[Keystone19]

RIDE IS ON


Time for a coffee, chat, goss and get to meet new Biker Angels ride.

Saturday February 10th, departing from out west, meet 1030, depart 1100am.

PM me or Nicksta for details.

This ride will be relatively short and easy - aimed at all levels of rider.

[mstriumph]

bit far for me to come for a coffee :no: but have a great ride anyway!!


would love to catch up next time we are over, 'though ...........

[Keystone19]

Yeah, a bit far to come for this one! But definitely catch up next time you are over - just let us know when!!

[Cibby]

awww. there we go again, discriminating against those without a bike.. *SIGH*

would love to come but am bike less. Have a great time ladies :)

[Keystone19]

Pillions welcome Rach - either that or just drive up to our coffee spot!

[Lissa]

Damn wish I could go..... next time ride down this way girls! :D

[yungatart]

Bike is sad, I'm in bits, so will have to pass:crybaby:
Have a great time tho!

[Riff Raff]

Will have to let you know closer to the time - will hopefully have had my wrist op by then, but doubt very much if I'll be on bike either way.

[HDTboy]

Sexism, and you had to organise it for while I'm not allowed to ride. :(

[white belt]

:rockon: Sounds great, count me in.:scooter:

[Keystone19]

Hope the op goes well Sue.

Come along in the cage if you can't ride - or grab a pillion with someone...:yes:

[Keystone19]

Sexism, and you had to organise it for while I'm not allowed to ride. :(

Do you feel left out doll?

Let me help you with that next time I see you...:devil2:

[Nicksta]

[Scorpygirl]

I might be there. Depends on how my biking is going by then. Then again could be just the challenge I need at this time.

[Lteejay]

Love to make it if I'm free that day - hopefully see you all there. Meeting point, where out west?

Edit: Also would give Crashe's trio a chance to meet :)

[Keystone19]

Will be meeting at Shell Westgate.

[Kittyhawk]

Going to take a bit of a break for a while from riding but would love to meet up and have a coffee. Can bring the camera and try get some action shots at certian points. As I'll take my car.

Great idea! Be good to get some photos. I'll PM you the details for the ride and the lunch stop.

Why the break from biking though?

[Nicksta]

shaping up to be a good day ladies!
it will be a nice easy pace and nice roads for your Scorpygirl... (I rode some of them my first day on my learners)....

[Karma]

*in best girly voice* Can I come?

well then i worry that coffee wont help either.... but then, you are on the right track to recovery.. you got a GSXR!!

[McJim]

I've graciously offered to do anklebiter caring duties that day so will endeavour to send Chickadee along on her RG150.

Aren't I a nice bastard?

McJim - you're a gem - I was hoping Chickadee would be able to make it...:Punk:

[McJim]

Well she did find her way to Whenuapai today so getting to Westgate will be a doddle.

Have a good 'un.

[Karma]

well then i worry that coffee wont help either.... but then, you are on the right track to recovery.. you got a GSXR!!


Well the metro guys seem to be getting all the chicks these days, so figured I could get a latte and some makeup tips :D

[Nicksta]

yay! thanks McJim.... any other boys out there going to let us take their Ladies out for coffee?

[Nicksta]

Well the metro guys seem to be getting all the chicks these days, so figured I could get a latte and some makeup tips :D
Sudeep needs a facial buddy now... drop him a pm.....

[McJim]

Well the metro guys seem to be getting all the chicks these days, so figured I could get a latte and some makeup tips :D

Not good enough just being Metro mate - s'gotta be in conjunction with having a massive knob too apparently...

[Nicksta]

back to the topic at hand.. girly coffee ride...... who's keen????

[KATWYN]

Hi guys

Where do you meet (out West) and ride to?

K

[Nicksta]

PM sent Katwyn....
hope you can make it :)

[MadDuck]

Looks like I can not refuse the offer and all is forgiven (Jill will know what I mean). I dont do coffee though as I will proly start bouncing off the walls.....but a cuppa tea and I am a happy biker

[Nicksta]

awesome!!
of course there will be tea.... and something nice to nibble on too!
see you there...

[DEATH_INC.]

I wonder if you'll get more girl-girls than boy-girls this time :dodge:

[Nicksta]

lol.... i've had a lot of boy-girls asking.....
but this is strictly a girls coffee/tea run... encouraging the angels to coem out on a little ride and to get to know other angels....

[white belt]

I really looking forward to it. Hope all the girls from the Wednesday night will be able to make it and it will be great to meet the other girly bikers as well.:Punk: can't wait

[Nicksta]

yay!!
good to see you on thursday too.. your doing soo well i couldnt catch up!

[Unit]

Will be meeting at Shell Westgate.
Would love to make this trip girls, Ive started an events calandar at home and that day has a space, so will mark it in. The Westgate is only 175kms from here, a doodle (Im used to commuting remember), its a wee way for me to come but would love to support the event, and meet some of you ladies. I'll try to drag a couple of keen chicks from down here along too Ive met recently, give me a nice day and I'll travel all day, finances pending
Great to see you organise this Jill, pm me, looking forward to see the SV again

[QUOTE=Nicksta;911684]awesome!!

What flavour??:msn-wink:

[MadDuck]

I wonder if you'll get more girl-girls than boy-girls this time :dodge:

And i have to ask the question...wtf is a boy-girls? Would I recognise one and would they recognise that they should stay away :scooter:

[Draco]

I dont do coffee though as I will proly start bouncing off the walls.....

Ow, come on now MD, that could be quite entertaining for the rest of us gals :doobey:
Count me in ladies, Death has been sentenced to babysitting duties 4 the day! (err....providing me + the CBR are still in one piece after the trackday :o )

[Nicksta]

YAY Draco!! (thanks Death!! you rock)
oh, and MD... Boy-girls are the boys who want to come and say they will dress like girls for the day.... just PM Weasel and ask!

[KATWYN]

I'm in. Can't wait to ride with the gals

[Minnie]

Hi Ladies , hope you have a great ride, would love to come and meet you all, but just checked calender and see Hubby has fishing comp that day and im on "milking the cows duty" oh well, hopefully it will go so well you will organise another real soon and i can come to that one.:yes:

[Karma]

oh, and MD... Boy-girls are the boys who want to come and say they will dress like girls for the day.... just PM Weasel and ask!


:(

what can I say, hanging around with guys in singlets and stubbies, or chicks in leather.... hmm... tough choice ;)

[DEATH_INC.]

And i have to ask the question...wtf is a boy-girls? Would I recognise one and would they recognise that they should stay away :scooter:
Boy-girls are those (supposed) guys that for some reason HAVE to go on a girls only ride.......

[Nicksta]

lol.. you got it Death!!

and Minnie, hopefully if all goes well we can have another before the summer's out...

[klingon]

lol.. you got it Death!!

and Minnie, hopefully if all goes well we can have another before the summer's out...

I hope we do have another one because I can't make this one :(
I'll be out of town at a conference that day... already skipping the last day of the conf to do the Westpac ride on the Sunday.

Bummer! Was looking forward to coffee with the gals!

[Sis]

Count me in :yes:

[Nicksta]

cool... looks like the angels will be out in force!!

now where's aunty Riff Raff....???

[Shewolf]

Sounds great - I'll be there

[Keystone19]

OK chicks, a couple of things.

Firstly, if you haven't had a pm from Nicksta or I, don't worry - we'll get to ya!

Secondly, are there any girls out there who might be interested in taking a pillion? QkChk, are you coming?

Thirdly, unless there are hurricane force winds and torrential downpours, this ride will go ahead regardless of the weather - although the route may be slightly changed (i.e. straight to cafe, do not pass go, do not collect $200). We will post on this thread on the day to confirm.

Looking forward to it!

[Riff Raff]

now where's aunty Riff Raff....???
I'm right here babe, sitting in front of the computator....

[Nicksta]

I'm right here babe, sitting in front of the computator....

[Nicksta]

[Scorpygirl]

[KATWYN]

Well I sure as heck arent wearing a skirt on my bike.....just to prove t'others
i'm a girly. The skirt thing doesnt cut it anymore. you need to think of something else Disco....

[Riff Raff]

I'll let you know after op on thursday.

[Karma]

The skirt thing doesnt cut it anymore. you need to think of something else Disco....

[Rossi Gal]

Is it gonna be a longer sorta ride or...?? is it worth coming up for? just tring to plan ma weekend :) would be lovely to meet some more of you chickys!

[Keystone19]

Plan is to do a relatively short and easy ride for coffee/luunch and back again and then some of the more experienced riders will probably do some more riding. Would be great to have you along Aria...:yes:

[Stroker Girl]

Hi Gals

Count me in too! :yes:

[Keystone19]

Awesome! This is shaping up to be a great ride!!!

[Nicksta]

that it is.... sweet!

[MadDuck]

A bit like the engine that would or could......... I know I will get a PM about details of the ride.

[Nicksta]

A bit like the engine that would or could......... I know I will get a PM about details of the ride.
on its way.. sorry chick!

[McJim]

Don't want to be teaching my grandma to suck eggs as it were but why don't you post this the events calendar so people can register their attendance and you can easily PM everyone without having to trawl through 6 pages of thread?

That's what we do with the 250 rides (we get a better attendance because ride details are given out by PM not publicly notified! - It pleases those paranoid about police activities.)

[Keystone19]

McJim we originally listed it only in Biker Angels and then had it shifted to meetings and events. Previous attempts at running a girly ride have met with abuse from certain members of the forum and accusations of sexism etc via PM. This time around this has not happened so we are encouraged that people seem to see that a girly ride is not about sexism, but about encouragement and support.

So, yes, I will list it in the events calendar now and we'll see how we go.

[McJim]

Dunno about sexism - just seemed to be a nice idea - the only things I have a problem with are Weasel and Disco Dan dressing up as women.:sick:

The closest I ever got to cross dressing was putting my trousers on while in a bad mood. :rofl:

[Devil]

Previous attempts at running a girly ride have met with abuse from certain members of the forum and accusations of sexism etc via PM.
You've gotta be kidding... Thats pretty lame.

[Joni]

Thats pretty lame.Affirmative... bit it takes all types it seems :rolleyes:

[Qkchk]

Sorry cant make it, got work that Sat. Unless you dont mind a Oversized Forkhoist following you around........mmmm maybe not. I can never fit into any of those car parks. :mellow:

[GMGirl]

I would have been really keen to come to this but unfortunately have other commitments on 10 Feb... do you think this could become a regular event... even once a month or something as my best mate and I would be really keen to attend as it's always cool to ride with other girls (kinda takes the pressure off compared to riding with bat outta hell guys all the time ) and is always great to meet other girls who ride. :rockon:

[Nicksta]

if it works out we will do another one soon ish.... sad you gals cant make it...
cant promise a monthly thing, as Keystone and I have track commitments (and her spriglets) ... but we can look at our calendars and figure out some possible future dates if it goes smooth this time....
PM Keystone19 or myself if you have any questions....

[Keystone19]

OK chicks. We have PMd everyone who has expressed an interest on this thread. If you haven't received a PM from me and would like to come along - flick me a PM and I'll get back to you.

It's gonna be a great ride...:rockon:

I was one of the biggest knockers of any all girly ride last time (not via PM) afterall I would rather watch a blokes ass go flying past me BUT then I thought of Weasel and had a change of mind :yes:

Having now meet a whole lot of blimmin awesome girls that ride bikes (thats girls - normal girls) I can understand why Keystone and Nicksta went this way and applaud them for giving it another go.

I am not about sexism but more against separatism be it 250s vs 600s well you all get it I am sure. Good on you two for doing this given the mockers last time (including moi). See you Saturday and am looking forward to it!

PS: Also DucGirl chewed my damn ear off for my comments.

[Maha]

If i can find a bra?.........can i come..............:dodge:

But but but but...

The only problem I have is that some chicks may see this as the only way they can come out, and that perhaps the guys are too rough (?) so they're afraid to come out. Well I for one am very accomodating to the fairer sex, so don't be afraid to rock on up to any rides and start chatting eh.

Also... I was thinking of running a blokes only ride, but somehow that sausage fest didn't seem quite as appealing as the thought of a dozen hot chicks on bikes :(

[MadDuck]

If i can find a bra?.........can i come..............:dodge:

Nup Mr Maha...aint no bra big enuff for you :Punk:
Luv ya

[crashe]

Poor poor weasel..............


I think MadDuck was talking about your ARSE flying past her...... and that is what caused her to change her mind.......


Never mind Weasel........ you are still a nice wee fella.........

[MadDuck]

Also... I was thinking of running a blokes only ride, but somehow that sausage fest didn't seem quite as appealing as the thought of a dozen hot chicks on bikes :(

Yeah well hold that thought and have ya sausage fest ...the gals are going without you :Punk:

[Maha]

Nup Mr Maha...aint no bra big enuff for you :Punk:
Luv ya

But im a widdle fulla..............oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i see what you mean....:yes:
Big is good....!!!

[MadDuck]

But im a widdle fulla..............oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i see what you mean....:yes:
Big is good....!!!

Hmmmm yep BIG is good if you a girl and need a bra. But a bloke. You may want to reconsider life in general

[Keystone19]

But but but but...

Most of the girls signed up to do this ride all ride with the blokes anyway. There are a couple who haven't but we will hopefully encourage them to join in other rides when they are more confident.

I remember my first KB ride - I was so nervous! But everyone was very welcoming and it was a lot of fun - it's just getting along for the first time that takes a lot of guts. When you don't know anyone it can sometimes be easier to come along with some people you know will be thinking along the same lines as you are.

[petermonkeyguru]

If I talk about chic stuff can I come?
bikes and birds whaorrrrr

[Nicksta]

why??......

[aff-man]

have fun ladies...

better see some wheelie pics jill, there ahould always be one residant clown in attendance.

[Draco]

Even as the number of chicky riders increases all the time, we're still an unusual bunch and still a minority in nz. Hopefully the sight of a big group of gals on bikes will also encourage other women to take up riding. When I started I came from the country (which is still a couple of decades behind the city) and I was always THE only chick out riding. I have met so many women who say they have always wanted to ride a bike but never thought that gals actually did it, or that they themself could. I see a girls ride as being no different than having a couples ride to encourage couples in sharing in this awesome sport/hobby, or a learners ride to encourage learners to get out there and give it a go! I'm wrapped to see that this time this ride has not been bagged. Cheers to Jill and Niksta for organising it!

As Jill said I too will be encouraging ALL (guys & gals) riders to join general kb rides. How the hell else are we gunna outnumber these cagers :rockon:

[_Gina_]

I will be coming along for this one, have just managed to organise cover for the 'kids' watch! (thanks Stify :love: )


See you all there! :scooter:

[aff-man]

we're still an unusual bunch :

Just, my bike kind of stopped yesterday >< (crbs, we think...)
So if there is another one at any time in the future, I would be very keen!

[Lteejay]

See all you girls tomorrow - lookin forward to it

[Scorpygirl]

Yes, I am looking forward to it too. :yes: Though I must admit to being a little nervous being such a novice rider and all. I may be a tad slow to start with so please bear with me. :scooter: :scooter: If this goes well then I will be joining others rides too. See you all tomorrow.

[Keystone19]

That's too bad Hanne, would have been good to have you along.

Alrighty, well the forecast is looking ok, although we could have some showers. I will post in the morning if we are still going. As I said in an earlier post, it will have to be torrential downpours and Hurricane winds to stop us. We will be riding according to the conditions what ever they may be so fear not girls - you will be safe with me...:yes:

So, check your tyre pressures, make sure you've got gas and we'll see you all tomorrow at 1030!

[Karma]

And you're going to eat it?


It's not the kind of breakfast you eat, it's the kind you just swallow :sick:

[Quasievil]

you will be safe with me...:yes:

Yes boss I will remind her......

Now I need someone to remind me that I have to remind chickadee..... :whistle:

[white belt]

Great ride. Thanks Keystone19 and Nicksta for organising it. Well the bit that I did was great.

Sorry, I somehow got lost looking for Haldanes. I went up and down EP Higway and then stopped at another bike shop near the roundabout and they told me that they had moved to East Tamaki???

Went for a nice ride through to Botany and back again, passed Kittyhawk on the way back.

It was getting a bit late and I needed to get home to organise myself for my 40km horse race tomorrow.

Hope everyone had fun, angry with myself for getting lost and see everyone at the next one.

[Chickadee]

Hey girls,

Great day, nice to see so many Angels out today, shows you how many of us there are (22 approx turnout).

Great ride, great company, great weather... what more can I say.

Hope there's another ride planned this year! Nice to see you all and meet new faces. Thanks Keystone19 & Nicksta for a well planned enjoyable run.

Ride safe ladies

[Keystone19]

Well done everyone! What a fantastic day - I have literally just got home!

We all met at Westgate at 1030 and by 1100 we were on the road - I think there were 22 or 23 bikes! Nearly all were sportsbikes and I think 3 cruisers!

We headed to Muriwai and you should have seen the faces of the cafe staff as we headed down the hill and pulled into the parking space outside the cafe. First of all it was kind of OMG look at all those bikes, then it was OMG, they're all chicks, come and look at this!

After coffee and a chat (and breakfast for some!) we headed north up 16 to Helensville, through there and right onto Peak Rd - Madduck headed up 16 and a couple of others headed off as well. Back through Peak Road and Old North Rd, a quick regroup before heading down the motorway to Haldanes where cold drinks awaited us. We had a bit of a look through the new shop (very, very nice..), a few items of clothing were tried on and then it was off again. A couple more riders headed off home from Haldanes until there was only four of us left. Me, Girlygirl, Draco and StrokerGirl headed down to Kaiuaua. A quick trip through the GP saw us grab fish and chips for tea and then back to Clevedon and home. We had two drops of rain all day!!!

Fantastic effort from all the girls today - stand out riders to me were Lteejay and Chickadee looking very smooth and Kittyhawk looking very comfortable on her new GSXR.

Sorry we lost you heading to Haldanes White Belt - sounds like you must have turned left off the motorway not right. My bad..

Great to catch up with Madduck and MVSenna. Also neat to meet a whole bunch of new girls as well.

Some piccies below.

Looking forward to the next one - and I will follow up on the topic I mentioned at lunchtime and keep you all posted.

Well, what a brilliant day I had!

Started out with a big breakfast - coffee, bacon, eggs, tomato's, toast, baked beans and apple juice. (thanks Ben, you rock!)

Headed up to Westgate to meet, then off out to Muriwai for lunch.

From Muriwai we shot up to Hellensville, then off out Peak Rd, then onto Old North Rd back to Kumeu.

Having never been on Peak Rd/Old North Rd on a bike before, I must say what a nice road you Nor' Westerners have, what a god damn bitch that the ginga doesn't have a life.

Jill had organised a visit to Haldanes to check out girly leathers, so off we went, then Jill, Draco, StrokerGirl and I shot off to do the Kaiawa GP, picking up an Affdude on the way (as you do ;) ) and an Old Guy at Kaiawa.

Go Jill and the wheelie practise (I am not worthy!)

Special thanks from me to Jen (Draco) who made my day by giving me some constructive feedback, telling me what I needed to change and then offering to let me follow, watch and emulate.

I am now climbing off the bike in the twisties - on average half an arse cheek! And what a difference it makes! As I said "I get it now". [When the corner tightens up, just slide off the bike and pull it over further]

Thanks to Keystone and Nicksta who organised a perfect girly coffee run, no incidents at all, what seemed to me to be almost 30 happy girly bikers - (oh and we can't forget Shane now can we!)

See you all at the next one!

Gg

Oh and special thanks to Stify who was on kid duty, :love: you long time, big boyee.

[Draco]

What a wicked day! Thanx to Keystone and Niksta for organising it. Thanx to the chickies who were pointers. Thanx to ALL you ladies for the awesome company. Thanx to the weather god, she turned out the :sunny: for us. Who'd have thought so many gorgeous girls in leather could scare the natives :gob: there were plenty of jaws dropping at Muriwai :devil2: I'm sure i'm not the only one keen for another.

[oldguy]

Sounds like you all had fun, well done to the organizers of this ride
Seems like some got lost, or they needed more than a coffee, I ran into this lot out Kaiaua, was nice to chat with you all, and ride back to Clevedon, hope the rain held off

cheers John

Chicky you are most welcome! As Jill can attest, to see that ear-to-ear grin when we stopped at Clevedon was thanx enough. Girl your gunna be kickin my ass by next week! Your a natural!

[Keystone19]

Go Jill and the wheelie practise (I am not worthy!)



Hehe, pratice, practice, practice - by the time I got home tonight I was actually managing to hold them up for longer without freaking out!

[Keystone19]

Yep, that grin was absolutely priceless!

[Keystone19]

It was getting a bit late and I needed to get home to organise myself for my 40km horse race tomorrow.



Wow! Good luck with that!

[McJim]

Well Chickadee came home with a big grin on her face so you lassies can feel free to arrange another ride like that in the future and I'll do Kiddie minding duty for the Mini McJims again.

If anyone gives you stick about it being sexist tell 'em to get a life. I think it was a fantastic environment for Chickadee to get some support and advice. And Keystone19 - your comments re her riding - yep - Chickadee is actually a better rider than me (despite the fact that she's done 2,000 km and I've done 15,000km!) - I know it and admit it!

Good photies!

[Draco]

Well Chickadee came home with a big grin on her face so you lassies can feel free to arrange another ride like that in the future

I think she's one of about 22 chickies smiling 2nite :D

[aff-man]

went, then Jill, Draco, StrokerGirl and I shot off to do the Kaiawa GP, picking up an Affdude on the way (as you do ;) ) and an Old Guy at Kaiawa.

Well I did shave me legs and all... Riding is coming along nicely, and man that grin ya had at clevedon was amusing, kinda like the first time I did a wheelie.

Cheers oldguy for doing some taping. Would be interested to see how it came out..

[KATWYN]

Well I really enjoyed the ride with all the gals today, there were some great bikes too.

I don't often go on group rides, but to any of you chickies out there
that are thinking about it.....DO IT.

Thank you Keystone and Nickstar for an enjoyable ride.

It was also great to finally put faces to all the names.

Cheers
Katie

[Nicksta]

[crashe]

What a day... it was awesome.....

We all rode well in a pack.......
Nice to see 'my girls' all together on the day (Lteejay, Blondini and Scorpygirl)
and seeing how much their riding has improved... I think Chickadee kinda popped herself in that wee group as well.... :rofl:

Nice to meet a few new faces..... and the usual ahem ol' faces.... (well not old as such but you know what I mean aye)

Yep I split off from the group in Peak Rd..... had a awesome wedding to attend.
Got home shattered....

Keystone and Nicksta - we need to do this again......:yes: :yes: :yes: :yes:

[Croft]

Only caught the first leg of the ride on my loaner bike.... but there was NO WAY I was missing THIS ride, ha!!! :scooter:

Was GREAT to meet some more gorgeous bike chicks!!! :yes:

Cheers Jill and Nicki for organising!!! Only sorry I missed MOST of it, and would've loved to have joined in for the Kaiaua GP.

Be looking out for the next one.!! :sunny:

[Scorpygirl]

Hi all

Finally I have got a few minutes to be able to type a few words. Firstly thank you so much Nicksta and Keystone for organising this ride. For me it was my first group ride and the first out to some of the west country roads. I had a really good time and it was so cool to meet new people - especially LteeJay and KittyHawk. The lunch and chin-wag at Muriwai was a great way to spend a Saturday. The weather was just brilliant!!! :sunny:

Thank you to all those who looked out for me and gave me tips along the way. This was really, really appreciated and I will take any advice on board. :yes: I know I need to relax more and get my corners coming together more smoothly. Practice, practice, practice!!

Anyway thank you all and I hope another girl's ride can be arranged in future.

[Blondini]

I have to agree..This was fantastic and great to have the girls out in force:yes: Great to meet you all and see ya on the next one.

[Lteejay]

Big thanks to Keystone and Nicksta for organising this. It was great to put faces to names, even if I have forgotten a lot of them (never been good with names). Nice to finally meet you too scorpygirl and thanks to Draco for the advice and the clean lines.
I would love to do this more often - a days riding thoroughly enjoyed :clap:

[Nicksta]

aww.. you gals are awesome!!
Jill and I will have to consult the calendars for another one now :)

[Shewolf]

Thanks to all for a great day yesterday, especially Keystone and Nicksta for organising. Great to meet everyone and put faces to nicks.

Maybe more of us shy angels will join the Thurs night runs for a fix...I for one hang at the back and don't mind some company!

Girl, can you ride that bike or what! Now to get you one that leans over in the corners...

I'm a regular on the Thursday night rides as is Nicksta when we are not tripping around the country with our race bikes!!! White Belt is also a regular and Crashe - be good to see you out there.

[aff-man]

Yep, missed you on the Kaiaua run - you would have enjoyed it for sure - will let you know next time we are heading out there. PM me your cell.

she might have to put up with other certain hooligans though....

[Devil]

Thanks girls. Lane enjoyed herself, pity we couldn't hang around for the rest of the ride! Next time! :scooter:

[KATWYN]

I am going to go for another all girls ride if one comes up.

Riding with you lot on Saturday, was a positive, safe experience among 20 or so bikes on the road. It would have been good to carry on but unfortunetely I had to leave at peak road turnoff.

Rides in the past had put me off group rides big time, there was always some crazy testosteroney, idiot with a shit load to prove putting all the others at risk....(including one time my hubby getting taken out) so after that we made a decision to ride with 4 people max (who's riding we trusted).....

But after this girls only ride, the way it was organised and having all levels of skill riding in amongst the group - I am keen.

Cheers guys

[Stroker Girl]

:scooter: What a great day out! It was awesome to see so many biker chicks out on the road and put some faces to logins. Everyone rode really well and there was a lot of support and encouragment for the newer riders which was excellent. Keystone was right, the look on the cafe staff's faces as we pulled in at Muriwai was classic :gob:

I really enjoyed the ride out west, those roads have got some wicked sweepers along the way, then off to Haldanes for some window shopping, and to top the day off nicely a run of the Kaiaua GP followed by fish n chips.

Perfect weather, perfect company, perfect roads, what more could you ask for. Thanks to Keystone & Nicksta, you guys did an awesome job, and I look forward to the next one :yes:

[Lane]

Thanks Nicksta and Keystone19 for organising this outing...and for organising such spectacular weather.....how thoughtful ;) :sunny:

As Devil said, we both had a really nice time. It was a shame that we had to wander off so early for a wedding. Special thanks to Devil for pillioning me, so I was able to join in with the ride, so to speak.

Nice to meet some more of the ladies, and to say hi again to those I've already had the pleasure of meeting before.

Be safe :)

So now to convince Devil to sell his bike....... and then the two of you's can get a bike each..... :scooter: :scooter:

You have spoken of getting a bike for sometime...... you even like the look of a VIRAGO :love:

Just put his bike up on Trade Me... he wont even notice it is gone... :whistle:

*cough* ahh crashe.... a cunning plan indeed, alas one which might not go down too well...I don't think he'd appreciate having his beautiful bike replaced with a little GN or similar ;) heheh

:scooter: :scooter:

Perhaps, with luck fate has plans for a second bike for us this year.
Fate...or perhaps lotto *sigh*

:)

[GMGirl]

I am so bummed that I couldn't make the ride... sounds like and looked like from the pics it was a fantastic success. Please pm me for the next one as I will definitely be coming along. Good on yas. :Punk:

[Rossi Gal]

Girls....sounds like the ride was a great sucess..so bummed i couldnt make it, had it all planned then had to work :( crap!! Jill and Nic, really cool to see you guys doing this for the ladies! keep it up :) if ya need help with anything for the next one let me know ;)

[Riff Raff]

Glad you all had a good time girlies. I was going to head out in the car to catch up with you all as my wrist needs strengthening before I can ride again. But then my brother turned up at my house a day earlier than he'd arranged and was flying out the country that afternoon to go on his big OE. Figured I'd better hang out with him as I won't see him again for a few years probably (and I had to get him to the airport).

[mstriumph]

sounds as though you all had a great time! awesome pics! .......... :sunny:

[Shewolf]

Girl, can you ride that bike or what! Now to get you one that leans over in the corners...


I think I've decided to trade hubby's Magna 250 for something sporty - I'm sure he won't notice... :innocent:

Hehehehehe!!! I think Rhino would notice if the GoldWing was missing!! :dodge:

[white belt]

I would love some company at the back of the Thursday Night Ride. You only get the pointers passing you and they are normally pretty good.

Sometimes, I feel like I am on the road by myself as I can't see anyone else!, so would like to feel like I was actually riding with someone.

Come and join us, it is a great way to clock up some much needed practice.

[Nicksta]
