I'll be there - on the GSXR in case we get lost near the pub.

What did you do to your leg?
Get hold of nodrog, he's pretty handy at modifications to accommodate this kind of thing.

For those of you going out tonight, if you plan on riding Paremoremo Rd (in front of the Prison) it has been resealled with tar and gravel this week in at least 2 places.

It still has a significant amount of loose gravel so you will probably want to avoid it.

Cheers

Cheers for the gloves dude... kept her hands toasty warm :yes: :innocent:

Thanks qks! Was a great ride as usual! Shame about the new seal... kept me on my toes!

Skidmark: cant believe you actually rode your bike with a broken ankle... :gob:


DEATHSTAR: You reminded me why I have not been on this ride for a few weeks... DONT YOU EVER OVERTAKE ME LIKE THAT AGAIN. It was just down right dangerous. My pillion just about jumped out of her seat when you when past so close. I told you in person what I will do to you if it happens again - I wasnt joking. Gee dude, an apology would have been nice... instead of the ego filled excuses.

Yea Mark seriously made me laugh last night turning up with a broken ankle....whats worse he rode home from the pub with no numberplate on.

I was surprised he didnt get pulled over on the motorway for that...

Shesh...:yes:

Mark....just be careful and dont end up with the other ankle broken.

i have actually ask anybody who was on the ride i was riding alot slower and safer.

and deathstar, you need to just chillout dude , your not proving shit by doing close overtakes give people room mate...if you don't think you can give somebody sufficient room don't pass it's not a race we are just out for an enjoyable ride. we may all joke about who was first to dairy flat and all that , but seriously it isn't a race , and it proves nothing if we are going to end up pulling you and your hyosung out of a ditch...

take it easy, i used to get big telling off's from people for doing stupid shit like that, and i damn well deserved it looking back, sit there enjoy the ride enjoy the scenery get some cornering practise, but don't be a dick about it, listen to somebody whose been there, because trust me trying to prove shit infront of others, just ends up with you sliding down the road, once again ive been there.

and i think your a good guy, don't want to see you hurt mate.

i don't mean to have a go at you just trying to help, if it sounded like i was having a go at you read it again and again until you get that i'm not and i'm trying to help.

you will gain alot more respect from your peers if you don't do stupid crap.

on another note , thanks once again for another great evening qk's sorry i ddn't get a chance to thank you last night dawn , but as always it's much appreciated you organise this.

i may be taking a wee while off the ride because i'm tempted to strip down the bike and restore her to her former glory, so until next time take care all and enjoy the ride.

Cheers: Mark

Yeah was my first thursday night ride. I live right near Westgate and never knew all those fabulous roads existed! I'll be frequenting those bad boys now :)

Good having Frosty follow me on his old girl then let him through as he seemed more commited than me :P

Classic watching the gixxer thou come past on the back wheel and good fun with whoever was on the hayabusa behind me on the big long sweepers :) Damn those speedos get up there fast.

Buster, me and mammaryman had a good chuckle at the pub too. You'll see more of us thats for sure.

yeah took my gpx on there once, the motard guys were out and said if ya want ya can go on .....so i went home put my leathers on came back and had some fun.....first time i got peg down on the gpx was on that track....good times

that thing was horrible to try go thru a corner on though, zxr 250 is better

i prefer a models as you get more feel but the c model i had went through corners easier a bit more comfortable but i didn't feel like i was in full control of the bike, on the a model i did, sorry about the life history i'm done lol
