Bonez, Cowboyz, chancey, u4ea, roger doger (for a while), 86gsxr and me (and another chap whos name i cant remember (sorry mate)...i think thats everyone

I'll let cowboyz do the full report (since he's so good at it) but suffice it to say weather was good...just cloudy in the morning but only got better as the day wore on
went out to ashhurst to meet up with the first few chaps, then down through aokautere and through to shannon to meet up with u4ea and chancey, then back the way we came, over the track, back roads all the way to Masterton and then back up the main road (with a slight deviation) and back over the track.

86's throttle cable decided to give up in the middle of nowhere so he was two up with cowboyz for about half the ride and will be picking it up with a trailer when he can, other than that a bloody good ride! luckily it snapped right next to a bloody nice bloke's house and he was kind enough to let us stash it there until it can be retrieved....

ill stop now and let cowboyz finish this....just wanted to upload the pic of the bikes who actually made it to masterton and hung around for a coffee, etc...

*** added another photo so cowboyz doesnt feel left out since the big greenie was waaaay of in the background in the 1sst one ***

Fuck thats a sexy bike on the end.. whose is that then? No Bonez.. the OTHER END!

I'll get the job of writing a report cause ya know I love it.

Got home from work this morning and run up to Storms place to see if he was planning on riding today. He reminded me that he only rides twice a year and we used up one of his rides last weekend so he is saving his next one for later in the year. Fair enough. (he also added something about being nice to his wife and taking her to wellington or something but I gave up listening by then)

Off to Mobil to find 85gsxr and Bonez waiting patiently. Filled with gas and Yod made an appearance. Good. Off to Shannon to meet up with the girls. Real nice run down to Shannon. Good pace and the bike was feeling good. Down in Shannon found out that Chancey had the lack of fuel thing going on with her bike so had U4ea's son? running round getting fuel for her. Sorted that out and off to the pahiatua track. On the way GarryH was on a wander so he turned round and followed us. Met Roger Doger at the bottom of the track and he showed us the fast way over the hill. Poor 9 got a real good workout but just couldn't get it to go round corners fast enough to keep up. Oh well. Fuel stop in Pahiatua and everyone caught up again.
Half way out to masterton Roger doger left us and headed home. GarryH showed some speed and disappeared. So that left Chancey, U4ea, Yod, 86gsxr Bonez and I weaving through the back roads. Had a real good groove going with following Bonez and 86 behind me and yod following up and all over a sudden 86 and yod disappeared. Couple of km later I thought that didnt seem right. Very unusual that 86 is not right on my tail so better go looking. Found 86 shaking his head puffing on a ciggy. broken Throttle cable and the poor suzuki wasnt going anywhere. I think 86 just wanted a ride on the zx9. We did find a helpful farmer who stored the bike for us and we were off again.

Now if you want to change the handling of your bike heres a tip. Throw 100kgs on the back, add a tank bag and then ride across a thin coating of shingle. That was an interesting trip into Masterton.

GarryH was waiting at the Mobil for us. Looked like he had been there a fair while too but we were all looking for coffee. We went up the road for a cafe and I think GarryH had been waiting too long cause he didn't stop but the rest of us enjoyed a chat and coffee. I might just note in the photo I pulled up first. No one wanted to park next to me! Snobs!

Trip home was a bit better 2up. Getting used to having 86 on the back and come up the highway then over the track and back down to Levin.

Great day out. Bike was fantastic. Company wasn't too shabby either. Cheers guys.

well that was a fantastic day .. love them roads out the back of Pahiatua, was really in the groove and some damn nice sweepers, just had to dodge a few sheep out on the road .. shingle that was not signposted, & the odd spot of cow dung

spent most of the time out the back which was fine .. but the boys waved u4ea & me on so we was off .. go to a main intersection & this time it was us girls chilling for 20 odd mins ..

Figured something had gone wrong but decided it was best to stay put til someone came & told us wot was wrong...

yup unusual sight seeing 86 being pillioned .. ohh yeah Al you have felt that sensation once before ... (manfield superbikes :yes: )

once the food situation was sorted & chilled out sitting round talking, started feeling real tired .. so a quiet cruise back home .. rescue mission will be tomorrow poor suzie having to keep company with them dirt bikes .. how degrading .. mind you guess she gonna tell them a few stories ... but then they could corrupt her & let her know how much fun in the dirt could be ....


watch it 86 .. she may never recover !!!!!!:shit:

i had a ball guys...nice to get out with a few other like minded individuals, makes the road seem so much more fun....and the bourbons taste better when ya get home

the GPS said 294kms covered so not a bad effort. the little red viffer went well and the new fairing and oil filter are still attached so my spanner work seems acceptable, but the more i ride with you lot, the more im gonna crave a few extra horses! was getting bit miffed when im hitting redline in every gear and the big green meanie (cowboyz) cruises past effortlessly every time like im standing still! it is nice on those twisties tho

only a couple of dodgy moments - one where a horse trailer going the opposite way was over the white line and i was trying hold a very similar line in the gravel! :gob: and the second when i found a false neutral as i was about to put it into a sharp right going up the east side of the track so when i did finally get a gear i was already well over and the rear decided to take a wee skate :shit: but it all came right in the end

oh, and the wee wifey wasn't too bugged that i stayed out past my bedtime so all good there too!

laffing ... good on ya :D ... sure was an excellent day to ride ... weather sure held up a treat ...

horse floats can be a bugger ... went to marton yesterday stuck behind a camper van & three horse floats .. none would move over .. only about 30 of us cars behind them ...

I always pull over either in road or nice driveway when towing muh horses cause i know how frustrating it is .. & you have to be mindful that its always different towing a live weight to a dead weight ...

Good days ride. When you guys stopped at Masterton I carried on up the Rimutakas and stopped at the Summit Cafe. Actually quite strange that there where no bikes there the whole time I was stopped except for a guy on a 955 Truimph that pulled up and had a short chat. Headed down the hill as I decided to do the Akatawara'a to see if I still disliked it. Was thinking of dropping in the the cemetery to see if I could fing either of the 2 Bruces memorials but decided to leave that for another day. A little further up the road dunno why I stopped at the Bluebank Brueberry orchard and picked some Brueberries (DUH) and had to eat a few while picking to make sure I was getting the right ones. The Akatawaras where very pleasant riding at a very relaxed pace. One the other side I meet two big hire campervans heading in in convoy dunno if they where planning on going all the way through as I certainly wouldn't wanna and turning around wouldn't be easy.

Just out of Shannon I saw Chancey and Cowboys with 86 on the back gave them a wave but wasn't going to stop.

Now shall I head down there again today to take some pics of that corner Merv and Str8 need identifying ...

A great day guys! Apart from my throttle cable of course, but that's biking. As always, it came just when it wasn't needed, as we were in a real good groove at the time. I'm just glad you were behind me Yod, so I wasn't left too stranded:yes:

Amazing timing too, just outside that farm, and the guy being so helpful. Chanceyy and I will drive over today with a trailer and pick her up. Thanks Chanceyy for everything, and thanks Barry for the trailer, there may be a few beers waiting for you when you get back:yes:

You're a legend Cowboyz, and yeah, I only broke down so I could sample the Green Machine - nice! It was great fun being on the back, and the 9 sounded really barky and the acceleration was awesome, even if you were taking it easy. Big thanks:yes:

So, even without my mecanical problems it was yet another great day with a great bunch of people.

Hope you made it to the lake Bonez, great to meet you Yod and Phil (nice moves there mate), cheers Garry. No chainsaws eh u4ea:yes: We'll all do it again real soon!

Better get off the PC now, breakfasts ready:yes:

Made it the Lake Ferry ok. Stopped in at Matinbourgh for a cuppa. Few riders there. Obviously too stuck up to give the time of day to a gent riding something over a few years old. (note- failed attempt at humour) But I'm over it. A German helmeted gent on a Harley at Masterton was obviously overwelmed by the brute power of his bike. One could go around corners faster on my Honda C50 stepthough (another of which is about to enter the bonez household). Needless to say the CX rattled on by and left him to it. One of those R.U.Bs I've been hearing about no dought. Keep practicing ol bean. You'll get there. Nice bike btw.

Sucked a few cocks (Fighting Cocks that is) last night and got up this morning then headed off while my fellow work mates lay in getting over there hangovers. Helped unrap a couple of traction engines ready for their trip back to Feilding before I left. Now that's a great way to see the country! Met up with a nice gent in Masterton on a TDM850 that was on his way to Wanganui. Hope you have a good run mate whoever you were.

200 kms before breakfast is a great way to start a day. Stopped in for a coffee at Cowboyz work. Seems some folk don't like the size of his golf courses holes, then on the see my mate Doug. The Pantahs ignition switch is playing up so he may transplant a Honda unit I gave him.

Great few days all round. Good to catch up with a few more KBers. See I don't bite. Well, not often anyway...........

Chanceyy and I had a very pleasant drive to Alfredton to retrieve her, and ended up chatting for an hour or so with the lovely couple who put her up for the night.

It turns out that the farmer and I had a few mutual acquaintances! Funnily enough, the last time one of our numbers needed assistance I knew the people in the farmhouse as well! Must be providence, and just goes to show there are good people everywhere:yes:

Thanks for the trailor Barry, much appreciated!!!

And thanks Chanceyy for everything! You've been fantastic:yes:
