit cages coming the other way though.:Punk:

[shandi]

Im glad to know you guys made it back okay, this is one time Im glad I didnt go for a ride with ya!

[Trudes]

Yep good jaunt yesterday, nice to meet you guys and glad the gals had fun too! Glad you guys made it home safe and sound.
Bloody glad I stayed at Elle's last night and came home this morning!!!! (thanks hon!) Geeze, I'm just glad all round!:sunny:
Oh BTW, I think I have to move the the Rapa, the weather is awesome over there!

[Alice]

I think bragging rites for the weekend riding has to go Hawkes Bay.

Saturday avo, rode down to Karaka Beach, lovely windy road all the way. Traffic miminal. Stopped at the beach for awhile, one of the guys went for a swim then back to the Patogata Pub for a beer and food.

Sunday rode to Wairoa and back with 2 other riders. That road is so much fun, will be heading up and back again soon. Compulsary pie on the banks of the Wairoa river from the famous pie shop, well actually the only pie shop. Once again miminal traffic, a little heavier on the way back but that sorta added to the fun blasting past them. The roads in good condition, looked a bit shiny in places but did not feel slippery. Passed some guy on a motorbike, looked like he must be on a world tour he had so much gear loaded onto his bike. Stopped for a beer on the waterfront after returning to the Bay and a couple rideing to Hamilton from Christchurch came over for a chat. Its cool how other riders come over and start up a conversation.

Friday got to see the comet, looked pretty good. If you have not seen it check it out, its visible till early Feb, next chance to see it, apparently 1000years ! Harr har....

Oh yer, the weather was lovely, hot and sunny all weekend.

[elle-f]

Well, bar the frustration of the hill being closed for some and sadness for the families involved in the tragedy - the day was awesome!

We (Lissa and I) met the Kendawgs, Adrian (forgot log in name) and we waited for Biggles and OOPS! the guy on the awesome bike! *Forgot name BUT i would recognise you if i saw you again!* and waited and waited and it seemed a LONG time BUT twas probably only about 5 minutes and we decided that since they knew where we were heading we would head to Lake Ferry around Lake Wairarapa.....

We set off and the ride was absolutely beautiful and i even enjoyed the 45% angle of the bike on the first set of straights! We then turned towards Lake Ferry and the wind dropped and the ride was stunning. We got to Lake Ferry and Biggles and his matey were there already! We had kai and a korero and then left for the Gladdy. At this stage the Wellingtonians were gonna head there and then turn and go back BUT.....

Nooooooo........Some of us stopped for petrol in Martinborough, which was surprisingly empty looking, and we were then told about the Taka's being closed so......we rode to the Gladstone......and missed meeting the first lot at the turn-off only to find that we went another way anyhow and our first little incident was that bloody sheep who thought running alongside me and cutting in was cool - thank GOD for horns on bikes.......and the second incident were the cows :laugh: Ask MrsK about them - it was the funniest thing i have seen in a long time!

Then at the Gladdy the Kendogs and Adrian decided to head off to Welly via the Pahiatua track and headed out after about 30 mins and i got a call about 10 mins later to say the guys had gone and to pick MrsK up - which i happily did ONLY to find her ignoring me and she was chatting up that gorgeous hunk of a Mobil worker *blinks*......

We were still waiting for news about the Taka's and finally a decision was made that it would open at 5pm, no 8pm no 10pm.........twas going on and on! We went to Salute to meet with Biggles etc and had dinner there - compliments to that gorgeous German chef there.....*Thinking i might ask him out*......*Hair twirls*.....

and i heard the hill opened at about 10pm........I also heard the weather in Welly wasn't that flash.....Twas lovely over here yesterday and today too.

Anyhow, I had about the best riding day ever. Riding with people who are better riders than me just makes me push myself a little bit further and quiz them about things that i notice. Nobody made me feel as though i was asking stupid questions and the great thing was that i could practise whilst riding. Thanks guys, It was an excellent day - for me anyhow! It was made better by the fact that nobody stole my custom shield. I could see there were some jealous stares *blinks*

[Trudes]

and the second incident were the cows :laugh: Ask MrsK about them - it was the funniest thing i have seen in a long time!

It's all lies I tell you!

Well I had fun too, should do it again sometime ... and I hope trudi got some painting done.

btw I think the
OOPS! the guy on the awesome bike!was Mark.

Anywhoo.... brill weather today, but didnt do any riding. And Good Going Alice!

[elle-f]

MARK!! That's it! sorry :innocent:

MrsK - HAHAHA.........HA HA HA.........Those cows *teary*

Lissa, yep, you were included in that last statement as well chicky! I thoroughly enjoy heading out with you too. In fact, if you weren't in the Wairarapa I would still probably be puttering around by myself!

[Lissa]

thanks elle... its good to have another chick to ride with! We rock! :yes:



The 6th is Waitangi day, I now have the 5th off also but thought the 6th would be the day to meet for a ride, it should suit others better being a public holiday.

Ok.. so far.... Sniper is coming over on that weekend. Going to take him to Martinbrough on Sat 3rd if he gets a bike... hopefully get some other rapa/welly people to come along.

Then 6th... we should come up with a time and place to meet in the rapa.. prob Featherston. Really enjoyed the ride around Lake Ferry so maybe we should do that, and stop in Martinbrough for lunch or something.. just a suggestion. :) Whos in then?

[Trudes]

Yep, count me in.

[elle-f]

Yep I am in for the 6th. It's my last day of freedom soooooooo i guess i better get everything sorted before then huh!

Alice - are you still thinking of heading down this way?

[Trudes]

Yeah, we'd be keen to meet Sniper, what days is he here Mel?
We have a trackday on the Saturday, unless of course you're coming through to that? (Come be my pit biarch if you like, I'll shout you a Sprite).

[Alice]

Yep, I'm still intending to head to Welly on the 5th so meeting for a ride on the 6th would be good then I'll head back to the Bay.

He arrives on the 2nd and leaves for taupo on the 4th... so the 3rd is the only day we can meet him.. all depends on if he can get a bike. Umm will let you know about being at the trackday.

[Sniper]

Tell you what. Im back in Masterton on the 6th or so. Im happy to go out for a beer/ coffee/ ride with anyone who wants to meet me on the evening of the 6th too?

[Alice]

I'm still keen, will leave the organising up to you locals, a morning ride would suit me best.
I will watch this space to see what you come up with.

[Trudes]

Oh, I'm with you Mel, I like things to be planned in advance, but as I'm opting out of any planning for this, it doesn't bother me too much.
I'd love to help more, but working 10-11 hours a day atm and none of those hours with computer access, so I'm out for organising crap, sorry, but still keen on a ride with the gals!!! oh, can someone PM Sallo and Shinx and make sure they know whatever is planned, thanx! In fact if whoever is organising wants a list of the local chics who may be keen to join us, just let me know.

[Lissa]

Ok.. I'll organise it I suppose. :)

Thought I would just start a thread up and let anyone turn up... is it restricted to girls only?

Quite liked our trip to lake ferry, so maybe we could do that again, lunch there and then on to Martinborough for coffee?

Hmm might go for a ride this saturday somewhere... got my new baffle, but she still sounds grunter for some reason.:Punk:

[biggles1]

Mel
Seeing as how I have pulled out of the ride on the 6 Feburary I'd be keen to do a ride tomorrow(Saturday) if you're up for it send me a pm and I'll if I can get Mark and anyone else as well.

Is there still some water in that river?

Have a great holiday.

[magicfairy]

Is there still some water in that river?



I've been wondering that myself. Some friends down south organised it about 10 months ago and they assure me there is. Or it's going to be a pretty dull trip. Actually given the boat can only do about 8km hour, won't be exactly thrilling. I guess we will have to lie around / drink / watch movies / play playstation / sit in the jacuzzi for the whole week. What a shame.

[Panther]

is there gonna be another ride??
camp mothers can you please organise something?

what about taking advantage of daylight savings and doing something during the week??

ha ha ha to all those without tinted visors if we are riding into the sun:sunny:

[Lissa]

Ok then:

Lets organise another ride over to the Wairarapa...this time WE WILL make it!! :angry:

Post any dates that you think would be good, then I will start another thread up.

ummm during the week the Wairarapa people have our Wed Night Ride... sometimes meeting up with the Welly People at the top of the takas.

[Panther]

So what are you saying?
wed yes or no?
this week (starting sun 11th) or the following week (sun 18th)
or does it have to be a month away so everyone can come?

I'll wait and see what all the other 'Camp Mothers' say.... like trudes, elle and Alice.

The Wairarapa ride will be on a weekend, so everyone can come, guys and girls... just have to work out which weekend.

Its hard to organise a ride during the week... so will just leave it as it is, with the Wed Night Rides that are posted in Meetings and Events. The Wairarapa Crew might even ride over to the duck pond one night.

[Panther]

poo will i ever find a biking buddy?

the next while is looking hellish ....

Friday 16th .. hypno show at petone club (If you want tickets i can sell them to ya .. is a fundraiser for a staff member with terminal cancer $20 a head)
Round the bays walk next weekend (Sunday 18th I think)
Ride for life to Napier 24 Feb and ride home 25 feb

Am happy to look at all dates and reconsider my hell schedule :)

Now I got my bike back from the shop :scooter:

[Trudes]

I can't make week night rides as I work til 6:30, and most of my weekends seem to be fairly busy atm, but hey, I don't mind missing s few things! Is Easter too far away to organise a ride for? Or should we just make it like the 17th of Feb or something?

[elle-f]

I am free at Easter but not next Sunday as its the Round the Bays for me and the kiddies in class........did the Relay for Life yesterday for 20 bloody hours and OMFG i cant walk or even contemplate getting on my bike HAHA

We did ok and did over 100 laps of the bloody thing.........had a laugh as well although - thank god jens came over at 7am because none of us could walk any longer and he was good for 10 laps!

Next year.........bikies get a gang together and go for it i reckon!

[Alice]

Anyone want to head down South end of Febish/early March? I want to do a trip, - down the Kaikoura Coast, Chch, Arthurs Pass, down the West Coast, Wanaka, Queenstown, back thru the Mackenzie country, Mt Cook, Chch, could shoot through to Nelson on the way back via Hamner Springs then home. I am finding it challenging to find some others to do the trip with, cause I have only been riding a short time I am still trying to t up with other riders. Happy to head off on my own but its always more fun to go with others. Ideally a group of 3 - 5.

[Trudes]

Would love to Alice, but the list of excuses is long and quite boring.:zzzz:

I guess its the sorta trip that most people need a bit more time to plan get outa work commitments etc.

You're just a wee bit early for us Alice... Bex (Mrs CB) and I will be doing Welly to Christchurch during the Easter School Hols. Otherwise we'll ride from Upper Hutt to the ferry terminal in Wellington with you if you like! :scooter:

Cool, will let you know, still have not finalised dates, will have to get my shite together soon. If I go by myself I will only book ferry one way so I can be flexible with the return date. I'm planning to stay in backpackers, cheap accomadation and usually pretty good.

Was good to see you elle on Sat night... looked like fun. Yep I think we bikies should do it.. like I said, I dont mind walking around in my helmet and boots!

[elle-f]

I can't do it Alice because of work commitments BUT if you need a place to stay - you are more than welcome here

Lissa - you and Kinje ROCKED!

[Alice]

Thanks Elle, will keep that in mind but will probably ride straight to Welly and cross the ditch on the same day, not sure on the return, depends from where I have come from that morning.

[Lissa]

Got some dates if you guys/girlies are interested in doing the Wairarapa Ride again....

Theres the , 10th March or 24th March. Just an idea.. let me know what you girls think.

Arrrr I forgot about that....I'm doing that as well. Ok 24th is out then. :)

[Trudes]

The 10th is Col's / Quasi's gear afternoon thingy, so we could possibly do a ride in the morning and then all ride to that.

Thats an idea... I need to buy a back protector from Quasi, so will be a good chance.

[Trudes]

See, now I'm not so sure that was a good idea of mine there, that post was number 666 for me...... doh doh doh doh (That's meant to be a spooky type of sound effect) Something bad may happen!!!

[elle-f]

After this sunday - any week is good for me. I am keen to ride with those 100 bikers for the Cancer relay. Lissa if you are gonna go can you let me know so we can go in and register at your favourite shop. I am also keen to go to the Quazi show as i too want a back protector

[Nasty]

A ride before the Quasi show sounds good ....

Hey Mrs KD - are you subliminally trying to tell us something about your relationship to the dark side....because if I remember correctly...you also had post number 666 in this thread....

Spooky....

I like the idea of the ride to the bike gear show. I think I'm on call that weekend, but someone owes me a day, so might be able to make it!

[Trudes]

That is spooky!
So shall we arrange a chic ride for the 10th that will end at the Col and Quasi show? That way all us chicks can arrive on mass and hopefully scare the boys into making way for chicks on a mission to buy tons of bike gear and test ride some cool bikes! (Most men know how most women love to spend money on clothes and window shop).

[bert_is_evil]

curses, I have softball on Saturday avo's. might try and catch up with you guys after if I have a 1pm game tho.

[Lissa]

Ok so to clarify... we are going to ride over the wairarapa on the 10th march.. maybe around lake ferry in the morning, then head to Quasi's show in the afternoon?

Is it open to just chicks or guys as well? Will have to start a thread about it soonish.

Yep elle... let me know when you can come to masterton and I will sign up with you at Dave Andersons for the 100 riders. :)

I think the boys have organised their own ride, so how about we do this as a chicks ride (we ride with them enough really, don't you think!?), and arrange to meet any of the guys that can't do without us for longer than a couple of hours (ie. My hubby), somewhere later on?

[Lissa]

Ok... so where shall we go? And what time do we want to get to waikanae? (btw I used to live in Waikanae, look out for crazy OLD people, theres lots of them driving cars!)

[Trudes]

Round the Rapa somewheres is fine, or meet Featherston, back over the hill, over the Piecock hill and hit Waikanae around 4-4:30ish? What you gals think? Could make it an afternoon ride, meet at 3ish top of hill? (of course I'll come over and meet you rapa gals somewheres for coffee etc as I am almost cool enough to be a rapa girl, apparently!:dodge:

[apteryx_haasti]

...as I am almost cool enough to be a rapa girl, apparently!:dodge:

WOW! You must be cool, then! Can I hang out with you and absorb some of your collness by proxy?

(Lesson 1 - cool people don't use words like "proxy")

[Trudes]

Sure anytime, but lets clarify firstly, is proxy standing next to me and looking cool, or is it me rubbing myself all over you? (ok, that actually sounds a lot worse than I thought:shutup: , I was meaning as in "rubbing off on you") Anyway........

[skelstar]

:corn:




...happy valentines day to meeeeee

[Wasp]

and me.......

happy v'day skellytor...... how sad is this... :(

As I said in the bling award - no offence Mrs KD but BLEARGH!

Although looks like you made those guys' night...
:stupid:

[Lissa]

WASP forgot to say Happy Valentines Day to you on the ride tonight ;) hope that makes you feel better. Ignore Skel.... he gets off stalking the girly threads. :D

Umm what time is the quasi show thingy in Waikanae Trudes? Seeing as you are now offically a rapa chick, we would be delighted to be seen having a coffee with you ... and ap&#*(Ha*#&$* ....cor as long as I dont have to pronounce your name!!

[Trudes]

LoL, I think it kicks off at about 4pm, but we should really be a bit fashionably late don't you think, make an entrance as us girls all rumble up on our beasts (:lol: more like:scooter: , and that was BEASTS boys, not breasts)

[skelstar]

...I'm familiar with Women being referred to as 'beasts' thank you Trudi. :mellow:

Ok been thinking about this ride:

This is my suggestion: CHICKS RIDE FOR COFFEE AND SHOPPING AT QUASI'S SHOW 10TH MARCH

Me and elle meet any Welly Chicks up the hill at 1.30pm, ride down to Lady Featherston Cafe in Featherston (which has a nice backyard setup) have a coffee and a natter, then leave about 2.30pm to Waikanae, stopping at numerous places on the way like the Paek Hill. Arrive on our beasts, (am bringing my breasts they seem to go everywhere with me) at Quasi's show in Waikanae about 4.30pmish.

If this plan is ok with you girls then I will put it in the meeting and events forum. Also I might need to pm some of the girls. :sunny:

[Trudes]

Sounds perfect chook, I reckon it's a done deal. PM me and let me know who you're PMing and I'll PM a few as well, ok!

[Lissa]

OK cool then.. will put it in the forum, Umm just give me a bit, got to go back over our thread to see who went on the last chick ride. :)

[Trudes]

You want me to PM you a list? Actually you probably have more time to organise this kind of crap, so I'll just PM you a list ok.
Edit: Done

[ceebie13]

Ignore Skel.... he gets off stalking the girly threads. :D

Me too...

OUCH! Bex has just hit me!....

Stop sending PMS to girls. They get all Attila-the-Hun styles by themselves without you adding to the load.

[Lissa]

Hey Lissa - what ya doing on Saturday? Kinje as well? Specifically probably about 10am for a couple of hours?
Nothing at this stage....kinje is away this weekend. What do you have in mind?

Hopefully its not painting your house or anything :D

Edit/ Anyway if you are coming into masterton maybe we could reg for the ride for life.

[elle-f]

OMG whats our matey kinje doing away? He didn't post it in here and ask permission!

10.30 my place then off to Welly then to harrass the kendogs?! Think it sounds a stunner of an idea!

[James Deuce]

OMG whats our matey kinje doing away? !

He's starting to sound more like your gimp than your mate!

[Kendog]

OMG whats our matey kinje doing away? He didn't post it in here and ask permission!

And we are going to meet up with Ceebie13 and Bex on our ride back over the hill with you in the arvo.

Weather is pretty good here, bit of cloud and wind but not bad.

[Lissa]

He's starting to sound more like your gimp than your mate!Nooooo kinje is a biker chick.... and he pretty cool!! :D He went down south to do some tramping, lucky bugger.

Its drizzling here :( damnit, will be at your house just after 10am elle.

[Trudes]

"The Gimp" sounds better!

[elle-f]

Gimp, Matey, Pal - its all the same HAHA

Mrs K - COOL! We are heading into Welly at about 10 then i have to register those kids and we will be having a coffee and avoiding traffic!

We will text you when we are done - best you get out there now and organize yourself dammit :)

[Lissa]

Sorry we didnt end up going for a ride trudes... next time aye! What a brill day, stayed at the top of the Rimutakas for about an hour chatting... was nice. Although I have to say I HATE riding in Wellington.... infact I got a little lost on the way home :shutup: Thanks elle.

[Trudes]

Yeah sorry about that guys, but domestic shit had to be done today while certain shops were open etc.
I heard something about a couple of Quote "slappers" end quote at the top of the hill today!!:dodge:
Lol, glad you had a great ride guys, maybe next weekend will fit into our busy social lives!:bye:

[Lissa]

Hmmm didnt see any 'slappers' on the hill today... must have missed them, just me and elle .. and a whole lot of guys milling around... :p Unless you mean me... then HELL YEAH!!

Although this is prob for an entirely different thread but I was at the top of the hill today for about half an hour while I waited for 'elle and those kendog people (whom never showed up) and I find it really amusing.... you have guys turning up on these big huge bikes, they park up, stand around a bit, gawk at each others bikes, have a natter.... I thought girls were bad. Infact was rather peeved off that none of them took any notice of my super cool flamed GN!! Whats the matter with these guys?

Then you have the guys turning up and doing wheelies and skids on their bikes...show offs, didnt even take a bow when they did it... going to learn to do wheelies on the hill... thats my next practice thingymebob.

I actually love being on top of the hill and watching all the bikes park up or ride past... very very envious.. cant wait to trade up. And it was a beautiful day today.

[elle-f]

OMG did mrsk just call us slappers? i am too old and overweight to be one of those :laugh: hang on, arent slappers old looking hags in mini skirts? i COULD be one i guess HAHA
