There's enough of you to start a Hyosung Riders Club like the Honda one.

You'll be needing the breakdown assistance too :rofl: :chase:

They look bloody good in black tho. If I'd seen a black one before I got my ZXR I'd probably be riding a Hyobag myself. That plus hearing Carbacca's exhaust on Mav's 250 ride. Gotta love the purr of the v-twin. Sounds like the unreliability bugs have been mostly ironed out in the later models too. There's clearly a reason people are buying them in spades (aside from just that you can buy them brand new).

I prefer Saturday.

But I might have some issues making it this time since my brake pads seem to be fucked :angry:

Saturday is a biggish ride to farewell the Mcjims. (The smaller ride looks set to be a good 'un for us fiddy riders)

I could be persuaded to organise a decent Newbie n00b ride in a week or two for a select few... (that is, no big bikes, no n00bs on big bikes and no n00bs who feel the need to compensate with speed and shit riding skill for having small genitalia).

Fancy bumping into a few more KB riders up there eh. Was beauuuuuuutiful weather so I had to get a ride in before flying down to Chch tonight. Obstacle and I had just finished our fish and chips when you guys arrived.

Will definately be heading up there again. Not too far and nothing too technical unless you push it. Perfect for learners who are working on their open road skills (including me obviously). We went up Old North Rd on the way which pretty mint.. Missed the turnoff on the way back and ended up on Peak Rd which takes you back to Kaukapakapa :lol:

How nice are those last few sweepers before the turnoff to Shelly Beach tho! :whistle:

we went up old north road too but took the PROPER way and ended up in helensville and headed all the way up south head from there til the road road went gravel, turned around to shelly beach and ran into you guys

definitely beautiful roads thats perfect for 250's
